All went super. The ticket app worked perfectly. I was worried when a review said it was a scam. No idea what they did but all was absolutely fine

The iconic location itself , combined with the clear blue sky and Attica view made the day memorable. The museum was lovely. The crowds, heat and sometimes lacklustre commentary means I would not repeat the the experience.

The price is fine. The bad reviews, we had a stomach ache to book it online. but everything was totally uncomplicated and worked without any problems. Perhaps the departure times could be combined a little better with the other lines. Unfortunately the last trip wasn't clear for us and so we had a little problem at the end of the day. We would like to emphasize that the staff was super friendly and helpful. We would have liked a little more information about the headphones, they are a bit thin and could be expanded. You can approach everything with the normal metro, but it was much more relaxed.

Seeing the original statues from the Athena Nike Temple in the museum was a highlight. Also fantastic video that outlined the history of the site and the metropoles and architecture.

The whole experience was very well planned and executed, we got exactly what we wanted and even more! Maria was a great guide, very sweet, with great knowledge about the Meteoras and their history. The balance was great between the guided tour and when we were left alone to explore for ourselves. The lunch was great, with a few options to choose from. Everything was beautiful, will advice all my friends to join this tour if they are travelling to Athens. :)

Happy did a great job telling us all about the acropolis and the history there. Being able to ask questions and have her as our guide made the tour a much more enjoyable experience.
