Athens Tour Reviews
Guest reviews from travelers on tours in and around Athens
Deb L. | Traveled in December
Fast & informative! Erin was a wonderful tour director. She coordinated us perfectly. Places are fascinating, tour speakers were knowledgeable. I would recommend to everyone. Loved Greece & this tour!
Jeremy K. | Traveled in December
I wanted to see the the historical highlights of the Peloponnese and this was a perfect way to do it. Visits to the Acropolis, Olympia and Delphi were peak lifetime experiences and the other places visited were rich with interesting and informative sites and artifacts. The local guides were well informed and added to the experience. The accommodations were very comfortable, some in spectacular locations. The food was very good and in some cases excellent, especially the optional dining experiences. The bus was new and comfortable and the driver kept it pristine and was excellent at negotiating the tight streets in towns. There are some long rides on this tour. But the real gem was our tour director. Her knowledge of history, mythology and local culture was astonishing and she delivered it clearly with passion and a touch of humour .She also managed challenges with aplomb and looked after each member of our group with respect and attention to their individual needs
Lise K. | Traveled in December
Petros was wonderful and knowledgeable and fun. The Tour sites were exciting to visit The local food inclusions were also a great idea Nico was an excellent bus driver and friendly I thoroughly enjoyed this tour
Candee E. | Traveled in November
This was my first trip to Europe (Greece) and also first going with a tour company. Wasn’t sure if i would like the structure of being scheduled all the time. But I was pleasantly surprised at the seamless experience and our tour manager couldn’t have been better. Amanda was absolutely the best. She was knowledgeable, funny, compassionate and so kind. Had the best time. The experience was the perfect amount of all experiences. If there was anything that would make it better would maybe be a day of free time. I would recommend to anyone wanting to see Greece.

Karen S. | Traveled in November
This was a wonderful tour, and although the group was much larger than I had anticipated everyone got along very well. That made the whole atmosphere a wonderful experience in addition to the beautiful scenery and ancient ruins. Every location provided a terrific learning experience that enhanced the overall trip.
