Our guide Manos was amazing! Between teaching out about Greek history and showing us place that are mainly reserved for the locals, we had an incredible time. Thank you for sharing your city with us!
This was a great walking tour. Although it was very hot. We walked mostly in the shade. Saw some notable things I had never seen before in Athens. Our guide was knowledgeable of the areas and was fun and easy to work with.
When we selected this tour, we were excited to do something different but were also a bit nervous by what this tour might entail. All of those worries faded the moment we met our tour guide, John. He was an incredible guide through the city and we saw so much of Athens that we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. We loved this experience and would probably do it again whenever we come back!
Our tour guide was kind, friendly and very knowledgeable! It was the perfect start to our Athens exploration 🙂
Yorgos was exceptional! Spending 2.5 hours with him felt more like time with an old friend than a tour guide showing us Athens. He customized our stops based on interest, spontaneity, and jet lag energy levels. He was so knowledgeable and conversational and gracious. He had a great sense of humor and totally fluent English. What a wonderful ambassador for this tour company and for Athens!
Wonderful walking tour at our own pace, and our guide was interesting and upbeat. He gave use great information while keeping it fun.
the best walking tour i have been on and we do tours like this twice a year. funny. warm, knowledgeable and approachable.
Really fun introduction to a cool part of Athens we might not have seen otherwise. It really helped us get a sense of some of the neighborhoods.
Great experience. Guide grew up in Athens. Knows everything about Atens and Greek history. Still excited and enthused about his city and eager to share. Saw parts of the city we never would have seen and learned about. Would definitely recommend.
It was a great walk around and discovering new places. We enjoyed it very much, highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
