Traveler reviews
Perfect excursion
Michael was a very gracious host and provided a professional and in-depth tour. We enjoyed the day immensely and the restaurant he suggested was excellent with a beautiful view. He was very solicitous of our comfort and picked us up immediately when we texted from our meeting points. It was a great day.
The sites were very...
The sites were very interesting and both guides were knowledgeable. A couple of items… guides especially at the Acropolis should have a flag of some kind to keep from losing him. Second less information is better than more. He went on and on about the wars and ancient locations we knew nothing about. Maybe some cards with subtitles to help us understand his Greek-English. Maybe short talk/more photo opportunities.
All of Athens in a few hours
Was a great experience. Dionysius and Nick were great! Very informative and on time. Highly recommend this tour
Great Tour for Limited Time in Athens
Our guide Danae (?) for the Acropolis and Parthenon was FANTASTIC! She was super informative and prepared to keep our group of teens to seniors engaged and moving thru the crowds. She provided ample time to take photos, answer questions and provide additional info as needed. She is amazing. Our city tour guide was just ok - not super enthusiastic and not super eager to engage with the group. She did not allow for much time to explore the stops on the tour and we ended an hour earlier than was stated. The ease of seeing all the must-see sights and beating the crowd at the Acropolis makes this tour worthwhile.
See all of Athens in a Few Hours
Peggy and Julia were amazing! So friendly and informative. We were able to see everything in Athens in a few hours. The tour would have been rated a 5 if the museum of the acropolis was added. I would have paid extra for that.
