Greetings |
George, just a brief message to tell you how much we enjoyed our trip to Greece. We had a wonderful time and we are grateful that we had such a fabulous driver and historian. We have told many people about traveling to many parts of your beautiful country and admiring the unbelievable historical places under your expert guidance. We hope to go back someday and you probably will be one of the first to know.
Have a great Christmas Holiday.

We found your service on the web as we were planning our vacation to Athens. My wife found another service and booked them for an Airport pick up and a trip to Delphi. Well, the payment evidently was not transacted for whatever reason and they never picked us up from the Airport or contacted us. So I contacted your service for our trip to Delphi. When we talked to you, you said NO PROBLEM to the day we wanted and the time. It was great to have someone be able to provide this service at a moments notice. John picked us up at our hotel on time and ready to go. He was absolutely delightful. His knowledge was appreciated and he tolerated all of our tourist questions. John took us to Delphi. His vehicle was “new car” clean and extremely comfortable. John had books about Delphi for us to read on our way to the destination. A CD with a photo collection was also given to us as a souvenir for when we get home. It was full of beautiful photos of Greece (I do not think there are any other kind of photos of Greece). We stopped by a quant bakery in a town on our way to Delphi where we met the bakers and had some incredible bakery goods. This was something that no commercial tour could ever find or provide. This is the benefit of using your services. John then took us to a Monastery also on the way to Delphi. This was another superb stop on the way that made our trip even more meaningful. Our tour of Delphi was awe inspiring. The ruins, the museum and the views are truly Greece at it’s best. For lunch John also took us to a delightful restaurant. We had another wonderful meal. The food, atmosphere and service were the best. He took us to a museum in town that documented the re-discovery of ancient Delphi. This was another stop that I am sure is lost to most tourists and is a great benefit to having your services. By the time our day was done we consider John a friend and he is more than welcome to visit us in California USA, although I am not sure I could provide as nice of a tour of Northern California as he provided to Delphi. John also mentioned a tour of Corinth that made us want to return to Greece as soon as we can. Thanks for making our vacation especially nice. In conclusion, your service and commitment to provide the extras enhanced our visit. THANK YOU for everything and pass our sincerest appreciations to John. Sincerely, Stephen A.

Thanks for a great trip! |
I know it has been a month since we returned from our trip, but before I forgot I just wanted to thank you for showing us around Athens! My husband and I had such a wonderful time! If we ever go again, we will certainly look you up and maybe next time I can learn a little bit about the history of my family.
Hope you enjoy the picture! Thanks again!

Hello from Sweden |
Dear George, family and staff:
Greetings form cool and rainy Sweden, we are having unusually cold weather for summer while Greece is suffering with such high temperatures. We were only glad to return to Sweden to have cooler temperatures, but missed Greece and the people we met. We want to thank you so much for providing the four of us with safe, comfortable and cool taxi rides. It was really a pleasure to meet your drivers and spent a short time with them on our rides. They are all so helpful , knowledgeable and spoke great English and we felt very safe during the rides in Athens! We would have no problem recommending your company to anyone who will travel to Greece. We also enjoyed our day trip to Delphi with Fotios, it was great the you were able to provide us with another great driver when you were booked, we appreciated that service as well as it allowed us to visit that area of Greece. This was so much better than a regular bus tour! Again, thanks for everything and all your help, we look forward to returning to Greece and using your services. Your Sincerely Fay & Lars Tegemyr - Sweden Bradley and Erin Alexander - Canada fay.tegemyr@telia.com

Thank you from Seattle |
Dear George:
We are back home in Seattle. Thank you for making our trip down to Nafplio so special. You took care that we would see everything on our itinerary, and I was thrilled. It was the highlight of our stay in the Peloponnese.
We really appreciated your insights, humor on government, politics and culture; and also your knowledge of the archaeological sites. (Our gratitude also for keeping us fed.)
Easter in Nafplio was splendid. The church service on Saturday evening was truly moving, and on Sunday we had a wonderful holiday meal at a taverna recommended by the Hotel Byron called, O Pseiras, Porou 5, Pronoia, Nafplio.
We walked the "999 steps" up to the Palamidi and were rewarded by the beautiful view. We also spent a lot of time relaxing on the deck of our hotel room.
I forwarded your website information to the travel writers and editors of The Seattle Times (the newspaper I recently worked at).
Also I've attached a picture of a Seattle sunset over the Puget Sound as seen from the deck of our house; and one of my illustrations which was published with a book of Richard's poems.
Best regards,
Celeste Ericsson gold_ericsson@msn.com

Jan & I just wanted to sent you a note |
Dear George:
Jan & I just wanted to sent you a note to thank you for spending a great day with us up at Meteroa and providing us with so much knowledge surrounding Greek mythology. John's tour around Athena was very pleasant as well as was our tour on Crete.
We can't thank you enough for your hospitality and your assistance in getting the arrangements done for our tours. It was greatly appreciated.
If you're ever coming to Canada ( Toronto ), or if you need any favors, please don't hesitate to contact Jan or myself. We will be glad to pass your name and your services on to all our friends and acquaintances who might be traveling to Athens in the future.
Best regards and with much thanks:

I want to thank you so much |
Hi George: I want to thank you so much and also the Lord for checking your e-mail. Makis was outstanding. We were the only ones on the cruise that had a tour of Athens. Why? Because all the tours were cancelled because we got in a day early. I can not say enough about your service or about Makis. He provided us with a great view of your Athens. I would recommend everyone who is going to Athens to go to your e-mail and book a tour with you. I will make sure I give all your information to our travel agent. He will get a lot of credit from his customers for referring you. Why not start your service in other port of calls? It is a great way to see a place and it is less expensive that the tours from the ship. Next time I will be in touch will be when I arrive home. Again thanks for your help and tell Makis we all said he is the best. Tom Tirney trt100@aol.com

Ag Constantinos to Athens Airport |
Dear George, I am writing this email to say thank you from me and my friends for the arrangements to collect us from the Seacat Ferry at Ag. Constantinos, to Athens, on the 24th June. As I was on the early trip, I did not meet you but your colleague, Michael, was perfect and collected us immediately from the ferry and delivered us comfortably, to Athens Airport. Please give him our thanks for his good company and stopping for a coffee on the way. When you are making arrangements for several people, over a long distance ( in my case, England ) and time is tight, it is always with some concern that you hope nothing will go wrong ! Thanks to your excellent organisation, nothing went wrong. We were all delighted. Next year we will be coming to Athens to collect the boat ( we do this every year for 20 years ) and hope to have a day before we sail to see Athens or around, so I will be contacting you again. Good luck to you, your colleagues and family and thanks from me and my friends.
Kala nichta ! Andrew
