Nice round good for entering the city - Rena was very nice and is input to all questions. Great entry to make a transition over the city. German skills were very good from Rena. Much has been learned about the political and historical history of Athens and cultural development.

Great tour through main Athens points - Great activity to start with when you arrive in Athens. It gives you the opportunity to go through main parts of Athens with all main sights and you get the first orientation through Athens. Our guide Rena was very nice, very knowledgable, she told us interesting mythological stories, true ancient facts, then about the first kings of Greece and who created the Royal Gardens. And a lot of fun facts how about modern Greece. We liked the tour very much and recommend it!

Such a lovely walk through time in beautiful Athens - This was one of the best things we did in Athens. Rena showed and explained the history of many spots . We really loved the tour because the pace of the walk was nice and we did see so many important places. Rena kindly modified the walk because we wanted to visit a particular place. Will definitely recommend this tour.

Really perfect! - We had a great time with Beyla, the Athens circuit is well chosen, the rhythm allows you to admire the monuments and the explanations are clear. It is not only a historic visit but also full of anecdotes about the situation in the country. Thank you, Beyla!
