How early do I need to arrive for a walk?

We like to begin our tours promptly at 09:30 and advise our guests to be at the meeting point by 09:20. In case of a delay then we kindly ask our guests to notify us by calling the 24 hour line that is listed on our website and on their voucher.

Is it child friendly?

Not only are our tours child friendly but we highly recommend it. All of our guides are specifically trained to provide our young clients with easy to understand information about the history of Athens.

How much am I going to walk and do I have to be moderately fit to participate?

Time and distance: our #1 tour " the Acropolis and city tour" lasts three hours. We do the walking, which is not more than one and a half mile, at a moderate pace and we stop very often at various spots so that explanations can be given about the interesting monuments, sites or spots.

What if my Hotel is away from the city center?

If your Hotel is away from the city center then the best way to come to our meeting point which is at Syntagma metro station is to take a taxi to the closest metro station and use the metro to come to Syntagma. This you will save time and money.
