DAY TRIPS · ATHENS
One spare day and a long list. These 4 private day trips in Athens are the ones that repay the early start, each with its price, its real length and the one thing to check before you pay.
Review of a private Athens to Meteora day trip with three monasteries, Kastraki lunch, Thermopylae, private transport, and practical tips.
“Dimitri was a great driver, very friendly and accommodating to our needs and timing wishes. Was a great trip and would recommend a private tour for this area.”
Review of the 14-hour private Athens trip to Delphi, Meteora, Thermopylae, and dinner, with costs, timing, transport, and practical tips.
“Don’t be intimidated by the long drive: this tour was an amazing experience from start to finish. Our guide, Marselo, was personal, wonderfully knowledgable and took care to make sure our every need was met. We enjoyed a day filled with learning, breathtaking views, and great memories - finished off with a delicious meal! Thank you for putting together such a special day.”
Review of a private Athens trip to Cape Sounio, with Poseidon’s Temple, Aegean swimming, Greek coffee, local food, and flexible guiding.
“Although our tour was confirmed by both Viator and local guide up to one day before our excusing anthems and were charged, guide never showed up. He didn’t answer my calls nor texts. I called Viator, and they couldn’t contact him either. With only one day in port off our cruise ship, we had no alternative. It to hire a taxi to drive us to sounion. I expect a refund from Viator it it doesn’t compensate us for a missed opportunity.”
Review of Athens to Cape Sounio: swim at Kape Beach, see Poseidon’s Temple, visit Lavrio, and enjoy a small-group coastal escape.
“Me and my friends had such an awesome time on this tour. We all agreed the best thing we did in Athens. Our highlights were that we got to hang out at the beach with drinks and enjoy a swim and the sun as well as all the stories and mythology that our guide shared with us. Our day ended with a pretty sunset at the temple of Poseidon and then we had the most amazing Greek meal at a nice local harbour town that Dimitri recommended. Overall I recommend this, such a great day !”
A boat, a castle, a waterfall or a very long lunch.
