We're from the U.S. and were connected to Siva Travel as the local partner of the travel agency we used to arrange our Greece trip (Audley). Maria and Anastasia were absolutely wonderful contacts, available immediately whenever we had a question or concern. We found that very reassuring and helpful, especially since we were in Greece for the first time. Every arrangement they assisted us with went so smoothly and the people and activities they connected us to -- including the tours and guides, drivers, and even the people who dropped off tickets to us in person -- were all amazing. Everywhere we went we had a driver and a friendly reception. It was so effortless and low stress for us; we felt we were in good hands the whole time. We toured the Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum and the Plaka neighborhood of Athens with Stavroula (who goes by Stevie). She was so sweet and knowledgable and taught us so much. She was able to answer any question we threw at her. She was flexible and gave us options, but we always went with her suggestions and were never disappointed. We also really enjoyed our "Local Life" tour on Santorini with Vicky. (As one part of that tour we cooked a meal at a farm with the farmer's daughter-in-law, using farm-grown local foods. I was concerned prior to the trip that I might have to decline food and potentially offend our host due to my celiac disease and resulting food restrictions, but the wonderful ladies at Siva were able to confirm with the host ahead of time that it wouldn't be a problem -- and it wasn't.) Through Vicky we learned so much about the history, architecture, geology, agriculture and economy of Santorini. She's a local and ran into people she knew everywhere, so we knew we were getting the inside scoop ;-). Since it was our first trip to Greece we had splurged on private tours, and really didn't know what to expect since personality can make a huge difference when literally spending hours with a guide, but both Stevie and Vicky were so personable that we felt totally comfortable the entire time. They were both absolutely wonderful. Thank you Maria and Anastasia of Siva and tour guides Stavroula (Stevie) and Vicky for helping us have such an amazing trip to Greece!

We were on a Mediterranean cruise and one stop was in Santorini. We did not want to book our cruise ship tours so we booked a private driver through Siva Private Tours who took our family of 14 on a private tour of Santorini for a 6 1/2 hours independent tour. Our driver picked us up at Fira Cable Car and we drove to Oia where we spent 2 1/2 hours sightseeing and shopping. Then he drove us to Perissas Beach that he recommended where we had lunch and had 3 1/2 hours of beach time on the black beach. After swimming he drove us back to Fira where we took cable car back to cruise ship. They got us back in plenty of time to board our ship. Siva was extremely helpful in planning my tour and I highly recommend them.

Our private tour lead by Sotiris Pirounias was phenomenal. He was sooo knowledgeable and engaging. I could listen to him talk all day! He even took photos for us and found the best viewpoints. We would never have learned nearly as much if we had not had his expertise. Our driver was also very professional. 10/10

Our guide was so nice and knowledgeable, she took to to ask what we wanted to learn about and tailored our half day to us. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone, especially if they get our guide!

Our tour guide, Natalia, was fantastic. Super friendly and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our day especially the Acropolis museum tour.

We booked a long excursion through Greece through a travel agent in the US (Audley). They worked with Siva for the on-the-ground logistics and details. We used private drivers and guides for our family. It was nothing but top-notch the entire time. We went all over the mainland to many sites throughout Greece and also spent some time in Crete. Every single time the driver was on time and professional and the tour guide was informative. In addition, the hotels were very nice. Well done, Siva.

My husband and I went on the Delphi tour today with Constantine (Deana). She was absolutely amazing. We could not have hoped for a better experience- she was very knowledgeable and able to share the history in an interesting and easy to follow way. Her love of the history and her enthusiasm were delightful. I am already looking on the Siva website for other tour offerings because we were so happy after our experience today. We did take a different company for the Acropolis tour before this Delphi tour and this tour was 1,000 times better!! If I could do the Acropolis tour over I would have chosen Siva.

The whole thing!!! Joanna, our guide was extremely knowledgeable, patient and so informative with all the sites and history. We then went to the Acropolis Museum which tied everything we saw and heard about together and into reality. We then toured the city and she showed us the highlights of the city before taking us to a nice Greek restaurant called Kozina. We have never had a bad meal in Greece yet and this one certainly didn't disappoint! Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend the service and, especially, Joanna!

In September 2022 my wife and I were in Athens, Greece. In Athens we wanted to see the Acropolis & the Acropolis museum so we decided to book a private tour with Silva Private Tours. Our private tour guide Ourania Panoutsou was awesome. She was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the Acropolis. She was able to answer all of our questions and took her time explaining the history of the Acropolis. If you are in Athens and want to tour the Acropolis I highly recommend that you contact Silva Private Tours and request Ourania Panoutsou as your private tour guide. You will not be disappointed.

What a great way to learn about Athens. The city is magnificent and our guide provided a wealth of information about the history of what we had seen. She was very personable and accommodating. The driver was very personable and the car was spotless. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Athens.

Our private day trip to Delphi was all we expected and more! The historical site was well worth the trip! Our guide, Foteini, was very knowledgeable and had so many interesting things to tell us! Our driver, Yannis, was great and the van that was provided for four of us was very comfortable. Lunch in the town of Delphi was delicious and the view from the restaurant was spectacular! We will definitely recommend this tour to our friends.

Wonderful perfect 4hr trip to see all we wanted in Athens. Our fantastic guide was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and catered to our multiple questions. She was excellent! Will use them again if we are ever here in the future!

Experienced and enthousiastic guide to guide us around the Acropolis and surroundings of Athens. lot’s of nice tips of what to see in the city. Highly recommended

Easy pickup straight from our hotel. Very informative and knowledgeable guide who helped us navigate the crowds and get the most from our visit. I would recommend her highly .

Awesome Temple that is impressive with the columns still standing. Beautiful standing on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean. Glad we did not miss this.
