Best Food Tour Ever

Absolutely the best food tour by Giannis (John) with Athens-Walk. Wasn't just a few bites here and there but a whole afternoon of great food and great conversation with Giannis. I can't remember a better food tour or a better person to show us around Platka (Athens). We really enjoyed this tour.

Best of Athens in a short time

Our guide, Elina, did a fantastic job navigating the Acropolis crowds, finding more private spots to stop and discuss the history and also pointing out where to take pictures from the best angles. She provided lots of insight and kept a great pace, never felt rushed. It’s the perfect tour for people passing through town and short on time. Excellent experience.

Awesome ancient site - awesome guide

Getting to the Acropolis looks challenging, but our marvellous guide Maria, provided many stops under the olive trees to tell stories in the shade making it totally manageable and informative. We loved her sense of humour, the way she integrated ancient history with modern life, and her gracious management of our group on a crowded day. Adding the museum was well worth it - highly recommended. We learnt so much - thank you !

Highly recommended

The tour exceeded all our expectations. Our guide, Tolis, was fantastic; he explained every detail, and the tour was so well organized that we arrived at all the attractions in perfect time. We went in a very comfortable car, but despite that, there's a lot of walking, which is necessary to see the best of Athens.

Great experience

This tour was great. The tour guide provided a lot of great information about the area and the history of the Monasteries. He actually lives in that area and provided a unique and genuine perspective for the tour. Lunch was at a local restaurant and was excellent. Was a long day as it is 4 hours from Athens, but the scenery was well worth the time spent in the bus.

A MAGICAL place with so much history

We did this tour during the day and it was amazing. Thankfully, the rain cleared up and it made the experience so much magical. It feels like like you are in a movie with the wind and the waves smashing against the rocks and the temple right at the edge. It honestly was great. Our tour guide Julia, had so much knowledge and provided a detailed explanation of the history of Athens. We were very happy with their services.

Fantastic Half Day tour with a local feel

A very informative day! Huge thanks to Victoria (our guide) and K (our driver) for being such an awesome team. Even though it’s not a specific family tour, we had a great experience. It was refreshing to leave Central Athens for lunch and see a more local side of life, even if the meal itself was fairly standard. Definitely worth it for the history and the hospitality!

4 Hours - Athens & Acropolis Highlights Private Tour

Aideen_J, Apr 2026

A perfect start to a perfect weekend in Athens

We took this private tour the first morning of our long weekend in Athens and I couldn't recommend it highly enough. As a family group of 7 it seemed like the best tour to do. Giannis our guide picked us up first thing in the morning and the Acropolis was our first stop. I strongly recommend that the Acropolis is visited as early as possible in the morning to avoid the crowds and (if applicable) the heat. The guide gave just enough information before he dropped us off and that left us free to meander in our own time around this truly remarkable archeological site. The rest of the the trip was a really fun tour round the other important sites and things to see. It was spot on for setting us up with a general feel and appreciation of the city and is perfect for anyone passing through or on a short stay. Giannis - our guide was super friendly, well informed and very flexible. 10/10

Ancient history is the headliner here, and Athens tours focus on archaeological treasures from the Acropolis in the city’s heart to outlying sites like the Temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounion, the Meteora monasteries, and the ruins of Delphi and Corinth. Visitors looking to experience modern Athens can nibble their way through the city on a food tour, walk or cycle in trendy districts like Plaka and Monastiraki with an insider guide, and experience the local nightlife on a bar crawl. The capital city is also the perfect jumping-off spot for day cruises and island hopping in the Saronic Gulf.
