What are people saying about Athens

jeanau, Aug 2026

Acropolis: A Must See

Our guide, Vicki, was very knowledgeable and passionate about the Acropolis. She presented information that piqued our interest. We slowly made our way up the South slope where we had great views of Athens below. She told us about the hospital, outdoor arena where plays were staged and the concert arena that until very recently hosted many well known artists. The edifices and art work of ancient sites are always astounding, and the Acropolis is no less remarkable. This is a site not to be missed. We had visited the Acropolis Museum at the base of the Acropolis. Don’t miss this valuable resource that showcases the art and daily living household objects created by ancient people of the BC era. Please be aware that the walk up to the top of the Acropolis is strenuous and not really for those who must use mobility aids (canes) as the surfaces are uneven, rocky and unstable in many places. You should wear comfortable shoes with traction soles.

Great intro to Athens!!

This was a wonderful introduction to Athens and our guide Julia was a delight! She has a wealth of knowledge and a bubbly personality. There is quite a bit of walking involved but we finished with a delicious dinner at a family-owned restaurant. We would highly recommend this tour and guide.

Jose_F, Aug 2026

Don’t go without a guide!

Andrea was amazing!! Very knowledgeable and personable. She made sure she was early to get us all a great spot in line. As well as we got all the way to the top for amazing pictures before the crowd was even close to us. We were one of the first 30-40 people into the Acropolis and then she explained everything afterwards just to make sure we had great pictures. There was so much knowledge she had that we would have never even thought to look at things more in depth. 10/10 I would always tell others to go with a guide instead of by yourself.

Delphi Experience With Tickets, Official Guide and Hotel pick up

Ancient Delphi Tour from Athens

★★★★★ We took this trip to Delphi yesterday and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Our driver contacted us the night before to confirm pickup, then arrived right on time at our hotel entrance the next morning — very convenient. The coach ride from Athens to Delphi was comfortable, making the long drive easy to enjoy. Our guide was knowledgeable and well-organized, adding great context and detail throughout the tour. The archaeological site itself is beautifully preserved — honestly one of the best-restored ancient sites we've visited. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens who wants to see Delphi without the hassle of arranging transport themselves.

Great tour! I was on the fence about purchasing because I was open to doing this solo but I’m so glad I did! The guide was incredible and I learned so much.

This tour was so...

This tour was so wonderful with Pavlina as our guide. We tasted so much delicious food and learned a lot about the area and the history of the food. We also walked through a few different districts. We booked this tour while in port on a cruise, it was easy to get a taxi to and from port and enjoy this unique experience!

Athens Street Food Walk

Great introduction to Athens

Giota was a fun and engaging tour guide and the food we had was so good! We left full so definitely come hungry. She was easy to find at the meeting point and gave us enough time to sit and enjoy the food at easy stop. I loved that she talked about the history of Athens and used food to highlight the many cultural influences and tell a story.

Acropolis Museum Guided Tour

Frances_N, Jun 2026

A Must-See Tour when in Athens

This 1 1/2 hour tour is perfect amount of time for the museum. Our Guide Deppy was so knowledgeable about everything in the museum and the Ancient Greek times. She knew a lot about the Acropolis, the different statues and greek gods. Felt like I was back in high school (LOL) Amazing how they could build these statues and Parthenon back 3000 years ago. Definitely worth seeing. Not a lot of walking so a moderate activity.
