“Activity was great, but the pick up from the cruise terminal was stressfull. The taxi driver drove to our ship to collect us, but we had to go to via the cruise terminal. The two are miles apart. After much phoning and running around, our taxi driver found us. He was brilliant and thankfully we did not miss too much of the tour. Make sure you have a working phone, if you do this tour from a cruise ship. Would defo recommend.”

“We were a group of 7 and had a private air conditioned Mercedes van. Our driver Theodore picked us up right at the exit of the cruise port and communications with the tour operator was instantaneous! Theodore was Super friendly and accommodating to all our little special requests whenever possible. He took us to the best spots in Athens and did a great job considering our limited time at this port. I must say having done many tours on this trip, having a private tour was definitely the best way to go instead of being packed like sardines in a big bus! The price was totally worth it for a…”
Review of Athens shore excursion with Acropolis, changing of the guard, National Gardens, Temple of Zeus, museum, and port transfers.
“Amazing tour. Started off learning about Athens subway and how it is truly a museum. Watched the changing of the guards. Very cool. Then stroll through royal gardens. Quick snack break and on to the main attraction. Margaret was the best tour guide we have had this trip. She is well educated, so energetic about Greek history and an amazing communication style and voice. Learned so much. The tour of Acropolis was a bucket list we learned every step from the bottom to the top. Stunning place to visit. I am not a museum person the Acropolis museum has converted me. So well designed. Transport was easy. Be aware you…”

Review of the Athens City Tour from Piraeus, with Acropolis access, Plaka free time, port pickup, audio guide, price, and practical tips.
“Although we were aware that this was not a guided tour, the tour was not organized and we didn't get ear pieces and could not hear a lot of what the guide was telling us about where to go and where to meet when we were through. He gave us a QR code to listen about the history of the sights at the Acropolis, which was supposed to walk us through each section, but the audio kept going back to the beginning point. We, and others in our group got frustrated and turned it off. We also should have been told to bring our own headphones for our individual phones…”
