Got to experience all of the sites of Ancient Corinth and Athens in a single day - thanks to Christos - When we knew we were stopping in Athens on our cruise, we wanted to experience both the places the Apostle Paul visited in Corinth and the sites of Athens. After some looking, we found Greece Taxi. They did a great job helping us plan our visit. On the day of the tour, Christos picked us up right on time and had a great plan for the day. We would see the Corinth Canal and Corinth first then see Athens in the afternoon, to ensure we didn’t have any challenges getting back to the ship. Christos did an amazing job and made the tour even more special by showing videos about ancient Corinth on the drive, giving us maps and books describing the history of the places we would be visiting, giving us some postcards and presents, and even working with us for a quick stop to get some Baklava from his favorite place. What an amazing day, and what made it special was Christos and his passion and friendship. I would definitely recommend Christos and Greek Taxi anytime you are in Athens.

An Overwhelming and Excellent Tour - Our Driver was amazing! He was friendly, courteous, well informed, kind hearted man. He picked us up at our hotel, kept us engaged with lots of information on the sites we were going to be visiting throughout the day. Answered all of our questions with enthusiasm. He had water bottles ready for us at all times. Drove safely! Just an incredible tour guide. Sites were extraordinary and overwhelming. We are so glad that we did this tour!

Perfect Day in Greece - This was an excellent choice for our day. My mom and I were coming off a Celestyal cruise and planning to self-drive most of our time in Greece... however we didn't want to deal with trying to navigate the big city of Athens. So I booked this tour to pick us up at the cruise port and drop us at our rental station at the end of the day. Our driver was very friendly and spoke good English. We were pleasantly surprised to received several very interesting books about the locations we were visiting as part of the tour... and he also played us a number of videos with excellent information which made the drive pass quickly. As clearly noted in Greece Taxi's info the driver is not a guide and cannot accompany you into the archaeological sites -- however, they are very good about showing you exactly where to go and answering any questions, making it very easy to experience everything at your own pace. Our driver also introduced us to a fascinating elderly gentleman in Corinth who has spent more than 40 years hand painting beautiful museum replicas -- pricing was very reasonable... if we'd visited Corinth on our own we would have missed him so this was a highlight of the day. Overall... if you prefer a private independent style of touring, don't hesitate to book with Greece Taxi, it's an excellent choice!

Amazing tour of Ancient Corinth and area - An awesome day spent with Spiiros. Highly recommend private tour that can be customized to meet individual wants/needs. We visited the Corinthian canal, Port of Kenchreai where Paul sailed from Corinth to Ephesus, site of the 4th century Isthmian Games, Akrokorinthos Castle, St Paul’s Church and mural, and Ancient Corinth ruins with Temple of Apollo and Bema where Paul was brought to judgement for false teaching.

Apostle Paul Steps - It was an amazing experience to be at the palace where Apostle Paul stood 2000 years ago. Reading the scriptures gives a new perspective after being to Corinth. A special thanks to our wonderful guide Christos who is knowledgeable and made sure we got to spend enough time to explore.

Fantastic tour! Wonderful experience! - The whole trip was amazing! Loved our driver Christos! He even showed us videos on the Apostle Paul in Corinth and some others relating to Apostle Paul.
He was very helpful and directed us to a wonderful seafood restaurant at one of the stops. Definitely worth doing if you are interested in going to Ancient Corinth, Corinth and Athens.
