Penelope was our knowledgeable and experienced guide. She made ancient Greek mythological history come alive. She welcomed questions and gave thoughtful answers. When she found out my profession, she related some ancient Greek mythological figures to my profession which I thought was awesome. Not that this is a thing one should expect, but she made sure that we were out of the direct sun and we were not too hot. I really appreciated that because we had two gingers and a Blondie in our group. :) Highly recommend.
Very informative guide....
