Athens Trip

Published on Oct, 2019

We were welcomed by Marios Kouloufakos who was the best thing that happened to us. He is the most amazing driver, tour guide I have ever met. He made our experience in Athens the best I could have ever imagined. His restaurant recommendations were totally awesome and the sightseeing with him made our trip worthwhile. I have definitely been telling everybody that Greece is a country to visit because of Marios. Thank you thank you for the special memories that were created because of you.
