Mercury met us in our hotel. He sat with us as we finished a quick lunch as our flight had delayed. He confirmed what we wanted to see and gave us a brief history lesson on Athens. He was great and very patient with our walking pace as it was very very hot. I was impressed that he was very familiar with the email I sent weeks before our our arrival highlighting our interests. He more than exceeded our expectations. He has three university degrees and answered a whole range questions that added understanding of Athens and Greek culture. Couldn't recommend him more highly.
