Don’t pass on this tour
I could not say enough great things about this tour and Angel as a guide. She was knowledgeable, engaging and always tried to find us shade on a day where it was close to 100 degrees. She found ways to wind us through crowds so nobody got left behind and we did not have to wait in the blazing sun. Kudos to Athens Walks and Angel for a great day/tour.
Ellie is the BEST!!!!
What a great experience with a wonderful guide!! Ellie is patient, kind profoundly knowledgeable and learned all 16 of the names of the people taking the tour!! What a great time!!
Great 1st experience in Athens
Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. She moved us through the crowds effectively and always found some shade to provide us with some information.
Amazing Walking Tour!
My husband and I booked Athens Walks for a walking tour of the Acropolis and Ancient Agora while visiting Athens on vacation. Booking the tour was very easy, and the price was very reasonable. From start to finish, the company really knows what they’re doing. Once we arrived at the meeting location, we received our listening devices and met our guide, Angel. From there, it was just a short walk to the Acropolis. Angel was truly amazing! She was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Greek history, and it was a pleasure listening to her. She had a wonderful way of bringing the history to life and making everything we were seeing so much more meaningful. It was extremely crowded and hot that day, but Angel did a great job making sure we stayed together and found shade whenever possible. She was attentive, organized, and genuinely caring throughout the entire tour. We were so glad we booked this tour because experiencing the Acropolis and Ancient Agora with a knowledgeable guide like Angel made all the difference. She truly brought the history to life for us, and we would highly recommend Athens Walks to anyone visiting Athens!
Highly recommend!
Excellent! The tour and experience was well planned. Jason was our guide - he was really great! So knowledgeable and stopped in the right places to avoid crowds, have shade, and catered his explanations to the group.
