Fantastic! Meeting Maria was as easy as you can make it in a city with a million people. She is as friendly and personable as you could ask for. She took the time to explain thoughts or ideas and was concise in her details of the places, shops, streets and areas as you could ask of someone. Take this tour as a beginning to your time in Athens. She provided enough thoughts and answers that I was actually able to construct a good visitation plan for the next several days.
Maria gave an unforgettable look into Greek culture and history. We had a wonderful time with her. She's got a great personality and is so knowledgeable! Getting to spend an evening with her was such a treat.
This was a phenomenal tour! Maria is so personable and knowledgeable. She covered a wide variety of topics - history, religion, culture, etc. We learned so much and had an amazing time. I highly, highly recommend this tour!
As my husband said after completing this activity, this was one of the top tours we have ever been on in our lives. Maria was incredibly informative, warm, and passionate about Athens. Highly recommend - do it within the first couple days of your trip, and you'll have a much better sense of where to focus your time in this magical city.
Maria was so knowledgeable and friendly. Great at giving history, making you feel welcome, and gave excellent local tips for places to go and must-sees. Highly recommend!
Maria was funny, kind and a great host on our first day in Athens. It was the perfect way to start our holiday to the city as it gave us the best snippets of history and our sense of bearings. And it’s a wonderful way to see the city through a locals eyes.
We were looking for a tour that was more in-depth with a local perspective and that was exactly what we got! Maria appealed to my husband’s love of ancient history and my passion for learning about communities. The walking tour gave us a better understanding of Athens’ past and its development into the city today. Would highly recommend this tour!

Maria's walking tour was a delight. She was knowledgeable, patient, and passionate. Her old-time photos brought Athens' history to life. She shared both historical facts and personal insights, making the tour engaging and memorable. Additionally, Maria ensured that our group, which included a person with a cane, was comfortable and at a suitable pace. I would highly recommend Maria!
This was an awesome tour about the history and area. Maria was really knowledgeable, friendly and cares about people. She took extra time to give me a brief tutorial about navigating the subway. Highly recommend

Maria has a wealth of knowledge about Athens past and present. She will help you get orientated and give good recommendations of non touristy places to eat and drink.
Maria is engaging, fun and with a good energy about her.
A highly recommended tour 😊
I had a great time with Maria and the group to explore the main sights of Athens on my first day in the city. She has a very interactive, fun way to transmit historical facts, local customs and general information that made the 3 hours we eventually took fly by very fast which stood out from other tours in Athens I took. Thank you!
Maria is a great host who has some solid knowledge about Athens. She did take a bit longer in our walk than the listing showed, but I was secretly hoping for that to be the case as I'm very much a long walk person. I very much enjoyed the walk and would do it again with her.
What a fantastic tour! Our guide Maria was amazing. She has an extensive knowledge of Greek history and culture, and is able to convey this in a clear and enthusiastic way. She also succeeded in creating a beautiful connection to modern Athens, which made the tour even more fascinating. Her enthusiasm for Greek traditions and customs is contagious – for example, I never knew what the 'evil eye' really means and that you have to spit three times for good luck! I also learned that 50% of Greek women are named Maria, which she explained in a serieus and fun way. Additionally, she gave great tips for places to eat and drink. In short: don't hesitate and book this tour, you won’t regret it!.
