Greek-language tour guide

I'm thinking about taking a trip to Greece in June and I'm wondering if I could hire a private tour guide who would speak to me in Greek. I did this in Italy once by hiring a regular guide and then speaking Italian, but my Italian is much stronger. My Greek is at about a B1 level. My fluency is pretty good, but my vocabulary is not that big. I can plod my way through a Wikipedia article about Greek history or geography, but I have to look up a lot of words. I'm wondering if anyone has thoughts about hiring someone for a few hours to do something interesting and touristy while speaking Greek. I feel like anyone who is patient with speaking with someone with modest Greek would be fine. I'm guessing that a tour guide would be OK and that he/she would probably be patient enough, but that a Greek teacher might be better. I wouldn't be looking for someone to correct my grammar, but just to keep the conversation going while we do something interesting (sightseeing, food tour, whatever). Has anyone done something like this?
