"We had a great 2 hours with our tour guide, Tonia. She was very informative about the Olympic History in Greece and put us through our paces in the javelin throw, discus, long jump and shot put. We then made our way to the Olympic Stadium where we learned more about it's history and was able to run a lap. Highly recommend this tour for an out of the ordinary experience."

"The tour was cozy, comfortable and well organized. Before the tour, I expected a boring driving to the temple but the highlight stop-overs selected by our local guide made this driving enjoyable. At the temple, we had plenty time to explore and admire the view before the grandeur finale, the sunset at the temple, which has become the most dazzling experience of mine."

"Traveling to Delphi was wonderful. But what made the experience the best part of traveling to Athens were the guides and staff of Alternative Athens-Elisavet and Tania were so great!! . Yes, it's more expensive than maybe some other touring companies, but it's entirely worth it. I hope to travel back to Greece soon and I will certainly be reaching out to Alternative Athens for another tour."
