Testimonials

"Our group of 18 took a private tour of the Athens coastline, including to Sounio, where we saw the sunset over the Aegean Sea from Poseidon's temple, and Lake Vouliagmeni. Our fantastic tour guide was knowledgeable, informative and polite! He even let us linger for an extra hour or so to fully enjoy the sites. Highly recommend!"

"We went on the LGBT Nightlife Tour and it was incredible! It is always a struggle to find the real LGBT hot spots in a new place and this tour helped us do exactly that. Marlene was incredible."

"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."
