This was a fantastic tour that all the family loved. Demos was a superb guide - knowledgable, engaging, funny. Just the right time everywhere and it was really good to visit the museum right after to get the context. Highly recommended!
Acropolis tour was the best!

Vicky was amazing! She was so knowledgeable. I did not expect so many details. Her knowledge of Greek history was outstanding. Absolutely the best!
Wonderful tour.

I am so pleased we booked this tour. Our guide was Demos - a historian who could also moonlight as a comedian - he made the tour very funny and engaging and went out of his way to include children and teens in everything. I learned far more than I ever would have done if just looking around by myself and my 15 year old daughter also loved it. We chose the option with museum tickets and am glad we did - this really added context and interest too. Thank you Demos!
Anna was great!

This is the second time we have taken this tour. We took it on our first trip to Athens in 2022. We enjoyed it so much that we scheduled it again for this trip. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the Acropolis and the museum. The skip-the-line was very helpful as it saved time and needless standing. Highly recommend.

Our guide was fabulous. Extremely knowledgeable about the sites with charming delivery about how the events leading to the city on the hill unraveled. She's also structured the walk into her narrative so we'll that I just wanted to keep moving :). Appreciate the ability to take and address questions outside of the scope of the tour. Fun and charming memories. Thank you!
fantastic tour! fantastic guide!

My travel buddy and I took this tour and I can't recommend it enough. This walking tour included the Acropolis, Parthenon and museum and entrance tickets are included (which is rare). Joanna was fantastic as she is a history buff and archeologist so her knowledge of the sight was amazing. She also made sure we got to see everything, up close. While explaining history she made sure we were in the shade! It was very crowded and she was patiently waiting for a crowd to disperse to get us close to the sights. Joanna is amazing . Great tour.
Outstanding Experience

A great overall experience. Our positive tour experience is 100% due to our excellent guide, Stelios. Knowledgeable and passionate about archaeology and history, he provided the background we needed to make our tour of the site and museum meaningful. The Acropolis is hot and crowded (for good reason) so a knowledgeable and entertaining guide makes all the difference. Thank you, Stelios!

Thank you for a great tour. I felt I really experienced the site and understood the history and significance. Our guide was pleasant knowledgeable and professional. She got a bit of a hard time from two difficult tour members where we all felt their issue was their own fault. She handled it with patience and grace and I was very impressed. I would book again.
