Learned so much! - Our Acropolis guide, Alexia, was fantastic. She was so passionate about the buildings and greek history. You could tell she loved what she does.

Must do to see Athens’ top sites! - A great tour!!! Our guides were so knowledgable and nice. We hit all of the big items in Athens. I kept telling my husband that I was so glad we booked a guided tour because we got so much history and mythology around each of the locations. It is definitely a must do if you’re in Athens. Iliana and George were great!

Great experience - It's a lot of walking/hiking with stairs and rocks... we essentially climbed a mountain, of course, but our guides were patient, caring, and super informative! They did a great job managing our large (14) group.

Acropolis - We absolutely loved our tour guide- she was a wealth of knowledge and made the experience very memorable! The views were of course breathtaking, and her account of the history was thoroughly enjoyed by both of us.

Great way to start in Athens - Theo/Teddy was great! He kept everyone engaged and had a wonderful sense of humor. When we were unable to watch the changing of the guards in front of the parliament due to an unknown delegate arrival, he quickly rerouted us through the national Park and to the back so we could see the guards change. Wonderful tour!

Great guides! - Great tour! Very organized and well timed even allowing for my husband walking with a cane. Going early & having tickets already was way to go!

We had George as our tour... - We had George as our tour guide, and he gave us a lot of history and answered our questions. There is a lot of fast walking, so be prepared. Had we been aware the tour was over after the Acropolis, we would have stayed there on our own, as we didn’t get a chance to look at the gift shop.
