A poor experience

A very disappointing experience. Little customer service provided, tour guides were rude and arrogant. Overall a poor experience and I would not recommend using them if you are travelling from the U.K.

Dream come true!

This tour was a dream come true! Athens has been at the top of my travel wishlist since I was a little girl and we found ourselves with one day to spend there. The evening walking tour was well organized and our guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Doing this tour in the evening also meant lighter crowds and cooler temperatures and the entire experience was amazing. I probably muttered, “I can’t believe we’re here” 20 times throughout the tour. Highly recommend!
