The guide was informative for the cape sounion and mycenae tour however i did not enjoy the city tour. There were so many people in the group it was impossible to follow and hear what the guide was saying. They should have given us a earpiece so that when the guide spoke, you can hear no matter where you are. I think it is very disappointing for the city tour. Please, spend a little more to do a segway or do a private tour.

The tour needs to supply headphones for people to hear the tour guide more easily especially when at the top of the Acropolis and in the Acropolis Museum. Would be good to know before hand about having to place backpacks in coat check in the Acropolis Museum as well.

Martina is incredibly knowledgeable the entire trip for Cape Sounion not to mention she's easy on the eyes.
The tour guide for the Mycenae and Epidaurus portion was also incredibly knowledgeable.
Both tours were wonderful and I'm happy that it was so easy to book and find the hotel that I needed to meet at.
