Traveller reviews
Entertaining and instructive… mythology is complicated but this tour makes it fun!!! Give it a try!!!
Katerina K. was our guide for the mythological tour of Athens. Katerina is a wonderful teacher, her explanations were always to the point, she is very knowledgable of Greek mythology and of the city of Athens, she has a great sense of humour, and a very positive attitude. The tour was both interesting and fun. Definitely worth the money! It is ideal for tourists who have already seen the Acropolis and are curious to know more about the city.
Penelope was our guide and she was absolutely fantastic. We had our children with us and she tailored her style and stories to keep their interest. We learned so much & enjoyed the lessons and the walk. We highly recommend Penelope and this tour for anyone interested in learning about the mythology & even some of the much lesser known stories.
Penelope was our knowledgeable and experienced guide. She made ancient Greek mythological history come alive. She welcomed questions and gave thoughtful answers. When she found out my profession, she related some ancient Greek mythological figures to my profession which I thought was awesome. Not that this is a thing one should expect, but she made sure that we were out of the direct sun and we were not too hot. I really appreciated that because we had two gingers and a Blondie in our group. :) Highly recommend.
Very informative guide. If you are interested in Greek mythology, it’s a must. If you have no idea regarding this subject matter, strongly suggest to read up on it before the tour - otherwise, you will have a hard time following it. Very well done . Tour guide was great
Very knowledable guide. Enjoyed her talk very much. Make the twisted history of the gods easy to follow.
Penelope is a great storyteller! This tour is a unique and fun way to see some of Athens and learn a lot about mythology. We enjoyed it very much!
Penelope was a great guide - fun, engaging, patient and informative! Thanks for the good overview of Athenian myths.
