This is a very wonderful explanation. Isaac has a very in-depth understanding and research on the refugee crisis in Greece. Another unexpected bonus for me is that he found many high-quality and low-priced Middle Eastern restaurants. Highly recommended!

Isaac's tour was engaging and incredibly insightful - I learned so much! I appreciated the diverse number of neighborhoods he brought us too as well as the stories he told. The tour on a whole gave my experience of Athens a depth and nuance that was very appreciated and necessary!

This tour was truly excellent. It’s a great way to get a feel for modern Greek politics and society. Isaac is very knowledgeable not only about Greece but global economics and politics. He was able to contrast Greece to Latin-American, Caribbean. North American and Western economies and political structures to help explain the nuances of Greek society. Highly recommend this tour if you want to dig below the surface of the tourist sites and get to learn about this beautiful and complex country a bit more.

The "Athens Social and Political Walk" hosted by Isaac is a fantastic tour. If you're interested in politics and you want to gain a deeper understanding of Greece (beyond of the standard touristic spots), I can definitely recommend Isaac's tour. He will explain to you: - the nation-building of the modern Greek state - the financial crisis in Greece since 2008 and its impact on the rise of populism and radical political groups - the history of the anarchic neighborhood "Exarcheia" and how it is jeopardize by gentrification and a very suppressive use of "Law and Order" by current Greek policy Isaac is an easy-going, interesting and very knowledgeable guide. I appreciated his sophisticated views on current Greece while also giving an international context. As mentioned above: I can absolutely recommend this tour.
