Visite privée d'Athènes d'une journée avec billets pour l'Acropole et le Musée
Description
Laissez-vous inspirer par l'Acropole avec le majestueux temple à colonnade du Parthénon, l'Odéon d'Hérode Atticus, le temple de l'Olympiade Zeus, le stade olympique panathénaïque ou Kalimarmaro, l'éblouissant musée de l'Acropole et le fascinant musée national d'archéologie. Profitez d'une vue panoramique à couper le souffle depuis le mont Lycabette, à 300 mètres d'altitude avant d'être séduit par les bâtiments néoclassiques de la «trilogie architecturale» comprenant la bibliothèque nationale, l'université d'Athènes et l'académie d'Athènes. Le tombeau du soldat inconnu et la relève de la garde royale sur la place Constitution Syntagma sont également intrigants! Monastiraki animé connu pour des monuments emblématiques tels que les ruines de la bibliothèque d'Hadrien, la Stoa d'Attalos et l'ancienne Agora avec son marché aux puces est d'un intérêt significatif! Explorez les rues pavées étroites bordées de petites boutiques, de cafés-terrasses et de tavernes authentiques à Plaka!

Licensed guide, Olesya, and her driver after picking us up early at ports and hotels, had the combined six of us at the Acropolis by 11:00 am to begin our private tour with all the fast-track admission tickets for both the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum. She knew ancient Greek history (which gods and goddesses took center stage in its many temples), and communicated all of it in perfectly spoken English, with her beautiful smile. She also emphasized the architecture - the work, the details, precision, and required skill of building the Parthenon. And just as impressive as her knowledge was, she also recognized everyone’s personalities and stayed attentive to everyone’s needs during the very thorough tour. The Acropolis Museum is a majestic building of contemporary architecture, located some 300 meters south of the foot of the Sacred Rock. Part of the remains dating from Late Roman and early Byzantine times, appear in the opening of the floor in front of the museum entrance, quite a contrast to the museum itself. And very importantly, the museum has scale model replicas of some of the most notable parts of the Parthenon that have been destroyed through time. In conclusion, my wife told me to add to this review, that Olesya is “like Emily in Paris”.
Dear Mr Sidereas! Thank you so much for your wonderful 5* review and for sharing such kind words about Olesya. We are delighted to hear that she and the driver helped make your Athens Full Day Private Tour smooth, informative, and enjoyable from the very start. Olesya will be especially happy to know that her knowledge, attention to detail, warm personality, and care for everyone in your group made such a positive impression. We are also very pleased that you enjoyed the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum, and that the history, architecture, and stories of ancient Athens came to life during your visit. Your wife’s comment that Olesya is “like Emily in Paris” made us smile — what a lovely compliment! Thank you again for choosing us, and we would be honored to welcome you back to Greece in the future. Best regards, George
It’s the perfect full day tour of Athens. Our guide George was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable about Greece, ancient and current. Guided us to some hidden gems and gave us amazing dining options. I would highly recommend.

Our driver Makis was very accommodating despite the big discrepancies between the itinerary provided with the tickets and what he said the company had given him. The overall duration was shorter than the one stated on the ticket and the driver told us that two of the programmed stops could not be done because they were not on his itinerary. One of them the Ancient Athens agora. I think it is overpriced for the time we were given. Specially disappointing is the fact that you feel you were duped. I hope Viator does not keep this company in the future if these discrepancies are not addressed.
Dear Jorge Figueroa, Thank you for your review. We respectfully disagree with several of the points raised, as they do not accurately reflect the tour that was booked and delivered. The tour purchased was clearly advertised as an 8-hour full day private tour of Athens, including prepaid admission tickets to the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum. These services were provided exactly as described. During the tour, your driver was informed of your desire to revisit the Acropolis at sunset. Unfortunately, by that stage of the day it was not possible to redesign the itinerary to accommodate a second Acropolis visit while also completing the scheduled program. Had this preference been communicated in advance, we could have recommended a later start time and structured the day accordingly. Regarding the Ancient Agora, admission tickets to this site are not included in the tour price and this is clearly stated in the tour description. It appears there may have been an assumption that entry to the Ancient Agora was included at no additional cost, but this was never part of the package purchased. The fact that a site is mentioned or passed during the tour does not mean admission tickets are included unless specifically stated in the inclusions. We would also like to clarify that the full tour duration was honored. The driver continued the tour after lunch and ensured that the experience lasted approximately the advertised 8 hours. In addition, members of your party were dropped off at different locations, with some guests being dropped at the National Garden and others at their hotel, as requested. We appreciate your kind comments regarding Makis, who did his best to accommodate your requests throughout the day. However, we cannot agree with the suggestion that the tour was misleading or that you were "duped." The itinerary, inclusions, exclusions, and duration were clearly outlined prior to booking, and the services provided were consistent with those descriptions. We wish you all the best in your future travels. George /AGT Management
Yannis was extremely knowledgeable and was great at telling us about the history and mythology of Athens. He also recommended an amazing place for lunch, which truly was delicious! Definitely a must-do if you plan on exploring Athens.
Hello James, Thank you for your wonderful 5* review! We’re so happy to hear you had an amazing day exploring Athens with Yannis. His knowledge of history and mythology always brings the city to life, and we’re glad his lunch recommendation was a hit too! Thank you for choosing us and for recommending the tour. Best regards from Athens, George
My husband and I didn't know what to expect in a huge city like Athens. However, we had no need to be concerned. Our pleasant and knowledgeable guide, Gianni took excellent care of us. We were blessed to be taken to areas and monuments that we didn't know were in Athens and they had beautiful architecture, and Gianni shared their history with us. We had Fast Track tickets to the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum, we were there on time and afterwards Giannis was right there waiting for us. His knowledge of the area, his driving experience in the very busy traffic, and his sharing of the history of the city was so interesting and we really felt educated afterwards. Our visit to the Athens Changing of the Guard, outside Parliament was a fantastic experience not to be missed. WHAT A TREAT! Afterwards we were safely delivered to Port in Gianni's very clean car. We highly recommend this tour and this guide, he took good care of us and we felt totally safe.
Dear Diane! Thank you for your lovely review! We’re very happy you enjoyed your day in Athens with Gianni. He’ll be so pleased to hear your kind words about his knowledge, driving, and care throughout the tour. It’s great to know you enjoyed the Acropolis of Athens, the museum, and the Changing of the Guard experience. Thank you again for recommending us, and we hope to see you again in Greece someday!
Today was an incredible day of sightseeing with our guide Stelois. He was professional, friendly and full of knowledge about current and past Greek history.
Hi Suzanne! Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had an incredible day exploring with Stelios. His professionalism and passion for both ancient and modern Greek history truly make each tour special. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him! Best regards,. George & the Ancient Greece Tours & Transfers Team
This tour was Amazing. I honestly believe if we did not take the tour, we would not have fully experienced Athens and wasted valuable time figuring out where to go. Our tour guide, was beyond Amazing. Giorgios took special care of us, very knowledgeable and professional.
Hi Frederick! Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re truly happy to hear that the tour helped you experience Athens to the fullest without the stress of figuring everything out on your own — that’s exactly why we do what we do. Giorgos will be so pleased to read your kind words. He takes great pride in making each day special, and it means a lot to know you felt well taken care of and appreciated his knowledge and professionalism. We hope to welcome you back to Athens again soon! All the best, George
This private tour was a great way to get around. We were able to spend as little or as much time as we wanted to at each site. My husband has some mobility issues and he could choose to get out of the vehicle or relax inside as the rest of us got out and explored. Our driver Demetrius was amazing and spoke excellent English, so communication was easy. He referred us to local restraints to eat that were great. We had such a good time with him laughing and enjoying our time together. The tour organizer George was also very accommodating. When we originally book we had five guest. Two of our friends surprised us and joined us on this trip. He was able to make our group 7 with ease and we were still very comfortable in our private Van. Great job and I would absolutely recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for your 5★ review, it puts a smile on our faces! We’re thrilled Dimitri and George made your full-day tour of Athens so enjoyable and flexible, accommodating everyone comfortably and making the experience fun and memorable. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the sites, local tips, and time together. We truly appreciate your recommendation & look forward to being of service to you and your friends in the future. Warm regards, Ancient Greece Tours & Transfers
This is a full day if you want to experience all of Athens. Our driver Giannis was friendly and knowledgeable
Thank you so much for your 5★ review! We’re glad Giannis made your full-day tour of Athens both enjoyable and informative. It’s wonderful to hear you were able to see and experience so much of the city! Warm regards, Ancient Greece Tours & Transfers
