  • Disappointing Tour--

    Water should have been handed out to all participants before the walk started. Head phones need to be improved. Bathroom available was disgusting. Guide was marginal at best. It was a very disappointing tour. It was a very hot day also. Perhaps a handout on key points ? Guide did not welcome questions. Not a good experience for the 4 in my party

    Extremely knowledgeable tourguide who gave valuable insight the entire tour, Dorina K. You could feel the passion of her experience and training through how she spoke about each subject.

  • Must see in Athens

    Must do in Athens. August is hot and crowded, so avoid if possible. If not, still worth it. Guide was great and provided just the right amount of time to explore.

  • Go on your own

    If you want to stop a lot this is the tour for you. If you are rushed for time and want to get to the top before it’s too crowded go on your own.

    Guide was knowledgeable and fun to talk with! It was crowded the day we went but our guide wove us around and was able to find shaded areas to sit/stand while he talked. Great experience! Would recommend!!
