The entire experience was breathtaking, from the panoramic views to our expert guide Oleysa! Oleysa captivated us from the moment we met and departed for our adventure. She led us effortlessly around crowds, engaged with my children in a way that captured their attention and left them wanting more after 4 hours, and entertained us with a wealth of knowledge and information that left me with the desire to come back sooner than later! Our only regret is that we didn't get a picture with our guide Oleysa .. until next time!Carmen

I love starting a trip with a guided tour to provide context for the new city we're visiting, and I knew a guided tour of the Acropolis would be the perfect way to kick start our Greece itinerary. I also loved that the tour was for a 4:30pm start, as we flew into Athens that morning and wouldn't have been able to make the earlier (9amish) options. We'd already been planning to visit the Acropolis before/around sunset, so this was very ideal for us.
Discover Acropolis
Your adventure begins with an entry to the Acropolis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Led by a licensed guide, you'll ascend the slopes, passing the Theatre of Dionysus, one of the oldest theaters in the world. Reaching the summit, prepare to be awestruck by the architectural marvels – the Parthenon, a temple dedicated to Athena, the goddess of wisdom; the Propylaea, the grand entrance gate; and the Erechtheion, famed for its Caryatid maidens. Your expert guide will bring these monuments to life, sharing their fascinating stories and architectural significance.
Go deeper into ancient history
After soaking in the breathtaking views, descend the Acropolis and head to the awe-inspiring Acropolis Museum. Here, with your guide, explore the captivating displays of artifacts unearthed from the Acropolis itself. Marvel at everyday objects, and breathtaking sculptures, and learn how these pieces fit into the grand narrative of Athenian history. The museum's modern design, with glass floor sections revealing the archaeological site beneath, adds another layer of intrigue. Opt for the early morning tour to avoid the crowds and experience the Acropolis bathed in the soft glow of the morning sun.
