What are people saying about Parthenon

Samantha_C, Jul 2026

Thank you so much for our...

Thank you so much for our tour, it was wonderful! The Parthenon is such a historic place and the information and spots our tour guide told and showed us was a perfect complement for it. You can tell he genuinely cared about the history he was speaking about and wanted us all to be involved in our experience. Whenever we come back in the future we will definitely go back for another tour with this company, they care greatly for their guests and want them to have an incredible experience!

Worth skipping breakfast to be among the first to enter

Dionysus was fabulous. Friendly and informative and quick to find a shady spot to talk about stuff but also helped us to be among the very first to ascend the steps of the acropolis to the Parthenon. Really great.

The acropolis

Incredible experience to see the acropolis and Parthenon and learn about Greek history and culture; guide was outstanding with delivering knowledge.

Beatrice_M, Jul 2026

Prepare to be amazed!

Our guide provided a lot of interesting historical information. This is definitely worth doing, but preparation is very important. Necessary items include sunblock, a hat, and very comfortable shoes. The Parthenon is incredibly impressive!

Excellent guide and tour!

Great small group walking guided tour of the Parthenon and Acropolis ruins. Our tour guide (I can’t remember her name!) was wonderful! Her English was super clear and her accent was easy to understand. She was aware of the heat and we would take breaks in the shade. She was really knowledgeable and my family and I really enjoyed the tour and the sites. I definitely learned a lot, more than I would have walking by myself. Thank you!!

Wonderful visit to...

Wonderful visit to Acropolis and Parthenon. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and positively contributed to an enjoyable experience. Yes, you can do this without the aid of a guide as there are several stations along the walk with assisted audio, however the tour guide was able to add another dimension by responding to questions with additional detail.
