“I liked that hotel pickup/drop off was offered. Our tour guide Anastasia was very knowledgeable and nice. She made sure that we were all in the group before she went any further. It wasn’t easy considering that Acropolis was very crowded. She gave clear instructions as to where to go for breaks and where to meet after our free time. It was a very pleasant experience to see the amazing Acropolis which housed the Parthenon, Temple of Athena, etc. We were a group of 8 and everyone agreed that it was well worth it. The city tour afterwards was a plus!”

He waited while we went up the Acropolis (using the lift which was great, otherwise we couldn't have done it). He showed us highlights of his home city and catered for our needs perfectly. He picked us up from our hotel and delivered us to our cruise ship in Piraeus. On time, reliable and caring - and a very good driver too!”
