"I took part in the "Boudoir of the Gods" tour. If you're interested in Greek mythology, this is a tour for you! We enjoyed a beautiful walk on Philopappou hill with an amazing view, while our awesome guides-narrators brought to life unknown and...funny stories about the ancient Greek Gods! Certainly an unforgettable experience that ended the best way, at the top of the hill with a glass of wine while watching the sunset! Thank you guys! Looking forward to the next tour!" Kiki N.
“The tour was different and magical. A lot of information of the gods, the places, the history, the stories...very interesting and different, original, special. And Cristina is the most nice guide we had ever.” Ana (source: TripAdvisor)
“The Mythological Tour with Christina was just amazing. The only thing we regret is, that we didn’t book it earlier. It was not only informative and interesting, but my sister and I also had a great time talking with Christina about the modern greek culture. She is a super open, welcoming young lady. Thank you so much, we can only recommend it to anyone that wants to know about Ancient Greece, whilst having a blast.” Tizia F (source: TripAdvisor)
