It was a 10❤️
John showed us an Athens. He never would have seen walking about on our own. He loves his city and his country and it showed with every comment he made. He was so friendly and outgoing. Our experience with Chan could not have been better!

Good tour woth John
John did a great job for us. He helped find a place for our luggage since we met him right after getting out of the airport. He was understanding and worked with us since we were late meeting him from the airport.
The tour was great and the kids enjoyed it too (which is the hardest part). He was funny and interactive with the kids and the adults. He took us to some good places and was very knowledgeable.

Amazing experience!
With only one day in Athens, my family knew we wanted to make the most of it. Markella was a phenomenal guide. Extremely knowledgeable, personable, and able to tailor the tour to exactly what my family wanted to see. Would recommend to anyone looking to see Athens!
