We had the most incredible experience touring Athens with Alexandros! Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the rich history of the city, but his kindness and compassion truly set him apart. Partway through our tour, I started feeling lightheaded, and Alexandros immediately noticed. Without hesitation, he bought me a cold bottle of water and found a shaded spot where we could sit and rest. He even joined my husband and me for lunch to make sure I had a proper meal and felt better before continuing. His patience, care, and genuine concern meant the world to us and turned what could have been a stressful moment into a memorable one filled with warmth and support. Beyond that, his storytelling brought ancient ruins and historical sites to life. Alexandros didn’t just guide us—he connected us to the spirit of Athens in a way that was personal, immersive, and unforgettable. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Alexandros, for your heart, your knowledge, and your incredible hospitality!

Smaro was terrific! We had an absolutely fabulous day that exceeded out expectations. She was well prepared, her English was excellent and she was quite accommodating for us seniors!

The tour started at the Monastiraki metro station. This allowed our guide,Sophia, to give us an overview of how Athens had grown over the centuries. As we walked, she pointed out many interesting locations and points of history, before we entered the Agora. It was a great introductory overview of Athens and the Agora. But before you take this tour I recommend that you download and listen to Context's introductory lecture. Then you could take advantage of Sophia's extensive knowledge as an archeologist.
