Itinéraire
Commencez vos aventures d'une journée avec le choix évident: la colline de l'Acropole. Laissez votre guide vous montrer le chemin du rocher sacré, en expliquant l’histoire des impressionnants monuments de l’Acropole, notamment le Parthénon, le Temple de Nike, la Propylée et l’Érechthéion, et raconter des mythes du passé.
Après votre visite sur la colline de l'Acropole, vous rejoindrez le musée moderne de l'Acropole à pied. Les impressionnantes salles du musée abritent des expositions et des artefacts vieux de près de 3 000 ans, laissant ses visiteurs émerveillés. Avec votre guide agréé à vos côtés, vous apprendrez tout sur les coutumes et la vie quotidienne des anciens Grecs, tout en admirant les impressionnantes créations millénaires.
Après le musée de l'Acropole, vous pourrez vous promener dans le quartier pittoresque de Plaka afin d'admirer ses édifices et monuments néoclassiques emblématiques, tels que le monument choragique de Lysicrates! Le charme d'antan et l'ambiance détendue de la région feront sûrement de Plaka l'un de vos endroits préférés d'Athènes!
Après Plaka, vous aurez l'occasion d'admirer l'Agora romaine de l'extérieur, construite entre le 19ème et le 11ème siècle avant JC. avec une donation de Jules César et Auguste.
Descendez les rues d'Athènes et rejoignez la place électrisante de Monastiraki, réputée pour ses monuments historiques et son marché aux puces varié. Observez Athènes des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles se dévoiler sous vos yeux et admirer la mosquée Tzistarakis, la bibliothèque d'Hadrien et l'église Pantanassa. toutes les parties significatives du patrimoine d'Athènes.
Votre promenade se poursuivra sur la place Syntagma, où vous pourrez admirer le parlement grec et la célèbre fontaine qui orne son centre. Si vous avez de la chance, vous pourrez également assister à la relève des gardes présidentiels, appelés "Evzones" et revêtus de l'uniforme grec traditionnel, qui ont lieu toutes les heures!
Pour échapper à la jungle de béton, vous marcherez ensuite vers le jardin national de Grèce, juste à côté du parlement grec, où vous aurez la chance de respirer le parfum de centaines d’espèces végétales.
Dirigez-vous vers le stade panathénaïque, où se sont déroulés les premiers Jeux olympiques modernes!
Votre visite s'achèvera une fois que vous aurez tourné vos yeux vers le temple de Zeus Olympien, le temple colossal situé au centre de la capitale grecque, dédié au père des dieux!

The quality of the guide was excellent. The timing and approach worked well for a family of 8 including two children (8 and 10). The system for meeting the tour guides is terrible. Come stand near a metro station and ask every person with a badge around their neck whether they are your tour guide (they weren't). No signs, no organization. Ended up working with too much effort. Cost is high. The tour on the bus after lunch was not impressive... just two stops neither of which was there any 'tour' information. Tickets are adde on after you pay for the tour. In excess of $1,600 for the family. All in all thought it was well done..
Thank you for taking the time to review your experience, Charles. We are thrilled to hear that the quality of your guide was excellent and that the tour's timing worked so well for your family. We really appreciate all of your feedback, and we are so glad that, all in all, you found the experience well done. Thank you for choosing Greeking.me!
We had a wonderful experience visiting the Acropolis with our guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and brought the history of the site to life with fascinating stories and insights. What made the tour especially memorable was the attention and kindness she showed to our 6-year-old daughter. She made a genuine effort to include her throughout the tour, keeping her interested and entertained. Our daughter absolutely loved her and genuinely enjoyed spending time with her, which made the experience so much more enjoyable for our whole family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an informative, enjoyable, and family-friendly tour.
What a beautiful review, Inna! The Acropolis has a way of leaving a lasting impression, and knowing your daughter walked away with such a love for it makes this extra special for us. An engaged and happy 6-year-old at an ancient monument? That's a win we're very proud of! We hope to welcome you back again soon!
Anna made our Athens tour an incredible experience. She was knowledgeable, funny, energetic, and did an amazing job bringing the history of Athens to life for our family. We especially appreciated the extra effort she made helping us visit Krinos and sharing its pharmacy history, which was very meaningful to us as pharmacists. Highly recommend both Anna and Greeking.me for anyone wanting a fun and personalized tour experience in Greece.
Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback, Randy! We are thrilled that our team could bring Athens' rich history to life for your family. It's fantastic to hear that the special stop at Krinos and its pharmacy history resonated so deeply with your professional background. Creating these personalized, meaningful moments is exactly what we love to do. We hope to see you all again soon!
We had a perfect day with our guide Danae and our driver in the afternoon Kostas. Danae guided us up to the Acropolis in the morning and explained us everything with her profound archeological and history knowledge. We skipped (from the beginning) the Akropolis Museum (did it next day on our own) and visited Plaka by foot. A good lunch in a nice restaurant chosen by Danae was followed by the City Tour with a lot to see and excellent explanations.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review, Gabriele. It truly made our day! We are thrilled that our guide's deep knowledge of archaeology and history brought the Acropolis to life for you, and that the flexible approach to your itinerary worked out so well. It means the world to us to know that every part of the day left you with such great memories of Athens. We truly hope to see you again soon on another adventure!
This was a highly informative, in depth tour of the Parthenon, Acropolis and the museum. Elias was a walking encyclopedia. He clearly has a passion for the topics he covered and extensive training. We learned so much from our time on the tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to do more than just look at some monuments and move on!
So glad you enjoyed your full day exploring Athens with Elias! His passion and knowledge really shine through, and we’re delighted you found the tour both informative and enjoyable. Thank you for recommending it!
We had a wonderful experience with Greeking.me and especially loved the Athens portion of our tour. The museum tour was a standout — rich in history and perfectly paced — and our guide Jason was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire experience enjoyable and informative. Our only complaint is that, due to having a slower-moving group, the city driving tour portion was cut quite short and we didn’t get to see as much of Athens as we’d hoped. That said, the company handled the situation very professionally and made it right with us, which speaks volumes about their reliability and customer service. I would definitely recommend Greeking.me, but I also suggest discussing timing and any necessary adjustments with your tour guide ahead of time to ensure you get the full 7-hour experience that works for your group’s pace.
Thank you so much for the kind words and helpful feedback! We’re really glad you enjoyed the tour with Jason; he’s fantastic. Timing can be tricky with varied paces, but we’re happy we could make things right. Hope to welcome you back soon!
All day tour of the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the museum and the Plaka neighborhood with a wonderful guide. Tina was amazing. Very knowledgeable, fun and easy going.
Thank you so much, Ana! We're so glad you enjoyed the full Athens experience. Tina will be thrilled to hear your kind words; she truly has a gift for bringing history to life in the most fun and relaxed way. Hope we get to welcome you again soon!
This was an amazing tour. Our guide Elias was so knowledgeable and really made the experience for us. We highly recommend this one!
We’re so glad you had a great time with Elias; he truly brings history to life! Thanks for recommending us!
Our family of 5 (2 adults, 2 college kids and 1 high school kid) took the 7 hour priate tour in june 2025. Our tour guide was really nice, and we're really glad we got to see the acropolis and museum. But the 7 hour tour was probably too long for us, and the information learned from the guide was ok, not great -the storytelling / detail was kind of boring. In retrospect, we probably should have joi we didn't feel we learned anything more interesting or personalized than we would have gotten from a larger tour, and we didn't love the things we did outside of the the acropolis / museum.
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're glad you enjoyed the Acropolis and the museum, and we appreciate your feedback on the pacing and content. It helps us continue refining our experiences to better suit each group’s preferences.
We had a really good time with our guide, Katerina. She was very personable and knowledgeable, and she was a perfect host! We would highly recommend the private tour for a small group.
So glad you had a great time with Katerina! She truly has a gift for making every tour feel personal and memorable. Thank you for recommending the private tour; it means a lot!
