Steve_P, Jun 2023
The guy who gave us the tour made extra stops that were not in the itinerary. He explained the history of different things and had visuals, i.e a map, photos. He got us tickets for the Acropolis before the tour which really helped. Along with that, he gave us postcards and a book about the stops we were making.

Response from Host, Jun 2023
