Great walk through the monuments and city
Eleni did a great job of taking us near many of the monument sites while giving us a ton of background info of the history and current status's of what we were seeing. She gave us a view of the area that you couldn't get without a local's help. We also got to experience a Sunday Market area and Flea Market area that the locals spend their Sunday day off enjoying. A perfect way to get to know the area, with a great local expert.

Great tour to Marathon
If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of Athens and want to escape to places where there are few tourists, this tour is definitely recommended. Archaeological sites, a museum and the Greek countryside are on the agenda, topped with a sauce of historical and cultural facts. A tasty stop in a bakery and a relaxing lunch on the beach complete the picture.
In short, a very successful excursion!
