I had a great time on this tour with Stavros! He was friendly, funny, and made the experience enjoyable. It is not easy to summarize the history of a city like Athens in just a couple of hours, but he does a good job of covering the essentials and ensuring he is answering any question you might have. He also went the extra mile and extended the route so we could make it all the way to the Panathenaic Stadium. Highly recommended!
