“This was one of my best (and most unique) experiences in Athens. George was a great tour guide, taking us on two of the most gorgeous hilltop views of the city. These places weren't touristy, so we got a very clear view of the sea, and all of the landmarks within Athens. He provided an extremely clear explanation of the context and history behind each landmark, with a hint of humour that made the trip all that much better. His knowledge of the city was unmatched, and he provided fantastic recommendations for food, clubs, and other places to visit. I have done many walking tours in Europe (and Athens), and I have to say this one was the most unique. The climbs were relatively easy as well, no physical or athletic background required. If I were to come back to Athens, I would do this trek again. Truly an unforgettable experience that will set the tone for the rest of your trip. Couldn't recommend more.”

“George has a real passion and excitement for authentic Greek experiences. He was very knowledgeable about all the sites and history. The views were amazing, and we got a chance to take photos wherever we needed. Hiking up and down Lycabettus gave us the full experience of the hill. George gave us lots of helpful recommendations for the rest of our vacation as well. I would highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting Athens!”

“George made the start of the day fantastic. We climbed up to Lycabettus Hill in decent time. George pointed out some cool spots on the hike and was a wealth of knowledge. We spent a decent time on the top to take some shots. Thanks mate! Highly recommended!”

“The Split Rock formation alone was worth the trip. But then the summit views... absolutely spectacular. George is a fantastic leader: knowledgeable, funny, and great at pacing the group.”

“Third time visiting Athens, first time actually seeing it properly. George shows you the city that locals know. The hidden balcony viewpoint of the Acropolis was unreal.”

“Best EUR 40 I spent in Greece. Two and a half hours of stunning views, hidden gems, and stories about Athens that you won't find in any guidebook. Book this immediately.”
