Summary: Dimitrios is excellent. I went with my friend and he drove both of us around Athens to look at the famous sites in the city. Then he drove along the cape and told us the sites along the way. We stopped by the lake for a little bit and few other view points for photos. We really want to stay for the sunset at the temple of poseidon. He's flexible and we stayed and watch the sunset. We took a lot of pictures with the sunset. It is really nice to see the temple as the sun rays light on it. In summary, Dimitrios is informative and flexible to our schedule.

Summary: Dimitrios is an awesome guide. Not only is he a font of historical knowledge but he also offers a unique Greek point of view on Greek history, both ancient and recent. I’m not sure what I enjoyed more, the actual destination or the conversation during the journey. As for the temple site here is a significant amount of colonades, walls and pathways that enable you to put yourself right in the timeframe of the temples heyday. Should you have the pleasure to book with Dimitrios be sure to have him tell you how the Aegean Sea got its name?
