We had a brilliant evening tour of central Jakarta with Mar'ie, who is a friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. We learned about Indonesian history, politics, religion, culture, transport and contemporary society, while walking around many key sites - very difficult to the average tourist walk! Mar'ie was happy to answer all our questions and was keen to find out about life and politics in our home country (the UK). Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed the Awful Athens tour. The guide, Maria, provided a fascinating insight into the more obscure parts of Athens and the tour was interwoven with stories from her own family's personal experience in moving to Athens. The tour covered the development of Athens over the past century and right up to present day issues regarding the assimilation of migrants from Afghanistan, Libya and Syria. This tour will show you the 'real' Athens, off the typical tourist trail. Highly recommended!

We loved taking this tour with Isaac, a real highlight of our short stay in Athens. Isaacs knowledge and clear passion for the subjects covered was clear to see. His ability to link examples to individual guests own countries was very impressive. Fascinating insight to areas and topics not easily explored alone. On top of this Isaac is an excellent story teller, very engaging and just a pleasure to spend a few hours with! Book this tour now!

This tour was excellent – it was easy to follow, incredibly interesting, and provided sufficient context to understand the city and country beyond the ancient ruins and delightful food. Isaac is exceptionally knowledgeable and courageous for offering a sociopolitical tour that critically examines the environment while remaining respectful. I wish we could find tours like his in every city we visit. 10/10 would recommend to anyone visiting the city and seeking to learn more about it.
