8 Days Peloponnese: Sightseeing, Historical & Tasting Private Tour from Athens

Terrific tour of the Peloponnese

We did a 6 day private tour of the Peloponnese with Christos as our driver. The trip was everything I hoped it would be, and Christos was a fantastic driver and very knowledgeable about everywhere we went. We did not have a guide inside the sites, just wandered around on our own, but because of the great background Christos gave us at each location we did just fine. We prefer to eat local rather than in tourist restaurant and Christos gave us great recommendations. We were very comfortable in his car and he was a very conscientious driver; the roads were windy but his driving was smooth and while I can sometimes get car sick on that kind of road I had no problem at all. Given that it was just the start of the tourist season we had very little in the way of crowds. The weather was perfect. The hotels that were chosen for us by Greece Taxi were terrific, and we especially loved the Hotel Europa in Olympia. The private tour that we did was similar to their 8 day tour but without Delphi (which we did while we were in Athens) and a couple of other places. Christos usually took us the scenic route so we had the opportunity to see a lot of the country in addition to the ancient sites. The ancient sites are uneven and can be hot and dusty; I recommend sturdy shoes or light hiking boots at minimum. Don’t let that s are you away from seeing them; they are unlike anything you have seen anywhere else! This was a perfect tour for us and just what I hoped it would be.

Excellent restaurant with excellent view

Our seating was early as we had an early flight the next day. Nevertheless, it was dark and from our seats we could see the Acropolis at night. It was a spectacular view. The food and wine and service were top quality.
