Athens for history geeks

Tour guy was truly the Best, took his time and provided so much history. It was truly and enjoyable time, We took beautiful photos. We want to thank the check in lady for going above and beyond for us, we will forever be grateful to you and for your kindness.

A fantastic place—definitely worth a visit! It’s definitely hot and there’s not much shade, but luckily it was early in the morning, so there weren’t many people and there was no line at the entrance. The museum is also worth a visit.

Great guide in Clement. The trip was well organised with plenty of stop overs. The sights of Meteora were amazing. However, probably best to start tour at 7am to beat the summer heat. Bring a few bottles of water during summer. Bus driver John was great, got home safely.

We enjoyed our visit. Our host was Sofia and she explained to us everything to clear picture about that time and space .Thank you ,Sofie.

All of the tour was beautiful. The drive there was nice and when we got there the view was beautiful. The information from the guide was good and the trip was well organized. The only problem was the bad microphone quality of the guide, you had to focus so much on what she was saying that it was hard to enjoy the views fully.

I loved the guide's commentary all along our journey! They were well fitted to the trip and super insteresting. The places we visited were also super nice and made you feel close to the ancient times! I reccomend it for people trying new destinations!

I boarded the bus at the Acropolis, but at first I was given the wrong directions and ended up having to join the Athens tour. I wasted 1.5 hours on that tour. Later, the ladies at the Syntagma stop gave me the correct information, and I joined the Riviera tour. In my opinion, the Riviera Tour is the best option because it lets you see the locations of all the major beaches in Athens. However, this tour can sometimes take a long time due to traffic, so I’d still recommend it.

The option to skip the line and get admission very quickly (from one day to the next) is very useful. It wasn’t possible to purchase tickets online through the Archaeological Museum’s official website. I think the additional fee charged is reasonable.
