And to top it all off, George introduced us to an incredible local taverna in his neighborhood, off the beaten path and away from the tourists, for an unforgettable dinner with a panoramic view of pretty much all of Athens.

He is so professional in his driving proficiency but even more so in hie engaging personality and sharing such intuitive information about the city and culture along the way.

He is an instructor with many years of experience and is used to teacher classes of various sizes, ages, and skill levels. He spends just as much if not more of his time taking customers on…”
