Traveler reviews
Fabulous tour of the Acropolis and Museum.
We had a great time on our guided tour of the Acropolis and Parthenon, Jason our guide was great fun and a great source of knowledge on the history and stories of Ancient Greece. We promised him we would have a word when we got home to get the Elgin Marbles back in their rightful place!! Was a great tour, highly recommended.

We had John as our tour guide and he was amazing! so much knowledge and a great personality đ the âAUSTRALIANSâ loved him especially the guy from the Gold Coast
Fun and Informative Tour!
Great walking tour and our tour guide, John, was amazing! It was very easy to find our meeting place and was a well paced tour (about 2 hours from start to finish at the top). Highly recommend if you're looking for an informative and fun activity! It can be very hot (I went in July), so recommend doing early morning or late afternoon.
An unforgettable day at the Acropolis with the brilliant Orestis - thank you!
The Acropolis and Parthenon guided tour was, without a doubt, the most enlightening and wonderful day I could have ever anticipated. I initially joined the tour carrying very limited knowledge of Greek history and mythology, but I left feeling deeply informed and incredibly inspired. A massive part of what made this experience so unforgettable was our tour guide, Orestis. He is the most engaging, passionate, and humorous gentleman you could ever hope to guide you through such an iconic historical site. Instead of just rattling off dry dates and facts, he brought the ancient world to life with brilliant storytelling and an infectious energy. As a British expat, I also thoroughly appreciated his wonderful sense of humorâparticularly during the jovial 'What the British stole' education! It was handled with such wit, charm, and good-natured teasing. If you are looking for a tour that balances profound historical insight with genuine entertainment, look no further. Thank you, Orestis, for a truly spectacular day... and one I am still talking about three weeks later!
Not to be missed.
Try for the 8:00 or 8:30 tour. Its a hot attraction. Very interesting. Dont skip the tour. Its worth the 2 hours.
