Great Tour of Athens

We had a great tour of all the historic sites along with more modern sites in Athens. Aris was an excellent guide who modified our tour to cover our specific interests. He has a great knowledge of how things were built. Highly recommend him and the tour. We were disappointed he could not join us for lunch.

We only had one afternoon...

We only had one afternoon and evening in Athens- so we decided to focus our on the Acropolis museum followed by the Acropolis. Our guide's, Natalia, knowledge of Greek history and artifacts were exceptional- all while delivering it to us with much enthusiasm. Natalia was able to navigate the crowds and entry points without any waiting.

Athens!

Highly recommend this tour as a good introduction to Athens. The tour started in the most perfect place at the Acropolis Museum & then up to the Parthenon after which we walked all over Athens. Our guide was so knowledgeable & interesting & spoke perfect English.
