The tour was complete, dynamic and interactive. The guide is an archeologist from Athens, with so much to tell about the sites and links with mythology. Her talk was nevertheless adapted to our group. A 4-hour tour might seem long but it wasn't al all. It's just the perfect timing to visit the main sites and understand the history and mythology.

Danai was tour guide extraordinaire as she connected the history of Athens to the myths. We loved her storytelling and hung on to every word. She actively engaged our teens and broadened their global perspective on ancient civilization. the tour of Delphi was second to none. We continued to learn about the history of the centre of the world. Arachova was a quaint village. Danai introduced us to Greek coffee - now I'm hooked! I highly recommend Private Athens. We hope to be back soon!
