Good 2hr tour post cruise - We had limited time and since it was a weekend the Acropolis was extremely busy, so our tour guide did an alternative tour for th limited time we had. It was still good tour, saw other places and got to the airport as planned,

Be sure your flight isn’t delayed if you are using this day adventure as a layover - Flight delayed . Did not feel comfortable still committing to the trip because of time constraints. They could not offer us even a partial refund. The driver, however, was still ok taking us.
