This tour ended being one of my favorite parts of our trip. Our guide was wonderful, and I felt like we had just enough time at all the stops for pictures and taking it all in. The museum was very interesting as well, and there’s a lovely cafe you can stop at after the tour with an amazing view.
Be sure to hydrate and eat beforehand and use the bathroom first. You can only bring in water so no food either! There may be lots of wind going on. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and very sweet, I enjoyed all the things I learned on each stop we made!
Great tour our tour guide Margarite was very informative with lots history and lots of stops under trees to tell us information. It wasn’t rushed she knew all the good photo stops. We then went to the museum which was also informative and interesting.
We had a great tour guide who made the experience fun. It was a very windy day, so it made communication a little hard, but she went above and beyond!
Very knowledgeable tour guide who paid attention to the needs of the group as two people had medical conditions that required them to stop their tour early. She also took pictures of people who wanted their pictures taken at the Acropolis with their family or friends. Very professional and friendly tour guide.
This is the best way to experience both the Acropolis and the museum. Our guide was helpful and friendly. Go early in the morning to beat the crowds. Along the way we saw two construction workers at the Acropolis reading Greek poetry to each other on their break. Only in Athens would you see that!
Mike was so good tour guide. He was so exaited about tour and he took personal contact to every one. I think all of us felt we were on private tour. Thank you
Hula, our tour guide was awesome and worked well to accommodate members of our group that were slow to keep up due to mobility issues! Huge respect!
Voula was a wonderful guide! She definitely knew her history and added her own special flair. We opted for the museum tour which showed us highlights and at the end allowed us to go back and spend additional time.
It was amazing our tour guide was just the best full of information so kind and loved telling all the history!!
