Perfect Athens - We had a wonderful time on this tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and took us around to the sites where we took great pictures. He suggested seeing the Acropolis at the latest time available which was perfect timing for pictures. It was dry and cool and awesome. He timed it perfectly, also we saw changing of the Guard and had requested a stop for local dinner. Also fabulous. I highly recommend this tour. Our only issue was that the mini bus had no electronic step or at least he needed to have a stool in order to get in and out of the mini bus. It was a major big step and challenging for seniors.. Leonidas was a great driver

Acropolis Tour - George was our guide. He was interesting and very personable. In addition to the sights he took us to a wonderful family owned restaurant for lunch. We enjoyed our day with him and highly recommend.
