What are people saying about Parthenon

Andrew_J, Aug 2026

A great afternoon exploring the Acropolis and Parthenon

An amazing introduction and exploration of the Parthenon and the Acropolis. Ava's enthusiasm and knowledge made the huge crowds disappear. She was also great at finding perfect camera spots and places in the shade on a hot afternoon. Very high recommendation!

Katalin_W, Aug 2026

Definitely worth going with a guide!

Our guide, Anna, was fantastic, informative, funny and kind. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned so much. It was very hot even though we started at 8 am, but she always did her best to stop in the shade to talk. We were particularly fascinated by all the in depth information she gave us about the Parthenon and its design and construction.

Amazing tour, our guide Lydia is exceptional!

The highlight of our Greece trip is probably this Acropolis tour that includes the museum visit. The tour started promptly and our guide Lydia is amazing. She is very knowledgeable, knows the best spot to take pictures, remembers all the historical information, had amazing situational awareness, being cautious about the kids on tour and ensuring safety of her guests proactively reminding us to hydrate and watch our steps. My young kids enjoyed the museum tour because of Lydia.
