"Not just a tour, a much necessary experience for everyone who feels the need to connect with the realness of the places they travel too. An exercise of empathy that connects the history of the resistance of Athens and the protagonists of today’s struggle. Our guide was outstanding and it was one of the best tour I ever had!"
