Probably was to be the highlight of our experience in Athens- or at least an integral part of our trip. I went with my partner on this tour, and there was a great group of people. This was our first full day in Athens. We went to the Acropolis and Plaka area in the morning which was beautiful but obviously full of tourists. Then we went to this tour and saw another view of Athens. No city is perfect and the tour highlighted the reality of a lot of people living in the city and how it got to that point. It was illuminating, and you can tell that Isaac has a deep knowledge and passion for his subject. It’s not a pretty tour and he never claims it to be, but if you want to have a unique perspective and experience book it. It was thought provoking, I went with my partner. We went to dinner afterwards and talked through the night about everything we learned and our perspectives on it. Hope to do his other tours next time I am in the city.
It was a great tour concentrated with many nuances in connection with the Greek politics and history. If you are a beginner, it might be challenging for you to comprehend the tour stories. However, if you are looking for something to make your brain working and expand your political knowledge, this tour is for you. Isaac is very passionate about what he does.

If you are interested in politics, and social issues and you like to see a different side of Athens, this is your tour. Isaac is very friendly and knowledgeable. He showed parts of the city I would normally not visit so easily. He made me look beyond the tourist layer of the city. And last but not least, I got to know where to get some food falafel so that’s where I bought lunch for on the road some days later ;).
10/10 - Isaac us well informed and gave us a lot of perspective for our time in Athens. It’s a perfect intro to modern Greece and its many influences!

This was a truly incredible tour filled with unbiased analysis, storytelling, empathy, and humor. It’s like listening to your favorite political podcast but you get to interrupt with your own questions. As a foreign tourist, I feel I have a much more balanced, complete picture of the Greek identity.
