“My favourite tour in Athens, and one of my favourite tours anywhere in the world. Elissavet was an exceptional guide, very knowledgeable and friendly, and happily spent longer with us than she needed to. She made us feel that she was enjoying the tour as much as we were! Athens has an incredibly diverse collection of street art around most corners. But this isn’t just about the art, it’s about the history and geography and community of the different areas of the city. I could not recommend this tour more highly, it was fantastic!”
