Our guide, Kostas, made our entire experience memorable. He was articulate and informative. He told us great stories of Athens and Greece. We hope to see him again on our next visit to Athens.

Our guide George was so knowledgeable. I have problems walking and he was helped me whenever i felt like i couldn't keep up with the group. The tour was a fantastic way to skip the line and have a guided tour in the Parthenon.

Key to my Greece Tour

The guides on both my tours, Athens half day and All day Delphi Tour, were super guides. Well informed, polite, engaging and patient. The lady guide for the Delphi tour was very knowledgeable.

It was a great tour and would recommend to anyone visiting Athens. The tour guide was great and knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. The first half of the tour is around the city in a bus and get to see the lay of the land. Because of this, I would recommend this tour earlier on in your stay. The second half of the tour was the actual Acropolis which is amazing and until you go, the picture do no do it justice. After the tour most people would do the Acropolis museum but we opted to skip it because we wanted to explore some of the other ruins around the acropolis which is where our tour ended. I would recommend sitting in the front right side of the bus if possible.
