Antigoni did a wonderful job taking us to Athens neighborhoods we would not have seen or known about and explaining them and their history. We highly recommend her and Alternative Athens to others

An engaging tour to participate in once in Athens.

Andreas Mogridge was an amazing tour guide who provided us with a wealth of information of all the most important neighborhoods, culture, foods and history of Athens. Highly energetic tour guide with an engaging personality and very interesting tidbits. This is not your typical visit. A must to do once in Athens.

Wonderful insight of Athens and more..,,.,
