Acropolis and Parthenon and museum

David_L, Aug 2025
This tour was awesome and we enjoyed it very much. Our tour guide “Artemis” was very knowledgeable and gave us as much information as we wanted and at our pace.

Athens tour

EMILY_S, May 2024
Going up to the Acropolis was the highlight. We never thought we could make it up. But the experience of being on top and seeing all of Athens was remarkable.

Our driver/guide Nicholas was amazing

Sarah_D, Dec 2023
Nicholas was absolutely amazing. He went above and beyond in so many ways. We started the day with Greek Christmas cookies, he took drone photos of us at Mount Lycabettus and made the day very special in so many ways. Unfortunately the day of our tour there was a surprise strike of the guards at the Acropolis and the Agora so they were not open, so Nicholas very kindly added a trip to the Temple of Poseidon onto our itinerary which was a real treat. We could not rate Nicholas more highly and would thoroughly recommend him to anyone planning a trip to Athens.

Worth it

Jane_J, Jan 2023
Saw all the highlights on Athens Greece with no stress about how to get there. Niklas was our driver and tour guide. He did a fantastic job explaining all the sites we visited and also took the time to make recommendations for places to eat for the duration of our stay.

Thank you so much for your review. Looking forward to seeing you again in Greece!!!
