This Amazing Tour Was a Highlight of our Trip! - You simply will not find a more knowledgeable, professional, and engaging tour guide than Niobe! It was truly OUR privilege for our party of four adults to be on a group tour with her; we saw and learned more about the Acropolis and the Museum in our time with her than we would have been able to do in two+ days on our own! When we had areas of particular interest to us, Niobe happily pivoted to accommodate anything special we wanted to discuss and learn about -- things we NEVER would have seen and learned about otherwise. She was a pleasure to be with throughout our time together, and I am quite certain our broader group felt exactly the same way. We truly cannot recommend Niobe more highly; with her depth of knowledge and expert assistance, your visit to the Acropolis and the Museum will certainly be an absolute highlight of your trip!

Small group, early entry Walking Tour Athens - is the way to go - We found Athens Walking Tours on Trip Advisor and very happy with our choice. We have a good friend that lives in Athens and her only recommendation was "go early" to the Acropolis. To that advise we added the "small group" walking tour and it was perfect. The early start time gave us almost an hour or more ahead of all the cruise ship tours. Plus you beat the heat in addition to the crowds. We have 4 couples in our group so it was easy to navigate and "bob and weave" as the crowds grew. Our tour guide Niobe was awesome! She was so sweet, relaxed and new all the shady spots to stop to rest and talk. She had extensive knowledge of all things Greek (not just about the Acropolis) and we really appreciated not only the learning aspect, but just how easy she made it all. We felt like we were in our own little bubble as the mass of humanity grew as the morning progressed. Highly recommend early morning and small group tours for a more personalized experience. Thank you Niobe for sharing your time and knowledge with us
