Testimonials

"Our guide was excellent, very kind, informative and tailored our tour to the ages and experience of our group. It was a long tour, with a break for lunch, which was at the right time in the tour. He also made the museum tour interactive with truth and dare, which was fun for the teens. I highly recommend Alternative Athens. If we had more time, we would have booked additional tours with this company."

"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."

"LOVED the comic book workshop! Our hosts were so incredibly engaging and we had so much fun. The cellar we did the workshop in was the coziest and most enchanting little library. Brick and stone walls with black bookshelves filled with comics set the scene for a truly pleasant two-hour adventure into Grecian mythology."
