Passeios por Benaki Museum

ótimo do início ao fim, saída às 9h pontualmente e chegada à estação de Atenas por volta das 23h. Um salve para o Yanis, nosso motorista, que dirige com segurança, e para a Vassou, nossa guia turística, que foi simpática e muito conhecedora do assunto!! Vimos 3 monastérios por dentro e eles ainda nos levaram para ver o 4º, embora por fora, pois este fecha mais cedo, mas tudo bem... é o primeiro monastério construído e o mais lindo! Vale a pena subir os degraus para visitar todos os 3 monastérios. O almoço também foi ótimo. O único ponto negativo foi o jantar, que estava muito caro, imagino que seja a típica pegadinha para turistas: 20 euros por 2 espetinhos de souvlaki com fritas, salada e uma garrafa de água. Há outras opções de comida, e ouvi outros passageiros reclamando dos preços que tiveram que pagar também. Mas, tirando isso, foi uma viagem linda! Houve paradas suficientes para ir ao banheiro, com banheiros nos monastérios que visitamos.

The pick-up location was very easy to find. We saw many monasteries along the way. I didn't bring cash, but I was able to get in using a card. The tour guide was very humorous and kept saying he was his parents' favorite child. The driver drove very smoothly, and I slept soundly along the way. As for the food being expensive, I didn't think so—it seemed like the normal price around here.

Este passeio ao Cabo Sounion é imperdível ao visitar Atenas! O trajeto pela costa é deslumbrante (graças ao motorista Panos), e o Templo de Poseidon ao pôr do sol é pura magia. Nossa guia, Maria, foi fenomenal. Ela foi amigável, entusiasta, extremamente organizada e uma contadora de histórias incrível que deu vida aos mitos e à história. Ela garantiu que tivéssemos bastante tempo para aproveitar a praia e as vistas sem nos sentirmos apressados. Foi um passeio impecável e eu o recomendo fortemente a todos!

Fazer o city tour de ônibus por Atenas e a caminhada pela Acrópole foi a melhor decisão que tomei. Haha~ Nosso guia Dimitris compartilhou muitos fatos históricos e foi muito divertido. O motorista Yanis navegou suavemente pelo centro da cidade e nos deixou na Acrópole. A atração pode ser muito movimentada e um pouco íngreme, mas o guia nos conduziu muito bem, garantindo que ninguém ficasse para trás. Recomendo muito reservar este passeio — ele faz as ruínas antigas ganharem vida de uma forma que nenhum texto consegue replicar!

Our tour guide Angela was great, she explain everything in great detail and was very fun!

Irene K and our driver George were an absolute pleasure! George is an excellent photographer with a wonderful sense of humour and Irene K was truly fantastic. she is extremely knowledgeable, flexible and adaptable to peoples interests and shared so much history and context that was truly valuable. Having such a qualified and experienced archaeologist as a guide to such ancient and important spaces was a real blessing! as for the trip itself, it was perfectly paced really such a special experience! I am so glad that I joined this tour and highly recommend it. The only negative thing I can think of was that the food at the restaurant for lunch on the first day was just okay and a little overpriced. Perhaps to tour company might consider some other locations to stop for lunch. Even just a smaller local spot considering the group itself was only small.

I participated in a 2-day, 1-night tour. For the hotel in Kalambaka, I chose the 4-star option, but I ended up being the only person placed in a large hotel on the outskirts of town. It took about a 20-minute walk to get to the town center. Given this, I would have rather stayed at a 3-star hotel in the center of town. I was satisfied with the tour content, though. The tour to see the sunset in Meteora was amazing. The next day, due to a misunderstanding on my part, I ended up booking a hiking tour. While this turned out to be nice in its own way, I wish I had chosen the option to visit more monasteries instead. Since it is far from Athens, I am glad I didn't do a day trip. If I am being picky, the pickup time on the second day could have been a little earlier.

we really enjoyed our tour! our tour guide was great (unfortunately I’ve forgotten her name). she was patient and attentive to all group members. The pace of the tour was good and she was very knowledgeable about the history of the site and Athens in general. My shy son even felt comfortable asking her questions.

Guide was very comprehensive and the tour went smoothly from pick-up point! We received good information about Acropolis and artefacts in the museum.
