We had a tour of Athens, Greece with Petros Georgopalis, and I have to say he was one of the most knowledgeable tour guides we have ever experienced. He made every minute of the 3.5-hour tour absolutely wonderful with his passion, insight, and engaging personality. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens and would strongly suggest requesting Petros Georgopalis as your guide. He truly made the experience unforgettable.

The guide was really good. However many of the participants felt the time spent on each explanation was too long. Some left due to this. She should probably be advised to “read the audience”. Very knowledgeable but clients get antsy. Especially in the heat.

The guide was good, even though we were only 8 people the guide needed to use a talking device so that all could hear. Also two of people could not go all the way to the top because the lift was not working. And there was nothing said about walking 19,000 steps

This trip was a bucket list trip for my Dad. He has always wanted to see Athens (and Rome and Florence) and particularly the Acropolis in Athens. Our guide was fabulous and did a great job pacing the tour for my 78 year old Dad and his cane (very healthy, but had knee replacement surgery and still healing from that). She shared so much information as we walked through the Plaka and around the Acropolis and on the Acropolis. Well worth the price of a private tour for the 5 of us
