Our guide Anthony gave us a great overview of the places we visited including the myths and history of each location. Would have liked to have stayed longer at Epidaurus where apart from the amphitheater, there are archaeological finds including the Temple of Asklepios that are worth visiting, but the time of an hour is too short. It would have helped if the guide could have informed us how far the sites were and the time it would take us if we opted to visit them, so we could have shortened the time at the amphitheater. The photo stop at Nafpoli could have been shorter or skipped as the archaeological sites seemed more important to explore. Otherwise everything else was well planned and smooth!

This fill day trip was wonderful. If highly recommend it if you're a history buff. The included lunch was some of the most delicious food I've eaten in Greece. I had the vegan selection, which didn't even need to be planned ahead - a small miracle in itself.

Enjoyable but due to delays in the morning the afternoon was changed around and very rushed and we didn't get chance for our lunch to digest before having to climb lots of steps. I felt unwell for the rest of the day. Some older customers didn't even chance making the climb and missed some of the tour.
