Maria provided great communication prior to our tour and met us at the appointed time/place. She was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed her descriptions. She was also very understanding of the situation with the extreme heat and often found shady places for my children to sit while she explained things. She answered all my questions (even the ones I was almost embarrassed to ask) and never made me feel like I shouldn’t be asking. Overall we enjoyed the tour.
Sofia was a walking encyclopedia of Greek knowledge. She guided us through the Parthenon and Acropolis museum with dexterity and insider experience. She knew where to walk, stand, talk and direct us on a very hot and busy tourist excursion. She seemed to know every Greek tour guide, and had eyes in the back of her head - spotting and thwarting a would be thief (a young girl stealing a rock). She was the Greek mom that we didn’t know we had!
Absolutely perfect - kids and adults learned a lot. Very accommodating, friendly. Couldn’t be happier!
