Wonderful Athens with Victoria !
Victoria was an amazing guide. From the get go she was enthusiastic, supportive and wonderful. She went through every location in detail and gave us time to explore each area. She is an amazing historian. I would pick her again anytime. Thanks Victoria!
Very nice tour and guide!
A very well spent day in Athens and Cape Sounion. Great tour with great guide Giorgio. The meal at the end was really good as well.
Great one day tour of Athens
We had a wonderful time with Vicky and Takis. Vicky was our tour guide and extremely knowledgeable in the culture and history of the ruins, city and surroundings. Takis was fabulous driving down these tight squeeze streets. He also was knowledgeable of the area. We had such a great time. This tour was an excellent way to see Athens and all it has to offer in a short time. Highly recommend Vicky, Takis and this tour. I would also add on the Cape Sounio tour. We upgraded to the Mercedes Minivan and it made the day very comfortable for our family of four!
