It was well planned and well executed by Petros. He is very knowledgeable, polite, patient and ready to explain what we wanted to know. Also it was very nice from him to preview what the group would need in terms of time for photos, walking, water and even bathroom time. He is a great asset to the company. Thanks Petros with o. ; )

This was a brilliant experience for me. Before going on the tour I explored the acropolis museum for a bit more context and was blown away by the detail and information the tour guide provided while walking around this ancient site. (I cant remember the guides name, but they had pink/red hair) Would definitely recommend!

We booked the 9 a.m. time slot on a Monday. It was already a bit crowded, but that didn’t spoil our visit. I recommend booking a time slot before 10 or 11 a.m., around lunchtime, or late in the day. We were lucky that the temperature wasn’t too high, which allowed us to enjoy the various monuments.

The buses were always on time, and we never had to wait more than a few minutes; the staff at the stops were super friendly; there were comfortable headphones to listen to some historical commentary on the various sites; the buses were clean; and the price for a day of exploring Athens was really affordable. It’s the perfect way to avoid getting overwhelmed by the different transportation options and get a great overview of the city without getting tired.
