Born in the north of Greece, Athens has been my adoptive city since 15 years. After completing my degree in Archeology at the University of Thessaloniki in 1997, I found a way to combine both my passions for travel and Archeology thanks to the National Tourist Guide School that allowed me to work in excavations while guiding visitors in different parts of Greece. Meeting with new people and sharing with them my knowledge is a very fulfilling experience: every day is unique and filled with new discoveries. My favorite places in Greece include Athens, Delphi, Olympia, and Sounion, as well the Greek Islands. Beside archeological sites, I love guiding in Museums, especially the New Acropolis Museum in Athens. Today I can guide in greek, english, german and spanish. Follow me for a unforgettable guided tour in Athens and discover the secrets behind its historical sites. A personal detail: when I am not guiding, I love reading, another passion of mine.
