The whole trip was great! We were only 6 people in our group so we travelled with a cozy SUV. Everything was on time. Big thanks to our tour guide Apostolis who is very knowledgeable and explained everything with details. You can see that he does what he's passionate about and that shows! Thank you! ☺️

The visit was perfect. The museum and site were just the right size. Views were amazing. There was however an incident with a fellow traveler who was behaving quite insane. The guide, Theodoros, and the driver made sure everyone kept feeling safe. Theo also knows a lot. Would recommend.
