Our driver Chris and tour guide Peggy picked us up at our hotel promptly for our tour of Athens. My husband I I were travelling with our two granddaughters, 14 and 16. Our first stop was the Acropolis and Peggy was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. She and Chris made us feel very relaxed and comfortable. We were able to structure our tour to our liking so part of our time we spent at a lovely restaurant by the sea. All in all we felt like we experienced a lot of Athens in the time we had. I highly recommend this tour.

Would recommend this tour. Our Guide and driver were very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Transport was of excellent quality clean spacious and air conditioned. We had three teenagers and my only suggestion is that the guide try to engage a little more with children and try to spark interest ( not easy I know especially with teenagers,)

1/2 Day Skip The Line Acropolis and Athens tour
Pam_H
, Jul 2021
Not sure I’d call this a tailor made tour as I noticed on their sample itinerary that we would not be entering the 1st Olympic stadium so had emailed tour to see if we paid our own admission if we could go in. Tour briefly stopped, but did not have time for entrance as tour guide had spent too much time at Acropolis/Parthenon and we needed to rush from Olympic stadium to see Changing of Guards. Good, but not great tour. Bought it for the skip-the-line at Acropolis, but on date/time we visited really not necessary as crowds were nonexistent.
