A walking tour of Acropolis and the museum

Our guide Afroditi had an incredible indepth knowledge of the subject and was able to bring to life the amazing history of Athens and the Acropolis. Her English was faultless and she had a real passion for the history. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens.

Great guided visit

Perfect schedule for visiting the museum during summer and avoiding the heat outside. Our guide was very kind and gave us the background to understand the museum, the Acropolis and what we would see later in the visit to Parthenon. Her knowledge and passion for history made the visit very interesting and pleasant.

Worth it!

So much more enriching than just wandering ourselves. Our guide, Marizia, was very gracious and eager to share her country’s history.
