Post-Cruise Athens Tour Recommendations

Our Cruise ends Piraeus October 7th and we have three nights booked at Athens Gate Hotel. Any recommendations of good tour companies for Athens and then a day trip to Corinth? Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thanks,

Diana

We did a tour if Athens then Corinth with Dimitris from athenstourdriver.com. We had a great day, Dimitris was friendly and knowledgeable

You really don't need a tour in Athens. Your hotel is well located, you can walk everywhere, with exception of the National Archaeological Museum (take the metro).

For a daytrip to Corinth or elsewhere I can recommend Jordan -- he's a treasure; have used him 4-5 times on various trips to Athens. http://www.athens-tours.gr/

Thank you SpainAlien and Cruisemom42 - I appreciate those helpful recommendations!

We recently toured Athens with Hellenic Private Tours:

https://hellenicprivatetours.com/

Of the 11 private tours I arranged during our recent cruise, our tour of Athens was one of the most outstanding. Frank was a great communicator throughout the process and allowed us to competely customize our day. From the pick up at the port to the various attractions, our day went seamlessly!. Frank was our driver and our guide was Effie (sp?). She is an archeologist and her comprehensive knowledge and depth of her historical anecdotes provided a deep appreciation of what we were seeing (and what we might have missed if we had DIY). We chose the Acropolis Museum in addition to the major sites and they even facilitated a marvelous lunch of local cuisine.

They certainly earn all of their 5 star reviews:https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g189400-d3138366-Reviews-H_P_Tours_Hellenic_Private_Tours-Athens_Attica.html

Although I have not had time to post my review yet, I give them 5 plus stars!

They have a half day tour, as well. Would it be worth doing the half day tour with them?
