Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Rencontrez votre Guide à notre bureau à Mitseon 2, Athens, 11742, au moins 15 minutes avant l'heure de début de la visite et commencez la visite par une visite de la colline de l'Acropole. En montant, vous visiterez le Théâtre Dionysos, où tous les drames et tragédies antiques célèbres ont été joués pour la première fois. Vous vous promènerez autour de l'étonnant Odéon d'Hérode Atticus, et du sanctuaire du dieu guérisseur Asclépios. Au sommet de la colline, vous visiterez la Propylée, le temple de Niké, le temple Erechthéion, et bien sûr le Parthénon, symbole de la démocratie et de la civilisation occidentale. Datant du Ve siècle av. J.-C., ces monuments sont des témoignages de la glorieuse Athènes antique et de l'âge d'or de Périclès. Faites une courte pause avant de continuer vers le musée de l'Acropole, pendant laquelle vous pourrez utiliser la salle de bain.
Juste après la visite de l'Acropole, vous aurez la possibilité de visiter le musée de l'Acropole situé à quelques minutes à pied du site de l'Acropole. Au rez-de-chaussée les artefacts exposés vous dévoilent des facettes de la vie quotidienne athénienne; vous apprenez à connaître les coutumes du mariage, les jouets préférés des enfants, les techniques de guérison, les pratiques religieuses. Au premier étage, vous ferez l'expérience de vous tenir à distance de respiration des mystérieuses statues archaïques du VIe siècle av. J.-C. qui ornaient autrefois l'Acropole. Laissez-vous fasciner par la marche à côté des Caryatides et d'énormes morceaux de l'entrée de l'Acropole. Au dernier étage, à côté de la vue imprenable sur l'Acropole, on peut admirer la frise originale unique dans son concept et son excellence artistique.
Promenade au Parthénon qui était dédié à la déesse Athéna, la patronne de la ville d'Athènes. Admirez ce zénith du Ve siècle de l'architecture de l'ordre dorique.
Passez la ligne et vivez le frisson de voir le Théâtre de Dionysos où de nombreuses comédies et tragédies antiques célèbres ont été jouées pour la première fois.
Continuez jusqu'au théâtre romain de l'Hérodon qui a été construit à la mémoire de la femme d'Hérode Atticus.
Montez jusqu'à la porte de l'Acropole, les Propylées.
Admirez la vue sur le temple d'Athéna Niké.
Enfin, voir l'Erechtheion qui est un chef-d'œuvre unique de l'architecture principalement en raison de sa composition asymétrique, et ses supports comprennent 6 figures féminines sculptées.

We had trouble with booking and the tour company went above and beyond to make (my mistake) correct. Our tour guide, Angel, was wonderful and very knowledgeable. She was very funny and also made sure to take breaks in shaded spots as to not overheat during the climb.

Lydia was awesome! She was very knowledgeable, informative and incredibly passionate which enhances the experience. The first 1/2 to 2/3 part of the tour was inside the museum (~1600-1845) and the final portion up at the Parthenon. It was FABULOUS! The experience is so rich in history and so close to the artifacts it’s a MUST do. Lydia delivered on her “best picture without other tourists and scaffolding” (which is what all the hundreds of tourists were seeking 😆). The timing of the tour is well planned; we were in the museum first and atop the Parthenon for the end, with a lovely evening view (& sun). HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
Dear Tiffany, Thank you so much for your fantastic and detailed review! We are delighted to hear that you had such a fabulous experience with Lydia. Her knowledge, passion, and energy truly help bring the Acropolis and the Museum to life, and she will be thrilled to know how much you appreciated her guidance. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the flow of the tour, from the museum to the Parthenon, and that the timing allowed you to experience both the artifacts up close and the stunning evening views from the Acropolis. We’re especially glad you managed to capture those memorable photo moments Lydia promised! Thank you for your enthusiastic recommendation. We would be absolutely delighted to welcome you again for another unforgettable experience in Athens. Warm regards, The Athenian Tours Team Experience the Essence of Athens
The tour started on time. The guide tried his best to explain everything clearly , the history …… we were given enough time for photo opportunity. The museum is a must. Surely, it is a long excursion.
We booked the Acropolis and Museum tour with tickets through Athenia Tours just two days before our visit after another tour company let us down, and we’re so glad we did. Our guide, Lydia, was exceptionally organized and managed to pack an impressive amount of information, historical context, and visual references into a relatively short tour. Some people might find her pace a little faster than usual, but we actually appreciated it, especially given the huge crowds that day—which will likely only increase as the summer season reaches its peak. We learned so much throughout the tour. Lydia pointed out the best photo spots and highlighted the most significant and memorable artifacts and landmarks, helping us make the most of our visit. She also made a consistent effort to keep the entire group together and regularly reminded everyone about the slippery marble surfaces, which showed genuine care and concern for the group’s safety. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an informative, efficient, and well-organized Acropolis experience.
Terrific! Easy check in process, tickets were provided for both the Acropolis and Acropolis Musuem, and our tour guide (Yolanda) was fantastic!
Dear Abby, Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you had such a smooth experience from the check-in process to the visit of the Acropolis and the Museum. It’s great to know everything was well organized for you and that the included tickets made your experience even easier. Yolanda will be very happy to hear your kind words. Her professionalism and enthusiasm truly help make each tour special. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again for another fantastic experience in Athens. Warm regards, The Athenian Tours Team Experience the Essence of Athens
This was a fantastic tour! Our tour guide Georgina was so nice and knowledgeable about everything having to do with the acropolis and the Parthenon and all of the Greek Gods. The Parthenon is just amazing and the views from there are breathtaking. The climb up was not too bad and we took stops on the way up for Georgina to explain something else we were seeing. Would highly recommend this tour when visiting Greece. We also opted to do the museum tour which was a great addition . Loved seeing the uncovered ruins that were discovered when they started building the museum.
Dear Linda, Thank you very much for your fantastic review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your tour and that Georgina made such a positive impression. Her kindness and deep knowledge of the Acropolis, the Parthenon, and Greek mythology truly help bring these incredible sites to life, and she will be very happy to read your kind words. It’s wonderful to know that you were able to fully appreciate the beauty of the Parthenon and the breathtaking views from the Acropolis. It is indeed a truly unforgettable experience. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in the future for more amazing experiences in Athens. Warm regards, The Athenian Tours Team Experience the Essence of Athens
The tour is wonderful. We learned so much about the Acropolis and the Parthenon. It was fascinating to learn the culture and the government 2500 years ago! Our tour guide was excellent. We recommend including the museum in your tour. Beautiful artifacts and a city below the museum!
Dear Sandie, Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and found the experience of the Acropolis and Parthenon both educational and fascinating. It’s always rewarding to share the rich history, culture, and governance of ancient Athens, and we’re so pleased it resonated with you. We also appreciate your recommendation regarding the Acropolis Museum. It truly is an incredible complement to the site, offering beautiful artifacts and unique views over the ancient city beneath it. Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation.
