With the terrible weather, we had to move to Plan B, so it was less of a walk. Nevertheless, Chami, our guide, did her best to keep our group engaged. She's refreshingly frank about her country's challenges and needed accountability to move forward, but she delivered her perspective with patriotic optimism. This is an unusual thought-provoking experience.

This tour was honestly one of the best experiences I have experienced as a traveler. I came into the tour with open expectations but what we learned and gathered from Isaac redefined the rest of our time in Athens, shaping conversations with locals in ways that they appreciated, aided us in our further explorations, and provided rich, relevant context to our wanderings thru the city. A fun, lively and interesting mix of PoliSci, history and funny wisdom, the tour winds thru major buildings and probably missed neighborhoods, where he gives a rich background to events that unfolded in and around them, not just centuries ago, but now, as well. A must for those interested in both sides of the story, those looking for something more than the usual, spoon fed tourist attraction narratives, and those who love to know a little about what's going on politically in a place. Absolutely Loved It. Wish I could do this in every place I visit, and even at home.

Issac was a genuine, enthusiastic, HIGHLY knowledgable and insightful guide. He brought color, clarity and context to help us understand how Greece came to its present situation. Thanks Issac for a fun and engaging tour! A great modern counterpoint to the Ancient attractions of Athens.

Such an illuminating experience! We saw Greece through a whole new set of eyes and learned so much through this immersive experience. Added bonus, you get a bit of a street art tour but with deep context behind the art!

Wow! Isaac is brilliant and hilarious and guides you through thousands of years of history like a breeze. I left the tour feeling like I'd learned SO MUCH and inspired to learn more. I will take Isaac's other tours when I return to Athens. Highly recommend this unusual way to tour Athens.
