A must see/do! - The tour was very well educated to us by our tour guide. She definitely knew her stuff! The views and pictures we were able to capture came out lovely! The walk truly wasn't as bad as I thought it would have been with this summer heat. I would advise to do the early AM tour just as we did!

Anastasia is a goddess! - At times we felt as though we were time travellers observing rituals, battles and theatrical performances that occurred there throughout antiquity. Very entertaining and informative. The museum tour that followed was also exceptional. Thanks again Anastasia!

Acropolis walking tour - We had a great guide, his name is Kimon/Simon, it was very hot but he was always trying to find a shaded place for us and was very knowledgeable, he explained everything very well. Thank you

Come back next time for a Marathon run? - Our guide Artemis was able to contextualize centuries of history into a relatable and entertaining manner that kept you engaged the whole tour. We were invited to return to her beloved Athens for reasons which she personalized based on her own life experience as a proud Athenian. Marathon anyone?

I really enjoyed this tour - Absolutely enjoyed our tour to the Acropolis thanks to our guide Stevey. Our tour was scheduled for 9:00 am and not only began on time but the registration process was nice and smooth. Stevey (can’t spell her full name) was super knowledgeable. She explained in good english and was very detailed. She was friendly and encouraged us to ask questions. I definitely recommend.

History comes to life - This tour was our first visit to Athens and the Acropolis. Our guide, Artemis, was not only incredibly educated on the history of the area but was so well versed that we could feel the history come alive.
