Per one customer who booked the Acropolis and Parthenon Guided Walking Tour, "Our Acropolis, Parthenon & Acropolis Museum guided tour with Annie was excellent! She was incredibly knowledgeable about all things Greek, very (amusingly) diplomatic in how she expressed some comments, very informative which was illustrated with interesting anecdotes, and she added great value & insights as we walked around the Acropolis & its buildings, and then the Acropolis Museum! I would highly recommend the full experience!"
