Testimonials

"We had an amazing tour through the sites with stories about the gods and goddesses with our kiddos, ages 5 and 9. I highly recommend Alternative Athens! Not only did we have a great guide, but we were also greeted and treated to excellent customer service. This tour was a highlight of our trip!"

Rosanna

"As a totally blind man the guide, Helen, was terrific and the tour exceeded my expectations. It is an experience I will always remember. The guide told us amazing stories of Ancient Greece. She also had tactile models and they were so helpful for me. Thanks for offering this kind of tour for the blind and visually impaired . The only part that was difficult was climb up to top. But excited and proud that I did it."

William P

"A great introduction to the myriad of Athenian fare. Our small group was treated to a special experience walking the backstreets into bakeries, markets olive oil, souvlaki outlets and hidden cafes. Great way to start your Athens experience."
