First of all, the tour company sent us an email a Month in advance asking if we would be willing to meet earlier in the day due to long lines and the heat. So glad they asked us as it made a huge difference with the tour. Secondly, our guide (Ava or Eva) was very friendly and really engaged our teenage sons in the conversation. Asking questions or quizzing them with history. We loved it. So did the boys. She would ask if it was too much historical information and also if we had questions. Again, we loved it. She also made sure that we had pictures in the best spots all around the acropolis. We really appreciated all of our family photos. At the end of our tour, she gave us some options and considerations for next steps in Athens. This included the best times to go to whatever site of our interest based on crowds and heat. We really loved the tour.

Vicky was a wealth of information- offered in an informative and educational way. With pre- bought tickets, we saved hours waiting in line for the Acropolis. She was able to quickly Chan he itinerary for us as we responded to diverse needs of our group- some who had mobility challenges and an energetic 8 year old. Thanks for a great day Vicky!
