Great Family Experience - Our tour with Eva was fantastic. Eva is an archaeologist by trade and taught us so much about the Acropolis and Greek history and mythology.

Brilliant way to enjoy a cultural wonder - would do this again for sure. - Our wonderful guide Georgina was brilliant - we had a mixed group of seniors and adolescents and she frames the tour perfectly. She also helped me sort out a ticket issue when we arrived - couldn't have been a better experienced - we all really enjoyed it.

Excellent tour - really engaging for the whole family. - Georgina was excellent: really engaging directly with our two kids (aged 13 and 10) about the mythology and historical elements of visiting the Acropolis - not boring them with architectural trivia (which seemed to be the focus of a lot of the signs and other group tours I overheard). Very good communication before and after the tour and would highly recommend using greeking.me if you're heading to Athens.

Private family tour of the Acropolis with Anna - Our tour with the lovely Anna was fantastic. Our children, 8 and 11, were kept very entertained and informed throughout the tour. Anna was lovely, fun and engaging, though not at all patronising; she pitched everything at the perfect level.
We all would highly recommend Anna. Thanks so much to her.

Family tour of the Acropolis, a must with kids. - We had an amazing tour guide Elizabeth who was amazing and engaging for our 4 busy kids ( aged 7 - 9 ). They loved the stories, mythology, Greek words and having a chance to act out their favourite characters whilst learning along the way!
Thank you, great day had by all

Educational (and fun!) experience - Anastasia was a great tour guide. She pulled in the kids' interest with fun mythical stories about the greek gods and was also able to answer my husband's architectural questions (his degree is in architecture). She had a nice binder with her and was able to enhance communications with visuals, which was helpful. This was my 3rd time visiting the acropolis, and I learned considerably more about all the buildings and the area than I did on previous visits.

Fantastic Acropolis tour for families. - The company was extremely helpful in sorting the arrangements of where to meet and organisation of the tour as we had a member at short notice who needed wheelchair access. Our guide Theadora was great, very knowledgeable, explained things clearly and also accommodated the wheelchair access. Fortunately the lift was working on the day so we didn't have to carry the wheel chair up!
We were a family of 5 who had a fantastic time.

Acropolis with kids! - Anastasia took us on a guided tour of the Acropolis and did a great job at engaging my children (8 & 5). She told them lots of stories about the ancient Gods and had pictures to show them too. It was very busy and hot even at 8am but she made every effort to find shade for us to have a story and took some great family pics for us!

Great experience - We had a wonderful experience! Our guide was very engaging and patient with our children. She provided interesting information that we would not have learned if we tried to tour by ourselves. The private tour was worth it for us to tailor to our family’s needs.
