Worth Every Penny! - I LOVED this tour! Demetrio was amazing - was prompt and had us at the monument sites well before the tour groups started to arrive. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, showed us all the sites of ancient and modern Greece that were listed, and brought us to a great restaurant for lunch. The Parthenon was amazing and visiting the Temple of Poseidon is something I don't think I will ever forget. It was breathtaking and again, we made it there before the four tour buses, making it as if we were the only people there. We were brought back to port in plenty of time. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is even remotely thinking about it - it was a tour we will not forget! It was worth every penny.
