Our family (6) trip at the Acropolis of Athens 2024 July - We arrived a little late and they waited for us, so that was a good start. : ) Our guide Alexia was a real professional, she knew just about everything about the place (if you're reading this, thank you again from Hungary). The tour wasn't hard at all because we regualarly rested in the shade. The pace was relaxing and we had time to see every important part of the site and Alexia didn't let us get lost in the crowd. It was an amazing experience and we learned so much about Athens in the ancient times. I can only recommend it!

Great way to see the sights - Our tour guide was wonderful, patient , knowledgeable and navigated throughout with perfect precision. She also took photos for us in the perfect spots. We enjoyed the museum as well, lunch was good in a busy restaurant and it was nice to be led there and have a table waiting. Definitely recommend.

Low stress way to see the Acropolis. - Our guide George was amazing in hand so knowledgeable. Add the lunch / it’s worth it and you are hungry by the tour I’d over. Do yourself a favor and let the experts guide the way.

Great tour made amazing due to the tour guide! - Anna (Annie) was amazing! She was extremely knowledgeable and passionate. She masterfully navigated our group through the acropolis on a very very busy day as lines were long trying to leave. The only reason I wouldn’t give 5 stars was the lunch portion which they forgot. The tour agency quickly made ir right, apologized and had someone walk us to the restaurant personally which was awesome but the restaurant didn’t seem to pleased to host me and my wife and we felt we were inconveniencing them. We felt their frustration and we should not have as a patron. If we weren’t tired, hungry, and didn’t pre-pay for it through our tour we would have left.

Fabulous walking tour with extremely knowledgeable guide - This tour was fabulous! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and planned the tour so we could really understand the history behind the Acropolis and the Parthenon. She gave us so much background information and did a great job explaining all the details. The lunch was mediocre at best - we get better Greek food here in the States. That part was a disappointment; hence, only a 4 star review. Overall, this tour is well worth the money. But I would recommend doing lunch on your own.
