Highlights
- Acropolis - Your guide will meet you right by the entrance of the site, and will start ascending with you to the top of the hill, finding the best spots on the way up to stop and help you visualize the Golden Age of Pericles which was when most of the monuments on the hill were built. Climbing up you will see and hear explanations about the Filopappos hill, the Herodium odeon, the Dionysius theatre, the Pnyx hill - birthplace of Democracy and the Areopagus hill. Stopping before the Propylaea, you will have an excellent view of the temple of Wingless Nike and the Ancient Agora, where Socrates, Plato and Aristotle introduced great philosophical schools. Walking through the Propylaea you will reach the top and you will see the breathtaking Parthenon and the Erechtheion temple opposite it, where the Karyatides stood instead of columns to support the roof.

Private Acropolis - Konstandina was one of the best guides I’ve ever had anywhere in the world, full of facts and trivia, real people person, perfect English, tireless and sensitive to our interests n pace. We got so lucky! Everything went super smooth. Pricy for private guide, but, well worth it.

Awesome day at the Acropolis! - Niki accommodated us for a last minute private tour of the Acropolis. My family of four includes 2 adults, a 12 yr old, and a 16 yr old, and our tour guide kept all of us engaged. Dimitris was very knowledgeable and was able to provide cultural and historical context for all of the sites. He was amazing!
Highly recommend a private tour (vs large group tour) of the Acropolis in particular.

Niki can’t be beat! - Niki planned the entire trip itinerary for our weeklong Greek vacation from Athens, to Kalambaka and Meteora, to Delphi, and Olympia. All tours were arranged, expert guides provided, and every need taken care of. She herself was so very friendly and helpful, extremely knowledgeable about the Acropolis and museum in Athens. Not only did we have a great time, we made a new friend. 👍🏻🙂 Can’t wait until we can bring our kids next time!

Best 2 Days in Greece Ever - We had a great 2 days of touring Cape Sounion, Athens, the Acropolis Hill and museum, Corinth, a winery and Nafplion. It was amazing and they were very accommodating of our ever-changing schedule and working around weather issues. Niki and Patrick are literally my 2 favorite people in Greece. Highly recommend!
