Private family acropolis tour

christina_b, Jun 2024

Our private family tour of the acropolis and acropolis museum was excellent thanks to our tour guide Georgina. She was such a friendly and warm person especially towards the children and had a wealth of knowledge of Greek history. Her information and stories made our experience so much more interesting and kept the children more engaged . We thank her and recommend her and this tour to any one that is considering booking. Thanks Georgina and Viator!
