Great tour to see all the highlights in 1 day

What a great day! An amazing tour made even better by our professional and knowledgeable guide Dimi. The Acropolis was breathtaking and the other stops were just icing on the cake. We chose to visit the Acropolis museum and it was well worth the €20 admission. The lunch was delicious as well. Pro tip: Take a walk through the National Gardens after the Acropolis museum. It’s nearby and worth seeing. The walk to the top of Mt. Lycbetus is well worth the amazing view.

A short visit to Athens made better by Olive Sea Travels

The best parts of this tour were the small group size and the itinerary. Nothing was rushed and our driver Manolis was a wealth of knowledge. He had an infectious personality that heightened the experience for everyone in the group. Once we completed our scheduled timing at the Acropolis, the rest of the day was very flexible with the order of the rest of the activities. I would recommend Olive Sea Travel to anyone looking for a tour. I should also mention that the pre tour communications were timely and informative. Overall a 6 star experience.
