Athens Tours in Greece: Private Tours & Shore Excursions

Welcome to Timeless Athens Tours, a licensed Greek tour operator based right here in Athens. We show visitors our city the way we’d show a friend, and if you’re looking for the best Athens tours in Greece, you’re in good hands: private Athens tours, shore excursions from Piraeus Cruise Port and day trips across Greece, all planned around you. You travel in a comfortable Mercedes with your own professional English-speaking driver, at your own pace, for a fixed price agreed before you arrive. Would you like a licensed guide too? We can add one for an extra fee, subject to availability. We’ve been running Athens tours, Greece day trips and cruise excursions for more than 20 years, so every detail is in experienced hands.

Short on time? Start with a classic Athens city tour, with the Acropolis and the Parthenon as its highlights.

If you’d rather take things slowly, a private walking tour lets you wander the old streets of the historic center with someone who knows them well. Only passing through? Our airport layover tours are planned around your flight times.

When you’re ready to leave the city behind, we’ll take you to Delphi, home of the ancient oracle, to Corinth and its famous canal, to the seaside town of Nafplio, to Olympia, where the Olympic Games began, and up to the monasteries of Meteora. Along the way, our drivers and guides share the real stories and everyday life of Greece, the way locals know them, not from a script.

Our prices are fixed and good value, and the car is just for you and your party. Tell us your dates and what you’d love to see, and we’ll send you a free quote and help you plan your trip.
