The tour was well...

Luc_L, Jun 2025
The tour was well organized, full of information, but not overwhelmingly so. The guide for the Acropolis Walking Tour was excellent and highly informative. Our guide for the highlights of Athens was insightful, friendly and fun. The entire excursion was wonderful.

Excellent walking tour with food

Great Walking Tour of Acropolis

David_B, May 2025
Beautiful tour but lots of stairs and walking….totally with it! Our tour guides were awesome! Athens is a beautiful city.

We had George as our tour...

Joni_L, May 2025
We had George as our tour guide, and he gave us a lot of history and answered our questions. There is a lot of fast walking, so be prepared. Had we been aware the tour was over after the Acropolis, we would have stayed there on our own, as we didn’t get a chance to look at the gift shop.

Great experience

Paula_B, Mar 2025
It's a lot of walking/hiking with stairs and rocks... we essentially climbed a mountain, of course, but our guides were patient, caring, and super informative! They did a great job managing our large (14) group.

Incredible tour

Lisa_S, Jul 2024
We learned so much on this tour. Teddy is extremely knowledgeable & funny. Our guide at the acropolis was amazing. I wouldn’t want to go to the acropolis without a guide. We had several other stops-1st modern day Olympic stadium, changing of the guards of the unknown soldier, presidential house, prime minister office, and a walk through plaka. Worth every penny. Air conditioned sprinter van.
