I loved our guide Hélène’s passion and her deep appreciation for the historic sites. Her archaeological knowledge was interwoven with legends and the mystery of our ancient ancestors. It was truly an enriching tour. Thank you so much, and I highly recommend it!

The fast-track ticket is easy to use. We decided to hire a private guide for the two of us. It’s pricey, but the service is excellent.

It all started with a great pick-up right at the landing stage of our ship. When we got off the boat, we saw the bus just leaving. A quick call from the driver of the next bus and the first bus drove back a few meters and we were allowed to ride along. All the transfers to the next buses also went very smoothly. Thank you very much!
