    Different type of tour taking in off the beaten paths. Eleni guide was very interesting. Happy to see parts of Athens not so touristy

    Visite au coeur d'Athènes sous le signe de la mythologie avec un guide grec expert dans ce domaine. J'ai eu le privilège d'etre seule avec mon guide, Arthur

    Out guide Helena was very friendly and knowledgeable. The tour is off the beaten path and showed Athens from a less tourist side. The hills are beautiful and the views are breathtaking! We will do it again for sure! I highly recommend it.

    Great tour! We took a baby along, and he was a handful a few times. She was very patient with us and our slow moving group, as well as exceptionally knowledgeable.

    Our tour got off to a bit of a rough start, as our guide arrived a few minutes late and admitted hed been out partying the night before later he mentioned he also does a nightlife tour, so maybe these were related??. But as in the movie My Life in Ruins, there is always time for a coffee he had a to-go coffee even though he was late. My husband and I exchanged glances and perhaps a smirk, and set off on our tour we were the only ones on this day. We soon warmed up to our guide he was very knowledgeable and could answer anything we asked. Even though we have been to Athens numerous times, we still saw and learned many new things. It was such a lovely walk in the spring with the wildflowers, but a warning: it would be brutally hot in summer!!

    Wonderful walking tour of Athens. We visited major sites as well as beautiful hidden neighborhoods that we would not have otherwise seen.
