The tour itself was great. Loved the guide. The biggest issue was I was redirected 3 times at the starting point and it was utter kaos. No signs for direction and everyone working there telling us a different thing. Made us feel quite uneasy in a foreign country and no direction.

Guide was very knowledgeable and the pace of the tour was just right. Couple of minor negatives, although we had booked the 8:15 start and were told to arrive 15 minutes early the actual tour did not start from the office until after 8:45. So a lot of hanging about waiting. The other slight negative was that the tour guide had to queue for the museum tickets rather than them being available on arrival. But think it is well worth having the benefit of someone who is both passionate and knowledgeable rather than maybe missing some of the more interesting aspects of the sites.

We had a great morning, Yannis our guide was very informative. He gave us stops on the way up the acropolis so it wasn't too exhausting, explaining the different temples.

Your experience

Discover Acropolis

Your adventure begins with a skip-the-line 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.
