Amazing day, lots of walking

Be prepared to walk and climb alot of steps. I had to stop a few times to catch my breath. But the view is amazing.

Don’t book with Key Tours through Viator

We booked a tour with a live guide and audio and received notice to meetup at 9:00 with no further information. We got there and could not find any guides from Key Tours. I called them and they sent our tickets by WhatsApp and told me the guide came in the other entrance ( we were at main entrance). They described the guide and basically said good luck. We never found her. Worst Viator experience I’ve ever had. I asked for a partial refund- no response. Will follow up with them again when I return from Greece.

Panos was the greatest,...

Panos was the greatest, he gave us an in depth history of the gods of Athens and the Pantheon before we visited the ruins. Then he guided us through the city of Athens, with detailed information about each historic site. He was cordial and patient.

Na

It is hot in July at noon!!! But so worth every step and drip of sweat! Took the 6 year old all the way and she was a champ!

Terrible customer service!

Book with caution. Flights and customs are often delayed into Greece. This company is not flexible with uncontrollable flight delays, and when calling their representatives, they do not assist. Our reservation could’ve absolutely been adjusted with their guidance and help. Instead they left us unassisted the day of our arrival and we lost hundreds of dollars.
