Kataryna, our Guide, and Andy, our driver were the perfect way to end out trip! They picked us up from the port with all our luggage in a very comfy and spacious van and took us on a whirwind tour of Athen to fill our morning before heading back to NY. They were great communicators, friendly, and accommodating of our large, multi-generational group. They drove us to the airport and even helped us to navigate to our baggage check-in.

Wonderful Acropolis tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable especially the personal guide in the Acropolis. I never thought I would make it up to the top but our tour guide took it slow and warned us about the slippery areas. She made it a very pleasant experience. Book the tour in the morning if you can, the earlier the better.

We went in august and It was a hot day bt the shuttle had good air conditioning and they also provide water during the tour. The guide Antonia and Teddy/Theo were so nice , knowledgeable and patient with our group. The tour can probably be done on your own but what you pay for is the convenience and the information you get about the ancient buildings , the funny stories, overall was an awesome experience for us.
