A deep dive into Greek political history. The duration of the walk was perfect. Isaac was more than apt at both relating everything to every traveller’s own political context at home and answering our questions. All this in a nice humorous and understandable way.

We had a great time walking around Makati with Alex who is from Serbia. He answered all our questions and had good information to share. Would recommend being prepared for lots of walking in the heat or rain depending on the weather!

All cities you visit should have a tour like Isaac’s ‘social political walk’. He doesn’t just provide a wealth of information, but synthesize it, so you get the BIG picture. Obviously, this is aimed at people with a interest in Greek society, but it’s also presented in an entertaining way, so you don’t have to be a geek to enjoy the walk.

This was a thorough discussion of the political situation in Greece using a historical lens. Isaac is passionate and well-informed. Highly recommended! It was a fairly comprehensive discussion of the current political situation in Greece that used a historical approach to better illuminate the present and add some depth beyond the news. Isaac is a passionate and knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended!

Isaac is an amazing storyteller and this tour was really interesting and engaging. We both learned a lot about the history, architecture, neighbourhoods, and political and social context of Athens. Isaac was also familiar with some of the political context in our group members’ home countries so was able to draw parallels in a way that helped all of us learn more! He was also really thoughtful about keeping us in the shade on a 35 degree day. We really enjoyed this tour and it was the perfect way to kick off our time in Athens.
