“Wonderful Tour with Alex!!”
We booked a private 4 hour tour for our family with Alex and it was amazing. He is so easy going, happy and extremely knowledgeable!! He came prepared with so many pictures and really engaged with our kids. Beforehand he was so responsive to any messages I sent him with questions or concerns. I would 1000% recommend him if you are visiting and want to learn about all the lovely history and culture of Athens, he was wonderful :)

We arrived in Athens this morning and booked this tour to get us out and walking to help overcome the jet lag. We are really glad we did. Maria was very friendly and personable and made us feel welcomed. She has a great knowledge of Greek history and took us through all of the areas we are going to want to explore in more detail durning the rest of our stay. It was a marvelous way to get oriented to a new city. Plus we got lots of tips on getting around and on different restaurants. I’d like to thank Maria again for an informative tour.
