Athens Diversity of Culture

Denise_M, Jun 2024

The diversity...ancient to modern...just outstanding. Hara, our guide, was so warm and informative. We fell in love with the city, the people, the culture. Our guide provided a window into the ancient history right up through the modern day Athens. Very amenable to making sure you see what you want to see. Totally worth it.

Thank you very much!!!

Best Personal Tour.

Rosanne_M, Sept 2022

Chara & Peter were exceptional tour guides and host. They picked us up on time and at our front door, even though we were a difficult pick up area. They were very professional and knowledgeable and we learned so much about Greece and Athens. We finished the tour by going for coffee at the most picturesque cafe over looking the Parthenon. We went on a tour and ended up with two friends. The price was very reasonable compared to other options and we highly recommended this to other visitors.
