smilingcruiser Posted September 22, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2010 We recently cruised from Istanbul to Athens on the RSSC Mariner. At Athens, we had arranged for Spiros at Athens Taxi to meet us at the port and spend that day and the next showing us his beautiful city. Unfortunately, due to a family emergency, he could not conduct our tour, but he sent Theodore, who was a wonderful guide. The first day, he showed us the usual sights in Athens and the next was spent at Delphi. His knowledge of Greek history was amazing and he had a wonderful time with him. ON the 3rd morning, he picked us up and took us to the airport. Our only regret was that we were not able to spend more time in this wonderful city and with such a wonderful guide.

jschnack Posted September 23, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 23, 2010 We had the wonderful experience to tour with Spiros Halkides of Spiros Tours (AthensTaxi). He took us for a full day tour of Delphi which is a site not to miss if time permits. Spiros spent 25 years in the US and speaks flawless English. His knowledge of the historical sites of Athens and Delphi added considerably to the experience. However, it was his discussion of life in Greece at the current time that really added to our understanding and enjoyment of our time in Greece. His dining recommendations were out of this world. We were treated like family! The entire experience from booking, confirmation and picking us up to the actual tour went flawlessly. I heartily recommend Spiros for your day in Athens.
