Acropolis, Parthenon and Ancient Agora Guided Tour with entrances

Anne_G, Apr 2026

Not even rain and wind could damped great tour this !

It was a cold and rainy day, but that didn’t stop Dorina from giving us a wonderful tour. She was so kind and patient for the people in the group that we’re moving slowly because of the slippery steep conditions. One of the visitors from another group fell down and her guide left her, but Dorina made sure that she was safe and tried to find the guide. I don’t know what the woman would’ve done without Dorina. We covered everything there was to know about the acropolis and Parthenon. I feel like I know everything there is to know about that section of Athens because Donna was so smart and interesting. Thank you, Dorina for everything you did to make our visit special!

Athens Electric Bike Tour

Great George

George the Great was wonderful. We booked a small group tour but it was just me and my fiancé and George was wonderful to spend time with, great guide, informative, charming and kind. Pedal assisted bicycles are the only way to tour even if you think you are a strong cyclist.

Athens Street Food Walk

Jo_R, Apr 2026

Eating our way through Athens :-)

We really enjoyed this experience! The places we visited felt very authentic and not "tourists traps" We are foodies and we already had some knowledge of Greek food but we did discover new flavors and stories behind the different dishes we tried. Thank you to Iota (I think that's how her name is written) for adjusting the pace to accommodate for some members of our group that had relatively limited mobility. Really recommend this tour. The tour is very good value for money

Delphi English Day Trip from Athens with Official Guide

Christian_V, Apr 2026

Well organized and worth it

The trip was very well organized. Fryni, our guide, was professional and kind and she gave us information about Greek culture through out the whole journey to Delphi. The driver was very pleasant too. Delphi's temple and museum are worth visiting for their historical, cultural and spiritual importance. The trip there is a bit long but doable. I can recommend.

Athens Evening Food Tour

Laura_B, Apr 2026

Not your Mom’s Gyros!

This very special evening included walking through multiple Athens food neighborhoods sampling Greek food and enjoying some different wines, grappa, and ouzo. Most of the foods were things I’d never heard of - all were delicious! Yannis is a real treasure of a guide! He shared so much history along with the incredible food.

Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings

Snezhana_Z, Apr 2026

The best food tour in probably all of Europe!

It is the best food tour we have ever been on! Katerina, our guide, was awesome! And the food-well, it was a great experience! We have tried so many things, every 5-10 min we had a stop to try new things! And then we had a lunch-and it was the first time on a food tour when we almost wanted the food to stop coming!!! They served and served different dishes, and then they would serve even more! And then after that there were more tastings! And another sit down meal with coffee and dessert! I honestly cannot recommend this tour enough! Please book it- you won't regret it!

We have Angelos and Demos...

We have Angelos and Demos for the two different parts of our tour. Both were amazing! Angelos did the bike part and handled our four teenage boys with grace! And Demos took extra time at the end of the tour to have a discussion with our oldest and was so kind to him. Absolutely both wonderful and answered our every question!

Athens: Acropolis, Parthenon Guided Walking Tour

Victor_M, Mar 2026

We had an incredible...

We had an incredible experience on our Athens walking tour with an archaeologist—our guide, Peter, was truly outstanding. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Having someone with such deep knowledge and passion for history made everything come to life in a way that no guidebook ever could. Peter explained the historical context, myths, and significance of each site with clarity and enthusiasm, making it engaging for both adults and kids in our group. We especially appreciated how he connected ancient history to what we were seeing in front of us, helping us better understand the importance of each landmark. The pace of the tour was perfect, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and take in the surroundings without feeling rushed. Peter was also very friendly, patient, and attentive to our group’s needs. If you’re visiting Athens, we highly recommend booking a walking tour with an archaeologist—having a guide like Peter adds so much depth and meaning to the experience and makes the history unforgettable!

Athens & Acropolis Highlights: Greek Mythology Small-Group Tour

Nir_W, Mar 2026

Engaging and Insightful Acropolis Tour

We took a two-hour walking tour in Athens with our guide, Alexandros Aslanidis, and it was excellent. The tour was very interesting. Alexandros was extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable, presenting the information in an engaging and accessible way. Although the tour focused on the Acropolis, it also provided a great understanding of the broader history of Greece. Highly recommended.

Jeremiah_S, Feb 2026

Love this tour

The tour guide was amazing. She was given facts answering questions from the start and very excited about giving information about the tour. My phone died and she offered to take some pictures and send them to me. Forgot to bring an umbrella or a poncho. She shared her umbrella with me and when in very in depth of every point this to our group. everyone got this little box that was connected to her microphone, so everybody could hear without being right upon our.

Athens Authentic Greek Food Walking Tour (Small Group)

Melanie_S, Nov 2025

Exceptional Tour

We would highly recommend this tour. What we thought was to be a tour only about food was actually a Greek history/food tour. Andreas did a great job of providing samples of local foods. He also provided the background of each food and where the influence came from for the particular dishes we ate. Prepare to come hungry, we had far more food than we could possibly eat. Despite a torrential downpour, Andreas still made the best of the tour. Andreas kept it interesting throughout the tour. He is full of knowledge. It was a wonderful experience.
