What To Expect
Athens

Welcome to the birthplace of democracy, arts, science, and philosophy of western civilization. Home of Plato, Socrates, Pericles, Euripides, Sophocles, Aeschylus. Athens is one of the world’s oldest cities. It’s recorded history spanning around 3.400 years and it is being inhabited since the 11th millennium B.C. E. Today, under the shadow of the Parthenon, the contemporary urban scenery of the sprawling city reflects its exciting history, its multi-cultural modern personality as well as the infrastructure and facilities. The perfect Mediterranean climate with the legendary greek sunlight, the unique combination of glorious history with modern, urban innovation, the coexistence of great culture with astonishing natural beauty, the high standard hotel accommodation ...
Acropolis
The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a rocky outcrop above the city of Athens, and its monuments are universal symbols of the classical spirit and civilization and form the greatest architectural and artistic complex bequeathed by Greek Antiquity to the world. In the second half of the 5th-century bc, Athens, following the victory against the Persians and the establishment of democracy, took a leading position amongst the other city-states of the ancient world. In the age that followed, as thought and art flourished, an exceptional group of artists put into effect the ambitious plans of Athenian statesman Pericles and, under the inspired guidance of the sculptor Pheidias, transformed the rocky hill into a unique monument of thought and the arts. The most important monuments were built during that time: the Parthenon, built by Ictinus, the Erechtheon, the Propylaea, the monumental entrance to the Acropolis, designed by Mnesicles, and the small temple Athena Nike.

5.00We very much enjoyed our private tour of the “Footsteps of Paul” yesterday. The licensed guide Marco was very good - we appreciated all the information he gave us, both from the tour but also from his own life. He also listened and was interactive and thoughtful about spiritual topics, which was a great blessing to us. This will live in our memories forever. 😊
Very educational, great service!

5.00Nicolas was excellent. His knowledge about the history of Athens across the centuries was brilliant. It was easy to access the sites we went to and was great not to have to stand in any queues. Would highly recommend this if you have a short stay in Athens and want to see the main tourist attractions.
Poor communication, enjoyable tour

4.00We were given a place to meet, but the tour guide had changed the meeting spot and it was never communicated to us. The tour was delayed by almost an hour, as we tried to get in touch with the tour company and guide; very frustrating! Once underway, the tour and guide were very good and informnative. It definitely involves a lot of walking, so wear suitable footwear.
A great look at important sites of biblical history.

4.00Our problem with this tour was ourselves. We spent too much time at the Acropolis. We hired another tour guide on the hill which was very good but took too much time to stop at the other places mentioned so we just drove by them. Basically Christos took us to a special place across the street to take a photo as well as walking the up the Acropolis. We then drove by the other sites because we took 3 hours there instead of an hour--our fault. He did tell us about the places and we visited them later as we took this on the first of a 5 day visit to Athens. He gave us a good overall tour of the city and was knowledgeable and prompt.
