A beautiful walk while listening to a great storyteller. Highly recommend. - Michalis was our story teller. I won’t spoil it for you but there are games along with other activities. We had a great time and it is a wonderful way to spend a night walking, talking, listening and having fun. It is a beautiful walk and you will love Michalis’s stories and his way of telling them. We were very happy with our tour and would highly recommend it.

Greek mythology - with some added twists! - An excellent tour. Michael knows the subject matter in great depth and was able to handle even the most abstract questions our group could throw at him. There was some unexpected audience participation too (not giving spoilers!) and some handy tips on the best photo spots as an added bonus. A fun evening for those interested in knowing more about ancient Greek mythology.

Stories and stars full of heads - Many stories about mythology told throughout the city walk passing near archaeological points of interest, our guide passed on his knowledge with passion and humor making the experience immersive and interesting. Point of Improvement: A visual aid might help newbies better understand the topics. In addition, an audio system could add value to understanding the lexicon fields used, which can be very specific.
