Amazing Athens
The Acropolis/Parthenon tour is amazing but fairly strenuous. Well worth the effort. Our driver/guide was very informative and helpful.

This is a well fashioned tour. These people know what they’re doing. Highly recommended.
Both my wife and I said touring the Acropolis/Parthenon was so much more interesting and easier with a guide, especially with the excellent, knowledgeable Aigli! She fashioned the tour to avoid the most crowded areas and times and gave us expert insight to what we were seeing. We did not dawdle as there was much to see. Comfortable shoes are a must and the supplied audio assistance ear phones helped immensely. There were opportunities for breaks.

Unmissable tour!
It was a great tour.. absolutely unmissable. We were a mixed group of 2 teens and 4 48+ not very fit adults. Had read about the climb being quite hard so was a bit apprehensive. But our walk was evenly paced with lots of pauses so didn't have any issue in climbing upto Parthenon. Also, Victor is a very engaging guide.. made the tour interesting and informative for all of us.

This is the Only way to see the Acropolis!!
Our guide was Sophia and she was fabulous!! Extremely knowledgeable and definitely knew the places to hit at the right times. Going early was the way to go and definitely a cheat code. We got to the top early before the crowd and when we were going back down the horde of people were headed up. Having the guide was the way to go, providing the history, context, and so much information. Can’t imagine going to see the Acropolis and Parthenon without it.

An excellent experience with Viator in Athens
Viator's office on-site was flexible and accommodating. The audio system worked well. Our guide Fay was excellent. She was knowledgeable and well-prepared. We enjoyed especially her retelling of the myths which provide the backstory to the history of the Acropolis and the adjacent temples on the way up. Fay also paid attention to the safety of her group--where to watch out for slippery stones and so on. We learned a lot from her and enjoyed her personality as well.

Let Orestis show you the Acropolis! You won’t be disappointed
Orestis was the Best guide I have ever had! So knowledgeable, kept safety first and very very good sense of humor! His vast knowledge of Greek history and the Acropolis transported me back in time and I felt like I was living it! He is truly an asset to you. The ladies at your office were also pleasant and efficient!

Only way to see acropolis!
Checking was easy and well organized. Amazing guide!!!!! He was so Knowledgeable and funny and genuinely concerned for everyone’s safety. Cause the trek up to top is rough and slippery.
The “hot pink” group started as strangers and left as acquaintances because the guide took care to learn about us and “customize” the experience. Great 4 hours spent.

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.

Rainy acropolis is still worth it
Dora was a great guide. Very knowledgeable about the acropolis and its history. Even with the rain, puddles, and crowds she remained patient with us and had our safety as her top priority.

Enjoyed!
"K" on the Ebike tour was great, knowledgeable and really ensured our safety. Was concerned about a tour in the city but was pleasantly surprised how a lot of it was on pedestrian paths. Ana on the Acropolis tour was very fun and also quite knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our day!

Yota was an excellent,...
Yota was an excellent, knowledgeable guide. Highly recommend booking the earliest entry possible to avoid long lines and crowds. We entered the museum with the group but wandered the exhibits on our own including the excavation area.

The Parthenon is most often visited on half- or full-day city tours of ancient Athens.
Parthenon tours involve a lot of walking on uneven and often slippery (well-worn stone) surfaces; wear comfortable shoes with good grip.
Come prepared for the weather, as the Parthenon is an indoor/outdoor experience.
A wheelchair lift is available to the top of the Acropolis.
