Just what we were looking for on our first trip to Athens. Small personal group with great guides. We got to see the main sites we all wanted to see. Included small van to comfortably move us from site to site. Great introduction to the city.

A great way to experience the Acropolis! Peggy, our Parthenon guide spoke perfect English, kept a comfortable pace and shared interesting information about the history and architecture of the site. Athena, our walking tour guide moved us seamlessly through the highlights of central Athens with great commentary.She recommended a great lunch spot at the end of our tour. This half day experience is a winner.

Our tour was only us and another couple. Our guide Peggy was excellent. She took her time explaining the different areas. Very knowledgeable. At a lot of the stops she took pictures of us with great backdrops. She added in some other stops of the area, Highly recommend this tour.

Athena and Peggy were our tour guides and were great company. Peggy was extremely knowledgeable on the history of the Acropolis and Athena was good company on the route throughout the city.

Our guide Peggy was excellent. Her background in archeology and knowledge of the Acropolis and Greece were helpful in answering our questions. Our very small group of 4 made it easy to transfer around the locations.

The most perfect addition to your visit to Athens, whilst the city is very easy to navigate this excursion added that extra layer of history and fun facts you just don’t get from a guide book. Friendly, informative and accommodating and something I’d highly recommend. We took the earliest slot available in the morning, something I’d advise as the acropolis hill was starting to get very busy as we were on our way back to the vehicle.
