Good tour but be careful if you have trouble walking - Very enjoyable and it was awesome knowing you are looking at something from B.C. Time period. Pretty incredible. The tour guide was okay. You can tell she was on a time crunch and so she moved very quickly up the path toward the sites. Didn’t work well for those I was traveling with who were older and couldn’t walk fast. So we missed half of what she was saying since the communication system range is only but so far. It would have been nice to have been told there was an elevator. If you can’t walk that well, this may not be the tour for you. Otherwise, the guide was knowledgeable of the city and the sites.

Excited but disappointed - Was excited to take this excursion as never been to Athens before. Unfortunately we only got to see the Parthenon because the group was too large and the guide chose to wait for several people 15-20 minutes who were late or lost due to unclear meeting directions. I will choose a personal guide next time. We weren’t going to get back in time so we had to get off the bus and walk over a mile to get back to our hotel and flight while the tour went on.

Was never picked up - I booked this tour because I was supposed to be picked up from my hotel. No one showed up and I found out after the fact that the pickup location was changed. I do not believe I was adequately notified.

Terrible - They promised the tour on a bus and the bus never arrived. We had to walk all the way to the Acropolis and we didn’t have headphones like the other tours. It was not a good experience for me.
