    Our trip to Athens was absolutely wonderful. The only reason I have not given it top marks was because of the disjointed organisation for the disabled. The distance between the taxi ranks and the buggies to the lift was to far for anyone with problems walking to achieve and even if one had access to a wheel chair it is up a steep incline on beautiful slippery marble. Disabled access to the wonderful National Archaeological Museum was again difficult between taxi and door. I have to, msay that everybody with whom we came in contact was kind and helpful.

    We arrived for the early opening for 9am and was able to enter from 8:45 so glad we did this as by the time we were ready to make our way down they were loads of people on the way up. So pleased we made the trip to walk around and see what went before us.

    Booked an early slot at 9am and it was nice to get there before the crowds, no queuing. Was cool enough to enjoy the sites even though it was a sunny day. It was getting busy as we left as coaches were arriving. Much easier underfoot than when I last visited over 40 years ago.

    We used the bus, the 1st day, for a general tour and the 2nd day we went to the acropolis, and went back to visit the most attractive places. Very good option
