About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- colinn9160 contributionsTransfers to Athens and NafplionWe arranged a minibus for a family group of seven over several weeks for transfers from Athens airport to downtown, then Athens to Nafplion and finally from Nafplion back to Athens airport. Their service and vehicles were top notch for all legs of the journey - they readily accommodated our needs for child and baby seats and were flexible in meeting our other requirements. Staff who met us at the airport and the drivers were friendly, professional and very knowledgeable of the local history, culture and attractions. We highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.Written 17 November 2024
- kristenkW8800TX0 contributionsPerfect City tour of AthensWe had a fabulous tour with Sophia and Fanis. We were only in Athens a few days after my daughter's wedding in Santorini. We really wanted to see the highlights of Athens before going home. This tour was just perfect, capturing just enough to give us a wonderful feel for this ancient city. As we drove from site to site learning about Greek history, Sophia was very personable and answered all of our questions we had about current Greek culture. The tour ended with an excellent meal at an adorable family restaurant with delicious homemade Greek cuisine. Our party of 5 highly recommends this tour if you are looking for a day tour of Athens!Written 1 November 2024
- 129vikkic0 contributionsAirport TransfersIt was such a relief and easy to have someone meeting us after a long trip from Australia as it didn't mean we had to try to find a taxi. Our drivers were all so friendly and told us about Athens and pointed out different sights to go back and see. We used Cattaxi 4 different trips and each time were as good as each other. They even operated when all the taxis were on strike but for us it didn't make a difference. Terry actually called the driver to speak with us to apologise for and inconvenience due to the strike which was nice. However, we werent really inconvenienced. Highly recommend using Cattaxi. Next time would use them for a day trip somewhere.Written 30 October 2024
- despinad7160 contributionsGreat serviceThe service was great., very professional. Travelling with my elderly mum, it was comforting and reassuring to know we were in good hands. I would highly recommend their service.Written 9 October 2024
- Pauline2980 contributionsGreat serviceThis company was very responsive to my communication. The driver was funny and engaging and arrived on time. Would recommend!Written 7 October 2024
- loves2travel710 contributionsBest guided tour we've ever been on!We had a fantastic tour with Cattaxi. Terry was very good with communication and helping me decide on our tour. We had also booked a transfer from Athens airport, and he called to check in with us once we were on our way with our driver. We enjoyed the itinerary for the 3 day Athens, Sounion, Delphi and Meteora tour. We chose the option to include tickets to the locations, so no waiting in the lineups when we arrived. We had professional guides meet us to tour Acropolis, Delphi and the monasteries in Meteora, and they were all so informative and personable. Most importantly, our fantastic driver/guide, Panos T., took such wonderful care of us. So full of information, a great driver and just a fabulous person. We consider him a highlight of our time in Athens. Thank you to Panos, Terry and Cattaxi for making our once in a lifetime trip even better than we imagined.Written 2 October 2024
- mumwithbub0 contributionsFantastic experience for the whole familyFantastic experience for the whole family. Our family of 5 travelled in a huge luxury minivan, which included free wifi and charging ports. Sophia and Fanis ensured we had a wonderful time. We enjoyed a guided tour of the Delphi museum and archaeological site on the first day, before driving to Meteora for the sunset. On the second day, we had guided tours of 2 monasteries before leaving Meteora. We had a number of stops along the way back to Athens. The days were long but Sophia chatted to us and they made recommendations for meals at the stops and ensured we safely arrived at our accommodation each night. Highly recommend this tour!Written 1 October 2024
- FellowTraveler4819260 contributionsExcellent tour if you have limited time, great for all ages where transport is preferred to walking.Excellent tour. Sophia our guide and Fanis our driver were brilliant. We had a very long stopover at airport for the day so decided to do this tour for the day. Pick up & drop off at airport was seamless. The van was clean, comfortable and air conditioned. Sophia was a great guide and my children (9,8 & 4) all enjoyed the sites. The changing of the guard was a highlight for us all. Would recommend to anybody who wants a tour via car and has limited time. Children have had a great day and so have the adults!Written 18 September 2024
- TobyK6430 contributionsHighly Recommend!Our experience was fantastic! We booked a transfer from Piraeus to ATH in Sep 2024, We were arriving with another couple who needed a transfer to Athens city center. Both were booked over whatsapp while in Mykonos. The communication was prompt and professional. The types of vehicles and rate were clearly communicated in advance, and confirmed at the time of booking. Details about the driver and where to meet were explained. The driver was at the appointed location, even though our ferry was 30-minutes late, He was professional and courteous. The car was clean and comfortable and relatively new. One of our travelers left a personal item in the car at the airport, and a simple phone call and 5 minutes of time confirmed that the driver had the personal item and arrangements were made to return it to our travelling party. Highly recommend!Written 3 September 2024
- T6459QAdant0 contributionsNot the best or the worst trip. Could have been more professional.The vehicle was great. Straight shot from the airport to the hotel. Less than an hour. The driver drove very fast as we learn many greeks do. He talked to his wife/ girlfriend during the ride. Fortunately, no accidents. Arrived safely after the driver initially had the wrong address in the GPS. Not sure how the fare we paid compared to what taking a taxi would have cost.Written 30 August 2024
- 465sharmeenc0 contributionsWonderful day spent in AthensWe booked CatTaxi for a transfer from Athens airport to the city and then back from the city to Athens airport as we only had one day in Athens and needed to be back to the airport. I messaged Terry to confirm my booking and I'm so glad he asked me what my plan for that day was. When I told him, he explained to me how my plan was flawed and I would be stuck in the heat with all my bags. Instead he hooked me up with a day tour. It wasn't much more than what I hoped to spend and our driver, Panos, was beyond amazing. He was so kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and professional. We throughly enjoyed our day and are so grateful we decided to book them :-)Written 22 August 2024
- gymtraveler0 contributionsAbsolutely recommend!CATTaxi delivers. All drivers showed up promptly and very easy to communicate a plane change with the service and they adjusted pick up time. We used them four times. All the cars were clean and appeared like regular taxis. I am so glad we used them and took stress out of the equation in Athens. The form to fill out request for service can be a little tricky. Reaching out to them on WhatsApp made it easy to confirm everything as needed. I highly recommend!Written 29 July 2024
- billkB6991QF0 contributionsAthens transfersThe company helped us with a range of transfers and were superb. They went above and beyond, were punctual and polite. Would highly recommend.Written 28 July 2024
- jasminepZ552MT0 contributionsAmazing and memorable experience I’ll never forget!!If you are questioning if you should trust Terry with any transfers..don’t!! Just do it.. you won’t regret it! We booked the 3 day island cruise using Cattaxi Terry was quick to respond and answer any questions which I had via email. A real genuine person. He was extremely accommodating to come and pick us up in Nea Makri so that we can get to see these 3 beautiful islands. The driver was punctual at the pickup time as we had discussed . Car was super clean , spacious and new. I had booked the vip option as I didn’t want to be around such a big crowd as my immune system was compromised. Terry called me personally two days before to go over all the details and to let me know that he would try to get us an executive cabin so that I may rest in between island stops..but no guarantees. To our delight we were escorted to said cabin and were treated like royalty with top notch service which included drinks and appetizers as well a beautifully prepared fruit platter. Terry went above and beyond to give myself a day that my family will cherish forever! Thank you Terry!!Written 22 July 2024

Great tour with Terry, the company is very flexible and customer service driven, they made sure every comfort was provided from drinks to an amazing vehicle to spend the day driving in. Terry was an outstanding partner to share his love and knowledge of the Athenian history and Greek culture. My wife and I had no real plans to utilize these services originally. However, having spent the day with Terry and this company we couldn’t imagine walking away from Athens feeling as satisfied as we do and knowing that we truly saw everything there is to see. Had we not joined Terry this day we would have left Athens feeling like maybe we could have had more, Terry and this company delivers this experience and sentiment with 5 star’s and more.

Holy cow this was by far our favorite day in Athens. Terry kept us busy but tailored the entire tour to our interests and needs. He not only made us laugh but was so super knowledgeable being that he is a local. He was such an angel, super polite and just lovely to be around. The car was extremely clean as well. He has amazing tips for local culture and great food recommendations. He was also a great resource and knowing we had a friend in town was a great feeling! We strongly suggest you and your family to book with CATTaxi and working with Terry and his team!!

We had an amazing experience visiting the highlights of Athens & Sounio with the private tour. Very personal service and they have a great knowledge of the historic sites. The driver was very friendly and they took care of all the COVID measures in these difficult times. There was a bit of a hot period in Athens and it was amazing having a new and comfortable car with great A/C. When we come back later this year we will be booking another tour with them for sure!

Terry our guide and driver was a wonderful historian and a very kind, easygoing man.
We started at the Acropolis. Terry made it extra special by starting our tour at a little-visited ruins, which turned out to be the first place where people voted, with black and white stones...we were literally at the birthplace of democracy, just a stone's throw from the Acropolis but not at all crowded. It felt sacred there.
Then the Acropolis, which was wonderful. Followed by the Temple of Zeus, the first Olympic stadium, the prime minister and president's homes where we saw the ceremonially dressed Presidential Guard.
Another interesting side trip followed, to see the ruins where Plato taught Aristotle. Another less celebrated interesting site thanks to Terry!
We stopped for lunch in a seaside town filled with locals, then off to Sounio, the Temple of Poseidon. After the Acropolis this may have been my favorite.
Terry had a great sense of history; it was also interesting to hear about local life and how the Greek economy is slowly reviving.
Highly recommend. Thanks again Terry!

What an amazing day we had with Terry! We did a private tour with just the 4 of us (2 couples from Canada). We did Sounio Cape in the morning and the drive down the coast was absolutely beautiful. The Temple of Poseidon is definitely a must! Terry suggested we do the Cape in the morning and the Acropolis in the afternoon to avoid the crowds - great suggestion! Terry provided some interesting history and information and kept us entertained during such a pleasant drive. We mentioned that we wanted to try homemade Greek "Bougatsa" - he took us to a small little town where we tried some and it was amazing! Thank you so much Terry for a fantastic day -- truly a memorable experience - Best Regards, from Canada
