Greek TravelTellers consists of a team of Historians and Archaeologists who knows and values the role of mythology in the shaping of the Ancient Greek civilization. Many times being a tool of moral education, Ancient Greek Mythology was for our predecessors the corpus of their beliefs and thus, the foundation of their society. On this page, you will find tours that will offer you a unique way to descend into Greek history. Through the Greek mythology tours, our modern storytellers will take you on a journey in time, when myths and legends ruled on people’s lives.

We are all lovers of Greek mythology; stories of powerful Titans, envious Gods, eternal heroes and mythical adventures still inspire us today and are, in a way, part of our lives. With the mythology tours, it is our aim to guide you, the discerning guest of our country, through that epic world. Our mythology tours combine those famous tales with the actual places associated with them. What we today call mythology, ancient Greeks perceived as their religion and the true story of their origins. Each fascinating mythical story depicts their effort to explain and grasp incomprehensible to them natural forces. We will uncover these beautiful stories that became the heart of their beliefs and try to get closer to the people that created them.

Storytelling is the basis of our philosophy and both our Greek History tours and Greek Mythology tours offer you the opportunity to discover Greece through stories. The great tragedian Euripides was one of the greatest storytellers of his time, relying on suspense to excite his audience. Greek Mythology places come to life as you enter the Kingdom of Hades and the Underworld in the 'Life and Death walking tour in Athens', as you listen to the stories of godly love and abduction in the 'Love life of ancient Greeks walking tour', or as you unlock the secrets of the Eleusinian Mysteries, the most sacred religion of Ancient Greece. During our themed mythology tours, heroes will emerge from secret corners; gods will try to stop us or help us on our adventures; legends will come to life through role-play and games. Greek history was never so attainable!

What They Say About Us

"Our guided tour of the Acropolis with Poppy from Greek Travellers was exceptional. We did the tour with our teenage daughters and with their grandmother. Poppy could talk to young and old alike. She was extremely knowledgeable and delivered the information in a way that was informative but very entertaining. 100% recommendable and worth every cent."
― Elisenda, Aug 2022
"We booked a 6 hour private history and food tour and we had a wonderful experience! It was like being shown around Athens by a friend. We loved how our guide shared history, mythology, philosophy, and current cultural insight. The food was excellent. Highly recommend for a professional but fun tour."
― Samantha H, Jul 2022
"If you are looking for a unique and personalized experience/tour in Athens make sure you book with Greek TravelTellers! I went on 3 different tours with them and all were so different, informative and the tour guides were exceptional. They did an amazing job providing facts and information about Greece and Athens that only a local would know. I will be recommending them to everyone I know!"

"Very interesting and informative experience! Our tour guide, Gina, was wonderful and very knowledgeable about Greek history, culture, and architecture. We enjoyed the tour so much and would highly recommend this to anybody!"
― Cooper J, May 2022
"Everyone goes to see the Acropolis, and everyone should take advantage of this wonderful tour service. Our tour guide was Sotiris, an incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and engaging guide. Sotiris was so much fun to tour the acropolis with. His ability to weave hilarious personal anecdotes with the amazing history of the Acropolis was something to behold. It was a wonderful experience that we highly recommend."
― Valerie B, Nov 2021
"Me and my girlfriend did the Symposium and Food Tour in Athen with Costantina. What an amazing experience! These are the stuff that really add value to your time. Costantina is an incredibly joyful person, who is able to share her enthusiasm while telling interesting stories about Athen and the Greek world in general. Our trip wouldn't be the same if we didn't do these experiences! It is not recommended, it is a must!"
― Davide A, Sep 2021
"We did the Athens Food Tour Tastes and Stories of Greece tour with Constantina, it was wonderful! The area, the food (a lot of food!), our guide and the stories, were a perfect combination. This was our first outing into the city and we could not have asked for anything more, loved it! This is a must and if you do it first you will get acclimated to the area and enjoy the rest of your trip."
