Best Acropolis Tour - Jessica was superb, my teenage daughter and I enjoyed every single part of the tour! The guide is native in Dutch and almost so in German, providing deep insights of the historic and archeologic background of the Acropolis. Go for the combined tour including the museum, it's so more rewarding.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable day with Little Owl Tours! - Our experience with Little Owl Tours in Athens was simply fantastic! From the first moment we felt well looked after – the organisation was perfect, everything went on time and relaxed. We were particularly impressed by the individual design of the tour: Our wishes were taken into account so that we could enjoy a tailor-made experience.
The highlight? Our children had a lot of fun – playful, exciting and absolutely family friendly! So sightseeing is really fun! We as parents could sit back and enjoy the tour just as much.
Little Owl Tours impresses with a thoughtful concept, great guides and a warm atmosphere. We would book again at any time and can highly recommend it. Thank you for this great day – keep it up! 😊

Great kids tour Akropolis with Jessica - We booked a kids tour with Jessica to the Akropolis and we we couldn’t have been happier. It turned out great for everyone in our family (aged 3 - 80) and we loved all the stories Jessica could tell about the Akropolis and the Greek mythology. Kids loved the puzzle.

Acropolis tour without stress - We had a private tour with seven people. From the inquiry to the payment, everything went absolutely smoothly. From the emergency phone number to the entrance tickets, everything was organized for us. Really top organization.
Our guide Jessica gave a very interesting tour. Very good and entertaining mix of information and anecdotes. She was able to answer all questions and was very relaxed and personable. We can only recommend Little Owl.
