Having just returned from Athens (7/28/2026) - I wanted to share our experience with you- If you’re looking to tour Athens and haven’t heard about George’s, let me tell you … It’s no longer George’s Taxi Service. It’s Georges Premium Tours. We found George’s when reading a Rick Steve’s guide book on Greece, Athens, and the Greek Islands. We were looking for a special tour around Athens after a week long cruise. We reached out to George’s and interacted with Pavlos and Sofia by email several weeks before our trip. They answered all our questions, plus helped us arrange tours and pre-purchase tickets. Everything was booked, set, and confirmed. We had a Greek tour of the Acropolis, Parliament’s changing of the guard, the ancient Agora, museums, Mount Lycabettus, an authentic Greek Lunch, and city sites along the way. Plus the comfort of a Mercedes sedan with a dedicated driver. The day was spectacular. We were greeted warmly by Kristos, from George’s, in the lobby of the Hotel Grand Bretagne promptly at 07:45 and our day began. Kristos and George’s did everything they could to make sure we had an amazing day. We arrived at the Acropolis to meet Yannis our private guide and we were off touring the ancient site. Afterward, Kristos did everything he could so we could see the 12:00 ceremonies at Parliament. Then off to see Athens in the A/C comfort of a Black Benz. The Agora, Lycabettus, Olympic Stadium, Lunch, and a quick museum visit. We saw all the highlights, toured the city, then back to our hotel, after an 8 hour tour. Kristos was an excellent driver, very kind, and he made certain we were safe. For us, this was a perfect premium tour. George’s made it possible. We definitely recommend them for touring Athens, in comfort, and would use them again. Email them, tour in a Benz, have an excellent experience, easy, done ! We would give them 5 stars. -PB
