Visit to the heart of Greek mythology - Extraordinary experience with our guide Antonia who captivated us from start to finish.
We can’t hold everything back, but we’re happy with all the information we’ve shared.

Ancient Athens brought to life in vivid detail - Our tour guide, Costas, was amazing. He was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable that he was able to bring the history of the area to life. You need to be aware that it is a very physically demanding walk. I’m an out of shape 50 year old that could do it. But I certainly slept well afterwards. Overall an awesome tour.

Exceeded expectations! - We had a wonderful time with Alex who gave us a well planned tour of some of the most important sights in Athens. He was full of interesting stories about the ancient city as well as the modern and answered all of our questions and more! His knowledge of Greek mythology was unending and really brought all of the sites to life. Would highly recommend!!

Exceptional private tour - The guide was utterly exceptional. It was like doing a tour with the smartest friend you have. Was able to be flexible and make tactical decisions depending on the crowds and chose the best food for lunch. Highly recommended.
