A great historical experience! - The historical information wasn’t too much or too little. Our guide was super friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The walk was long but so well worth it! Our Guide regularly stopped and checked in on us to see if we needed to rest etc. the whole experience was of perfect pace and duration! We highly recommend this tour.

Amazing !! - Amazing !! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. Yes you can walk around on your own but hearing the history adds so much more value I highly reccomend this. It was not overly expensive and if this is a once in a lifetime trip it’s worth every penny.

Family from NYC - Our tour guide Nikolaos was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took extra time to tell stories for our 2 children (4 and 6 yrs old). We stopped on the south slope at several locations to break up the trek to make the tour manageable for our kids. Would highly recommend.

Must do - This was a lovely experience, our tour guide was very informative. It was not overcrowded, a wonderful time to go up to the Acropolis. Whilst you can enter the site without a guide, i highly recommend a guide that talks through the history and monuments, it makes a more fulfilling experience.
