Itinéraire
Commençant sur les pentes de l'Acropole, entrez dans la colline sacrée à travers les Propylées, une imposante porte de marbre entourant la colline. Émerveillez-vous devant la construction magnifique et inspirée du Parthénon et découvrez les époques de culte et de destruction auxquelles il a été confronté dans sa résilience pierreuse. Jetez un œil à l'éthérée Érechthéion et à ses emblématiques cariatides, les belles filles qui soutiennent la belle structure. Avec votre guide profondément compétent et passionné, découvrez l'histoire, les légendes et les mythes qui enveloppent cet ancien site et profitez d'une vue imprenable sur Athènes et la mer Égée. Rejoignez-nous dans ce voyage dans le temps qui vous montrera les origines mêmes de la démocratie et de la philosophie politique telles que nous les connaissons aujourd'hui.
Ensuite, il est temps de transformer votre voyage à travers l’Antiquité en un voyage gastronomique! Découvrez le meilleur de la scène gastronomique d'Athènes en dégustant des délices tels que des plats faits maison, des «koulouri», des «loukoumades» et de nombreux autres plats locaux. Apprenez à connaître les habitants du marché central animé d'Athènes et découvrez la grande variété de viandes fraîches, de poissons, de légumes et de fruits exposés. Découvrez des stands spécialisés regorgeant d'herbes, d'épices et de condiments colorés et aromatiques; rencontrez de vrais artisans, qui vous montreront combien de temps, de dévouement et d'amour sont consacrés à la production de leurs délices précieux. Là, vous aurez également l'occasion d'essayer certains des plats les plus traditionnels et authentiquement grecs que vous pourriez trouver. Le menu varie, mais certains des choix les plus populaires sont `` gemista '' - les célèbres légumes farcis cuits au four-, la viande à cuisson lente avec un côté de purée de pommes de terre ou de pâtes, le `` fava '' - une trempette aux pois cassés et une casserole de gombo , entre autres. Laissez vos papilles vous faire mal en dégustant des fromages de toute la Grèce, de la charcuterie irrésistible et du café grec parfaitement préparé. En Grèce, nous savons comment nourrir les gens - des aliments frais et délicieux et en abondance (pas de bouchées ici), alors assurez-vous d'avoir faim!
Votre visite se terminera dans le célèbre quartier de Monastiraki, le lieu de rencontre du passé et du présent d'Athènes. Découvrez la célèbre place Monastiraki, avec son marché aux puces et ses monuments historiques importants, et dites au revoir à votre visite parmi l'ambiance vibrante de la région.

Katerina Both tours were fantastic. Marielena is a very special guide and knew everything about the Acropolis.. The Lady K was fantastic as well. The captain was a good host and we had a great day. Thank you for your help.
Hello Bradley, Thank you for the positive feedback regarding our Acropolis tour and Naxos sailing tour. We take pride in having the best team and we couldn’t be happier that you enjoyed the services of your guides on both occasions. Hopefully, you’ll be back in our country soon enough to join us in more of our tours and trips around Greece!
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Maria-Elena - she is an archeologist by training, spoke fluent English and was a fun to spend time with and learn from. As an added plus, she was very comfortable and enjoyable for our teenage daughters too. Perfect experience for our family of 4 to learn about the Acropolis and see the museum. Thank you Maria-Elena and GreekingMe Tours!!!
Dear Michelle, Thank you so much for your feedback and your polite words! We couldn't be happier that you enjoyed yourselves at the tour with Maria-Elena. She is an excellent guide, great with both adults and children and always does her best to engage and involve everyone, by sharing her expertise! She will be grateful to hear your kind words! We are definitely looking forward to meeting you again in the future! Best :)
We used greekingme to book many transfers and tours for our family of four (2 adults and 2 teens). We had a truly outstanding experience with every one of them. Our tours included: Private Acropolis Delights Tour (Acropolis & Food), Private Evening Tour with Meze Dinner, and Private Knossos & Food Tour. We also booked our transfers to/from the airport with greekingme as well as some more challenging logistics in Crete where we requested they hold our luggage while taking tours then transfer us to Elounda. Every single driver and guide that we had was outstanding. They were all passionate about sharing their country. They were all also very well educated and spoken outstanding English. The guides were highlights of our trip. I really can't say enough positive things about them. We also felt the vehicles were very nice and the drivers were always where they were supposed to be and on time. Each of our tours involved a food component and all of them were outstanding. I will give special note to our Heraklion food tour. I thought this one might be a bit questionable as Heraklion seemed to be more of an airport/port town. This food tour ended up being one of our teens' favorite activities (they rated it equal to the day we chartered a sailboat in Santorini!). We really enjoyed meeting the various merchants. And, the food was outstanding. It was my daughter's favorite meal of the trip! Really, truly an outstanding experience booking with greekingme!
Hi there! It is now our turn to say a big thank you for taking the time to share your experience in such detail with other travelers that may wish to join the same tours as you! Hearing that our tours were a success, not just with you but also with our little guests, is of particular importance to us because we value the opinion of all our guests and love to see them leave with a big smile on their face! We honestly hope to see you back in the near future !
Ava was an amazing guide...knowledgeable, fun, and delightful! We loved the Acropolis tour and the local food tasting!!! Do not miss this wonderful tour!
Hello and thank so much for your review about our Acropolis Delights tour! I am very pleased to hear that you had a good time with us in May and we sincerely hope to see you again in the future !!
Our guide, Eva, was the perfect person to show my family around Athens. She was smart, kind, and extremely knowledgable about the history and mythology. Combining the acropolis and a small food tour is a great way to squeeze in what Athens is really known for in one day. Thanks for giving my family a great day they will never forget!
Dear Emilie, Thank you so much for your amazing review! I am absolutely thrilled to hear that you had such an amazing time with Eva, she will be delighted to hear that she made it such a memorable experience for you and your family. We would love to hear from you again next time you are in Greece - please do reach out! Kindest regards,
This tour was recommended to us by friends and I am so glad we booked! Our tour guide was Vera and she is absolutely amazing. She is so knowledgeable and really patience with our boys, 8 and 9. We started off with the Acropolis tour which she really made it so interesting for them, especially all the stories of the Gods. I highly recommend booking the private if you have younger children like us. Following the Acropolis tour we started our food tour which again Vera made extremely interesting and we loved the selection of foods from the traditional breads, the meat and fish markets, our lunch finished with delicious pastries. Thanks Vera, you made our first taste of Greece very special.
Thank you so much for your review! We are extremely glad that we were able to create an enjoyable experience for you and your family during your stay in Athens! Vera will be especially excited to hear that your boys found their Acropolis tour and as well the variety of delicacies you tried were to your liking. We would absolutely love to hear from you again during your next visit to the country! Best wishes,
We travelled to Athens for a family Spring Break trip and couldn't be happier with our experience booking this tour. Our group of 5 included our two children (ages 3 and 5) and the guide did a great job keeping them interested and engaged throughout. The food tour stops were excellent, the history and mythology lessons were interesting and our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She brought a binder with images and renderings of the historical sights we were seeing and notecards with the Greek gods for the kids. It was great and we highly recommend it.
Dear Trevor, Our team is thrilled to hear that you and your family were so happy with your delicious and educational tour! It is so pleasing to hear that your kids also enjoyed it to the fullest as we strive to create family-friendly experiences! We would love to hear from you if you return to Greece! Best,
We were in the port of Piraeus on a cruise and greeking me arranged for a taxi to be waiting for us at the pier. Due to traffic it was about an hour drive to the Acropolis where our tour guide was waiting for us. We were so blessed to have a guide who majored in archeology and was very knowledgeable. The food tour was interesting as well. I especially loved the market and seeing all the fish/meat for sale. They then had a driver ready to take us back to the ship. The communication by email was great and the whole tour ran seamlessly and on time. I highly recommend

Our company aims to deliver the best service, from the transfer between locations to the guide. We would absolutely love to hear from you again the next time that you’re in Greece! Best wishes,
Our company were so satisfied with the Acropolis tour and then with the dinner, all organised by Greeking.me. All communication beforehand was easily and fast. The transportation from the airport was on time, buses clean. Acropolis tour guides were excellent and friendly. The restaurant was a fantastic choice. Walking distance from the Acropolis, tasty food and great music! Almost 80 of our colleagues ended dancing. I am grateful to Greeking.me for helping me to make my colleagues so impressed with our business trip.
