Our tour guide Sophia was AMAZING. Our small group tour was only our family. She was very knowledgeable about the Acropolis, history of Greece, and language/word meaning. She was personable and knew all the shady spots to stop and talk. Also a great photographer...so we got awesome pictures. A must do in Athens!

Doing it in the morning is the best idea. Definitely need good walking shoes. Amazing agent architecture, coffee care for fair amount of people. This is still a semi private tour, but the tour guide had to juggle around other two groups as well. Just the way it is July in Athens!

    This was a very interesting and memorable tour. Sophia was our guide and she did a great job. She was most informative, put us in the best positions to get good pictures, and took advantage of the shady spots which resulted in a pleasant experience for our small group.

    Lucas was an amazing guide! Not only is he educated on the history of all things related to Athens & Greece, but he is also a teacher which showed in the way he interacted with our teen and preteen. We had a great morning learning and exploring with him. I highly recommend this tour and Lucas!

    I joined this tour on my own, and luckily I was the only participant, which allowed me to hear all of the history in great detail. The guide was excellent, passionate, friendly, and very professional. I highly recommend it!

    Luca the best

    I have taken many tours with Viator, but this was one of the best, thanks to Luca, a knowledgeable and friendly guide who also engaged the children who were present. Thanks Luca

    Great for children as well

    Rosaria_F, Jun 2026
    The experience was fantastic. Luca, the guide, explained the history, traditions, and curiosities of the place while also entertaining my son, the youngest in the group! It is an experience I would do again and feel confident recommending!

    The meeting point is clear. The provided water bottle is very appreciated. The suggestion to use the restroom before starting is wise, especially when traveling with children.
