We had arranged touring with George many months prior to our Athens visit. George, however, was unavailable during our visit to Athens. He arranged for his son, Dennis, to oversee our touring. Our touring with Dennis was pretty dismal and we ran into numerous problems with Dennis' attitude. I brought the matters to George's attention, after we returned home and George rebated some of our money.

Because we had such an unfortunate experience with Dennis, in George's absence, you may want to consider Spiros. I don't think you need a licensed guide. Just one who is warm, inviting, cooperative, informative and genuinely attempts to make your stay in Athens all it should be and what you expect out of your touring experience.
