Un buen paseo, sin llegar a ser inolvidable. Que venga con auriculares hace toda la diferencia. Viña Partenón fue una sorpresa, no estaba en nuestros planes. Faltó un baño disponible en una parte del recorrido. Lo recomendaría igual.

Buena opción
Lo disfrutamos mucho, aunque hay cosas por mejorar. Es una forma muy práctica de ubicarte en la ciudad el primer día. Si lo comparás con hacerlo por tu cuenta, conviene. Parthenon fue una sorpresa, no estaba en nuestros planes. Nos hubiera gustado saber antes que había que caminar bastante. Vale la pena, sabiendo lo anterior.

Um prazer
Super recomendo. Temple of Athena Nike nos surpreendeu, não esperávamos algo assim. Pelo que inclui, o preço é mais que justo. O guia falava os dois idiomas do grupo sem dificuldade. Nunca teríamos chegado a Acropolis of Athens por conta própria. Logística afiada, dá para ver que fazem isso todo dia.

Very good
I would do it again, though I would change a couple of things. It costs more than going alone, but it saves you all the planning. You could tell it was properly organised. We got more out of Walking Tour than we expected. The only miss was no water available, especially in that heat. Recommended overall.

Lo mejor del viaje
Una de las mejores cosas que hicimos en Atenas. El guía hizo la diferencia, se le notaba que le gusta lo que hace. La atención previa a la reserva fue muy clara con todas nuestras dudas. Terminar en Templo de Atena Nice Atenas fue el mejor cierre.

Cannot recommend enough
Highly recommended, no reservations. The group was not huge, which made it much more comfortable. If you are in Atenas, do not miss it.
