    About the ride

    Experience Athens in comfort with a private and fully personalised sightseeing ride. Together with your English-speaking Welcome Driver, you can choose which places to visit, how long to spend at each stop, and whether to follow our suggested itinerary or create your own custom route.

    Your driver is a friendly local professional with excellent knowledge of the city and its highlights. They’ll share useful insights, stories and recommendations along the way, helping you discover Athens like a knowledgeable friend, without the pressure of strict schedules or crowded group tours.

    This flexible, door-to-door experience is the easiest and most comfortable way to explore the city’s top landmarks, hidden gems and scenic viewpoints. Choose your pace, personalise your route, and enjoy a smooth, stress-free journey designed entirely around your interests.

    Suggested Itinerary

    Explore the 1Acropolis Area, stroll along Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, a pedestrianized street adjacent to the south slope of the Acropolis where you can also admire the ancient Theatre of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. Along the way, you will marvel at the 2Temple Of Zeus and the iconic buildings of the 3Athens Trilogy. The heart of the city beats around the 4Constitution Square, in Greek Syntagma, the meeting point for both tourists and locals. If you are lucky, you may witness the 5Change of Guards ceremony. Your experience will not be complete unless you visit 6Panathenaic Stadium or Kallimarmaro as Greeks call it.

    After exploring downtown Athens, you can visit the most spectacular viewing point of the 7Lycabettus Hill, the highest hilltop of modern Athens. Surrounded by pine trees and with a breathtaking panoramic view of the city that stretches all the way to the Port of Piraeus, it is the perfect spot for taking some fantastic photos and enjoying the scenery for a few moments.

     

    At the end of your sightseeing ride, your Welcome Driver will drop you off at your accommodation or any other central location you prefer.

    Tip: Feel free to adjust the itinerary at any point - add new stops, skip places, or spend more time at the spots you love. Your driver will happily adapt the route to your interests.

    Important Notes

    Your driver is a local, English-speaking professional. While not a licensed tour guide, they’re always happy to share stories, insights, and recommendations — much like a knowledgeable friend showing you around.

    Pickup and drop-off are included from any centrally located hotel, B&B, or apartment in the city area. Your driver will meet you at the selected location and assist you before the ride begins.

    Airport and port pickups/drop-offs are not included in the standard sightseeing ride. If you need one, simply book an additional transfer for seamless service.

    Entrance tickets are not included. Your driver can guide you on the best way to book tickets for the attractions you’d like to visit.

    The itinerary is flexible — feel free to skip stops, stay longer, or add new locations based on your interests and available time.

    Please mention any special requirements (service animals, accessibility needs, oversized luggage, etc.) in the booking notes so we can ensure a smooth and comfortable experience.

    Frequently asked questions
    Expand

    What is the cancellation policy?

    Any cancelation that is requested up to 24 hours prior to the operation time is entitled to a 100% coupon or 100% refund.

    In case of cancellation in less than 24 hours prior to the operation time or in case of no-show of the customer, you are not eligible for any form of refund. 

    Will there be an official tour guide?

    An official tour guide is not included because the overall experience is centered around the driver and the local’s perspective. Although the drivers are very knowledgeable regarding the points of visit, at no point can they be compared with a licensed tour guide who can give more in depth information regarding historic facts and information. If you would like to include an official tour guide in the experience please let us know via email after the booking is completed.

    Can I customize the tour based on my needs?

    Of course, that is one of the main benefits of having a Welcome experience. You can customize every last bit of the experience, from points of visit to time spent per landmark to adding in an extra food stop.

    What happens after I book?

    Once you complete your booking you will receive an email with more details about the Athens Highlights tour, your Welcome driver, and any more information you need to know regarding this experience. Feel free to reach out to our customer service team at [email protected] for any specific questions regarding the experience.

    Can i book my pickup from anywhere?

    Hey there! Just a quick note: our transfer pickups are set within the city (usually from a Hotel or residential address) to make your journey smoother. But no sweat! If you're arriving at an airport or port, you can book a transfer to the city center and share your transfer number with our support team so that we can combine the two, and we'll ensure a seamless transition to your destination so that you can start a great sightseeing ride. Let's make your travel experience a breeze!

    Can I bring my luggage with me?

    Yes, you’re absolutely welcome to bring your luggage along during your experience. Just make sure to mention the number of suitcases in the notes section when booking. This helps us assign the right vehicle so everything fits comfortably and there are no issues on the day.

    Useful tips
    Expand

    Dress Code

    We recommend that you wear comfortable clothes and shoes and be equipped with wet weather gear if rain is expected. Please note that religious sites require modest attire- knees and shoulders must be covered.

    Summer Essentials

    In the summer months, the sun is especially strong (even on cloudy days) so we recommend that you wear a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen to protect yourself. Also, be sure to drink enough water throughout the day to stay hydrated.

    Local Currency

    We recommend you always keep local currency on you (euro) as many local merchants do not accept cards as payment.

    Photos

    Photography is permitted in most historical sites unless otherwise mentioned.

    Accessibility & Special Needs

    Should anyone in your group have special needs or have advanced accessibility requirements, please specify upon booking and we will make sure to accommodate your needs and customize your tour accordingly.
