This very expensive tour was basically a self guided tour with a taxi driver that consisted of 4 stops (one of them was an addon). Our driver Nick didn't really give us any Athens information and mainly asked about where we were from. He just dropped us off at the 4 locations and told us when to get back. I didnt learn anything (other than what I googled) would recommend doing any other tour.
