Excellent day!

Published on Sep, 2024

We had a great day touring Athens with an excellent guide. His knowledge, expertise and humor made the day most enjoyable.

Good for a solo traveler...

Published on Sep, 2024

Good for a solo traveler to join a group. The drive to Temple of Poseidon is a bit over an hour. If you have limited time, it may be best to stay in Athens.

Great experience

Amazing experience of Parthenon

Published on Jun, 2024

Amazing mind blowing experience to climb up that hill and get up close and personal view of Parthenon. No words can describe that feeling. Had a very good certified guide from Keyy Tours who was extremely knowledgeable and shared every bit of info of the place.

Anastasia, an excellent guide!

Her energy level was Amazing and her knowledge was outstanding! She took the time to ask each of us individually if we had questions throughout the day.
