Athens for first-timers

We booked the 08:00 tickets and managed to avoid the worst of the crowds and the worst of the heat. Athens is a great city and the Parthenon is a fascinating place to visit.

To be able to hear interesting stories and historical facts from a knowledgeable guide. Our guide was excellent, funny, considerate, knowledgeable!! Thanks a lot

Memorable visit to the Acropolis museum! I bought the tickets online with headout and it worked perfectly, glad I didn't need to wait in line for buying my tickets there!!

It was one of the best way to explore the city of Athens. The audio guide was good. But the buses end earlier than the provided time. I wish I could enjoy a bit more. Specially the beach line.

The guide gave details on the history of the area and interesting stories about the structure and habits of the people. She also gave us information on the area for our trip. The tour is absolutely worth it for getting to the acropolis before the crowds and getting a look around the old town including areas off the tourist track

The bus ride was really long. Approx 9hrs for round trip. Meteora guide - Clement was really awesome! There's quite a no. of stairs to climb to the monasteries. The view was spectacular.

Irene, la guía, fue encantadora. Hablaba inglés y francés. Llegamos con bastante antelación al punto de encuentro y ella ya estaba allí. En los sitios arqueológicos te dan el tiempo justo para verlos. Te dan una guia que es una aplicación para el móvil, en la legua que quieras. Funciona bien. Además, Irene da explicaciones cuando vas en el autocar. En cambio en Nauplia el tiempo que dan se queda muy corto, al menos deberían dejar una horita más. Nosotras nos llevamos un bocadillo pero el que comiese en restaurante dudo que pudiese ver nada. Y es un pueblo costero muy bonito. Yo me quedé con ganas de subir a la parte alta de pueblo y de dar un paseo junto al mar.
