We had a tour group of 19 that was led by Demos! Chose the guided tour with tickets to the acropolis included, and visited the acropolis museum on our own. It was a July morning and reached highs of 95 Fahrenheit, so he did a great job of keeping the pace slow and finding shady areas for us to take frequent breaks. Throughout the tour he was very engaging and taught us so much about ancient Athens! Including Greek mythology, theater, politics, music, and medicine. After the tour, he even went so far as sharing recommendations on how to spend the rest of our trip in Athens and gave us food and activity recommendations.
