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.

Fantastic for adults and history loving kids - Our private family tour was amazing. Jason was so knowledgeable, friendly and lovely with our kids (6 and 9 years old). It was so great to get such a comprehensive overview of the Acropolis and its history, all four of us loved it!

Perfect Acropolis tour with teenage daughters - The tour was perfect! Georgina adapted the information to hold the attention our teenage daughters and us. The tour was the perfect speed, Georgina was happy to take all the pictures of us we wanted, and gave us great recommendations on what to do for the rest of the day after we left her. Thank you Greeking.me!!

Private Acropolis Tour for Families by Greeking.me - We had a truly memorable tour of the Acropolis with our two girls, age 5 & 12, the older of whom is a mythology aficionado. Jason is a fabulous guide with a wealth of knowledge of the history, mythology and archaeology of the Acropolis and the ability to share it with visitors of any age. His passion for his subject, depth of knowledge and willingness to tell the girls stories or enter into geopolitical discussion with the adults made this a unique and unforgettable experience. We will never forget seeing the Parthenon and looking out over the birthplace of democracy. Extremely highly recommended.
