Parthenon and Acropolis tour - Missy, our tour guide was exceptional! Missy was very knowledgeable and informative! She is also an archeologist and she was very detailed in her talks. Missy also gave interesting and personal anecdotes of the people in ancient Greece. Whenever possible she had her talks in the shade. In short, we couldn't have asked for anyone better to guide our tour!!

Great walking tour with learning and enjoying the Acropolis of Athens - We had a great walking tour to the Acropolis and museum with Petros our guide. The walk was a little difficult but he kept all of us safe. He was good in presenting the history of the site and museum

Standing Before History — Our Unforgettable Visit to the Acropolis & Parthenon - Visiting the Acropolis and standing in front of the Parthenon was an experience that left us speechless. Seeing it in person — the detail, the scale, the sense of history in every marble block — is something no photo can truly capture. The restoration work happening now is incredible; you can see the mix of original stone and new marble being carefully integrated, preserving this ancient masterpiece for generations to come. The informational signs all around helped us understand how the Parthenon evolved and how much effort is going into keeping it standing after thousands of years. Walking up the rocky path, surrounded by people from all over the world, you really feel the weight of history and the beauty of human achievement. It’s humbling and inspiring at the same time. We went on a cloudy afternoon, which actually gave it this dramatic, almost timeless feel — perfect for photos and just soaking it all in. Absolutely worth every step to the top.

Avoid in bad weather - Avoid this tour if the weather conditions are poor. Our tour was only one hour out of the promised 2 hours due to heavy rain. Otherwise the tour was very informative with a pleasant and knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed the information shared.
