Worth every penny and then some...
Published on Nov, 2023
Mr. Stelios shared his impressively deep knowledge of Greek history, archeology, art and politics in an engaging and fun manner. Facts and figures were always interwoven with an insightful narrative that brought the history of the sites we visited to life. We were promised a 4 hour tour of the Acropolis and its museum, but were treated to nearly five hours. Extremely pleased.
very good

Athens the right way
Published on Jun, 2023
Giota was very knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy. She showed us Athens in the most genuine way. I would recommend anyone seeking an amazing experience of Athens with this tour.
Fantastic guide, dinner not as expected
Published on Jun, 2023
Our guide Helena (sp) was great! You learn so much more with a guide. We really enjoyed the tour. The dinner was fine but was stated as a restaurant for dinner with view of Parthenon at end of tour. The roof patio of the restaurant we were brought do did not face the Acropolis. Unless there was a second roof patio and they sat us wrong, this tour description is inaccurate and we would not have bought with the dinner based on what we got. Grateful for a great tour with our guide
Tour fantastic as is the guide.
