Hattie_J, Sep 2024

Good for a solo traveler to join a group. The drive to Temple of Poseidon is a bit over an hour. If you have limited time, it may be best to stay in Athens.

Amazing experience of Parthenon

Rajesh_G, Jun 2024

Amazing mind blowing experience to climb up that hill and get up close and personal view of Parthenon. No words can describe that feeling. Had a very good certified guide from Keyy Tours who was extremely knowledgeable and shared every bit of info of the place.

Not worth the money

Nadine_T, May 2024

I arrived at the tour office 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled time and checked in. The lady said that they will call everyone in about 2 minutes. The office was very busy and extremely hot. No aircon was on. I said i would wait outside. A few minutes later a staff member called for the Athens city tour and I thought that could not be me as I am on the Athens full day tour of the Acropolis, museum, lunch and Cape Sounion. I waited for about 5 minutes and then went inside and asked when my tour was leaving. Turns out that everyone was waiting on the bus for me. Anyway the first half of the tour was good. The tour bus did not stop at the Olympic stadium as advertised. When i questioned this i was told that the tour busses are no longer allowed to stop there and they didn't have time to change the information. The guide was very knowledgeable and it was very interesting. Lunch was a disappointment. I ordered the chicken Gyros. It arrived with 2 tiny pieces of pita and the chicken was very dry. The afternoon trip to Cape Sounion was not good. The guide was not very knowledgeable and was simply reading from a script. Waste of time in my view. Overall not worth the money and time.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Dear Nadine, Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m sorry to hear about the issues you faced with the tour. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’ll address these concerns with our team to improve our services and communication.

Hotel pick up is a...

Shyu8688, Dec 2023

Hotel pick up is a standard practice. However the hotel drop off service was a super bonus which I haven’t encountered with other tour groups in other countries. It was a very pleasant tour, lovely tour guide and delicious lunches.

Don’t miss your pick up time or you won’t get to go

Becca_C, Oct 2023

We missed the pick up at 8am. We asked if we could just meet up with the group and we’re told no. $200 down the drain. Not happy. Customer service person was so rude.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We feel sorry to hear that your experience with us was not what we would like it to be. Kindly note that all guests are informed that they should be at the pick up location 5-10 minutes before their set pick up time. Our bus was there looking for you, but since the excursion has a set departure time could wait no longer as it is not fair the other travelers, who were on time, to delay them and loose time from their tour. Unfortunately, it is not possible to locate the bus and join the group in the middle of the tour. We remain at your disposal. Kind Regards, Margarita Karavasileiadi

Bs please organise my refund as soon as you my family so upset with tour shall trust Viator’s tour? Paulo Lay

Great visit of Acropolis

Naum_D, Sep 2023

The visits to Acropolis and Acropolis Museum were excellent. The tour guide Katarina provided a xcellent commentary. The trip to cape Sounion took more time than it was worth. The lunch was unremarkable and, again, took too long. It would have been better to combine museum and Acropolis into a single tour and end there.

Long day. Beautiful day!

Lois_L, Sep 2023

We had Anastasia as a guide and she was so knowledgeable and attentive! She was kind and courteous and considerate of the group. It was a very long day for sure, so keep that in mind when booking. We did get charged €45 a person for the Acropolis and I'm not sure why, as tickets are €20 there and we didn't get anything extra. We did feel like lunch should have been before the museum, as we were getting very tired and hungry by then and the day started to drag. The museum was guided, which I didn't think was necessary, as they made it so much longer. Overall it was a wonderful packed full day tour.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Dear Guest, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us your review. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your tour and that Anastasia, our guide, provided you a memorable experience. Regarding the entrance fees please note that the cost of 20€ is only for the Acropolis ticket. The price of 45€ included also the tickets for the Acropolis Museum (15€) and the Temple of Poseidon (10€). We hope to see you soon in one of our future activities! Kind Regards, Margarita Karavasileiadi

Athens full day tour!

Tenna_M, Sep 2023

Dimitrius was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and quick to evaluate the say to make the most of all the historical places we toured. We loved the Acropolis, the acropolis museum and the bus ride to Sounion for the Temple of Poseidon. The scenery was gorgeous! We highly recommend this tour as a good first day tour of Athens!
