    The guide makes the tour.

    We hired Frank for a custom tour of places near the Athens airport. We wanted to do something other than sitting at the Sofitel for the day. Grand assured us he was flexible in our itinerary. Our number 1 request was lunch at. Taverna by the sea. He took us to one that he frequents with his family. It was perfect. Frank is very knowledgeable on the history. I think he could still be giving us additional information!!!! We really enjoyed our day. But the best part of the tour was the opportunity to meet a great person!!! Thank you Frank.

    Marathon Day Tour

    What an amazing experience to see another side of Athens!! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and brought a great energy that mixed well with our group dynamic. Our driver, Christos, went ABOVE AND BEYOND!! He was always close by to pick up our group, answered all of our questions, and made sure to keep us well hydrated on our tours! Poseidon’s temple at the end was breathtaking!! An AMAZING experience I will never forget! 10/10!!!

    Marathon Tour Review

    Our group tour of Marathon was phenomenal! 10/10 for service!! Our driver, Christos was fantastic! He was wonderful and always made sure our group was taken care of and enjoying our time. Our tour guide Averkios was knowledgeable and energetic. He taught us so much about the history and mythology of Greece. Christos answered all of our questions as well. The lunch by the sea is a core memory of mine. We will never forget this experience. Thank you, thank you to Christos, Averkios, and HP Tours!!

    Response from the operator: Dear Amy, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re truly delighted to hear that you had such a fantastic time with us! Your satisfaction is our highest priority, and we’re pleased to know we could contribute to a memorable experience. We look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you back and providing our services again in the future. Until then, please accept our warmest regards and best wishes. Sincerely, Frank Kotsiopoulos Managing Director H.P. Tours

    Hellenic Private Tours is the best

    We chose the Hellenic Private Marathon Tour because we wanted to see the Temple of Artemis. Our guide, Gregory, let us know that it was off the beaten path. Not many tourist choose it, but it was beyond our expectations. Gregory brought the experience to life. Also, there is so much to see along the way. If you are given a choice, select Gregory as your guide and Jimmy as your driver. They are the best. Hellenic Private tours made us feel at home in Greece.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words. We are so glad that we managed to exceed your expectations. We hope we have the chance to offer you our services again in the future! Kind Regards, On behalf of H.P. Tours Frank Kotsiopoulos Manager Director

    Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.

    How much does Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $508 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 9.2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.

    Is Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9.2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 9.2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Marathon & Eastern Attica in a Day Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Athens?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Athens?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Athens?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
