Pick up was on time, there is a good history of Greece and Athens section during transit to the tavern. Maria and Julian the drivers were exceptional tour guides. The experience at the tavern was exactly what we were looking for. Traditional Greek dancing to include the must see adiétalo dance. Must book experience!!! You won’t regret it.

Beautiful day, friendly staff. We also had a very good lunch. The only "negative" thing, and that it was supposed to be semi-private (maximum 6 people), instead we were more than 10 overall. However, I highly recommend this mini catamaran tour.

It was a fantastic experience. Staff were friendly and made the trip good! Can definitely be recommended

Beyond words-this was the absolute perfect excision on last day of our trip. Food was delicious!!

Ye really cool thing to do, few laughs and a little insight into the history of theatre
