Acropolis Walking Tour

Our morning tour of the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum went flawlessly, even in the extreme July heat. Our guide, Michael G, was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and engaging. The best tour guide I have ever had! Would recommend this tour, and Michael G, to any visitor to Athens!

Acropolis and museum

Beautiful experience, thank you to our tour guide Voula. She was so kind, knowledgeable and funny. Although it was a very hot day we made sure to book the earliest tour 9am. Anytime Voula wanted to stop and explain certain things she made sure we stoped where there was enough shade and breeze for everyone. Definitely recommend this tour if you’re into history and Greek mythology . I would recommend if you book the 9am tour to show up 15-30mins early because there is a line outside the office to register and obtain your tour guide hearing devices. The tour guide hearing devices was a plus since there are multiple tours going on and you would want to hear your tour guide whether there are others speaking around you or if you’re in the back of your group.

Ruin, museum, and lunch combo

Building was hard to locate to meet up but then it was okay. The ruin is amazing to see. There is tons to see and our guide was very nice. We had a combo so we saw the ruin, the museum and had lunch. This was a great way to see it on a limited time frame.

Great guide, come prepared!

Our guide was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. We did the tour, the museum and the lunch. I recommend them all. Wear shoes with grips, the marble and granite is slippery in spots. I also recommend a hat or umbrella for shade, it is hot! Also, bring water and use the restroom before you go because the bathrooms inside are closed for renovations.
