Testimonials

"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."

"A fantastic Delphi tour that offers a unique experience. The tour guide was extremely knowledgable and added a lot more depth to Delphi than the written signs at the site would have. It was also nice that the group size was small because it made walking around the site a lot more pleasant. The visit to the bell maker and tannery was very interesting, and the food for lunch one of the most delicious homemade meals I had on the trip! Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting the area!"

"My friends and I booked this tour last minute and Alternative Athens was extremely accommodating to fit us in.We had a GREAT experience with Andreas, who walked us through the history of Greek wine and wine making. There was plenty of wine to enjoy and a lot of delicious small plates to snack on at the cozy cafe where this all took place. I never felt like we had a tour guide just spouting off a script about wine, food, and Greece. It was more like hanging out with an old friend who is well-traveled, cultured, and extremely knowledgable. Well worth the cost!"
