Perfect End to our visit to the Mediterranean - Our tour guide, George Kappis, was terrific. He was extremely knowledgeable and his English was excellent. Communication before and during excursion was through WhatsApp. He was professional and personable. It was an exceptional tour!

Great guide, wonderful experience on a very hot day - Our guide Vicki was wonderful and informative. She was very attuned to our group's needs and allowed us time to sit in the shade periodically since it was so hot out. When we toured the Parthenon and Acropolis, it was over 100 degrees F out, and she was so great about making sure our group members were getting shade and rest. She provided lots of information and was responsive to our questions and inquiries for different things.

Above and Beyond Helpfulness in obtaining emergency passport after original stolen. - Our tour guide, Ioanna, and driver, Alex went above and beyond what was expected. First the tour itself was wonderful with great information. At the Acropolis, my wife was unable to climb up and Ioanna and she sat and waited for the rest to return. Unfortunately, someone stole my wife's backpack from behind her - contained her shipboard card and her passport, among other items. Ioanna and Alex were great in getting us to police station and to U S. Embassy to obtain an emergency passport - at least 2 additional hours for each of them. Such kindness and helpfulness.

A must do! - Having a personal guide to show us the city was the best thing we could've done! Our guide, George, had a modern Mercedes all electric car. It was great to be able to keep our bags with him as we just finished a cruise. Can't rate this trip high enough.

A wonderful experience - This was an outstanding tour. Our driver Costas was very accommodating and knowledgeable. His communication with us during the tour stops was on target and his photography skills made our photo “ops” memorable!

Great service and knowledgeable guide - The amazing history we heard about and viewed. Although Viator, not the tour operator, sent us to the wrong pick up location. Stressful start but the guide and driver made up for it by being so helpful and determined to find us.

Still Long Lines - A very good and information driver who made sure we saw all the sites. However Skip-the-Lines, only means you skip the lines to purchase the tickets not enter the sites, we experienced very long lines.

Not satisfied for the high cost - Our tour guide, George, was terrific! My disappointment results from the fact that the tickets provided by the tour operator did not work to get us in to the Acropolis. We stood in line for over half an hour to get in... it turns out the "skip the line" access is only to skip the line to buy tickets, not to skip the actual line to get in, which was not worth the extra cost because we could have "skipped the line" ourselves by buying tickets online... which is what we ended up doing since the tickets they gave us did not work. It took about 40 frustrating minutes trying to figure out all out though, standing in the hot sun, which was that much less time we had to see the actual place, so we hurried through it. Loved George... but not the tour operator experience.
