Acropolis late afternoon - Amazing to see beautiful ancient buildings, and much less crowded than midday. Enjoyed hearing the guide's info about the Parthenon and other structures.

Pleasant and warm - Very pleasant city, noisy in the city center and very lively in the pedestrian streets, especially in the evening when the cool sets in.

Incredible Acropolis and Museum Tour - Alex, our tour guide, was so knowledgeable. We were in Greece for almost 2 weeks, this was my favorite guided tour from the whole trip. It was our family, so all adults but various ages (oldest was 69, youngest was 32). Only 1 person had been to Athens before, so we learned a lot about the history and Alex had so much interesting information to share. I had coordinated the group tour for Saturday afternoon, as several folks in our group arrived to Athens on Saturday. So for some folks, it was the end of a very long day but had agreed it would be best to stay busy for a bit. When we first started, it was sunny and hot. Two of the folks with me kinda gave me a glance and were like "we'll see if we make it the whole time, this seems like it will be long" but our group had such an incredible time no wanted to leave early, everyone stayed and enjoyed ourselves for the entire 4 hours. Alex knew all the rights spots to stop in the shade, where to get good photos. He helped our group get great photos. The museum was incredible and Alex made sure that we didn't miss any of the important information, saw all the antiquities / statues / etc. Thank you!!
