This was a big highlight of my trip to Athens. For any visitors wanting to peer behind the veil of tourism and learn about modern Greece—the good, the bad, and the ugly—this is for you. So valuable to have all that context throughout the remainder of my stay. Plus I finally know whether to order the Greek coffee or Turkish coffee.

The tour was amazing! Isaac is absolutely fascinating. While giving a lot of important and interesting information, he's also an excellent story teller. He left our group in shock/awe again and again from the stories and naratives he conveyed. Highly recommended!

This is a super experience if you are: A TRAVELER, interested in understanding how a city evolves, want to know the true meaning of gentrification, want to understand Athens, do something you will remember more than museums. A big thank you to Isaac for sharing his unique city knowledge.

I am beyond culture shocked. Issac took me around to see the neighborhoods that tourists don’t see. I really enjoyed learning about the refugee background and how they survive with whatever they have. This is definitely an off the beaten path kind of tour. You will get to know Athens from a very different perspective.

Really interesting tour! Isaac has great knowledge of the political and economical factors involved. So grateful to him for helping me distribute some items to families we came across and appreciate him being able to take me to places I’d only read about...and some areas I would never have known about and never have visited alone! Really different side of Athens seen and crucial for not forgetting the challenges disadvantaged people in society face.
