- travelablevacations0 contributionsOur favorite tour of the trip!We had a wonderful time learning about the history of Greece, Athens, and the Acropolis with our wonderful guide Eva (I hope I spelled that right!). She was knowledgeable and entertaining, and really made us feel at home in her city. We had one traveller with mobility problems, and she was very sensitive to that in helping us all get to the top. We all agreed that it was our favorite experience on the trip so far, and we thank Eva for that! Definitely go at sunset if you don't want to get up early. We took many beautiful pictures and even got to see them remove the flag at the end of the day. All in all, a wonderful time. Thank you Eva!Written December 5, 2024

- amybC384HP0 contributionsDidn’t get to see enough - wonder if audio tour would have been betterKaterina gave a comprehensive history lesson but we didn’t stop & look at all the displays.

- Q6468PNchristineb0 contributionsExpert private tour dimitra_touristguideHad a wonderful tour of Acropolis Museum with dimitra_touristguide That is her Instagram account if you want to get in touch. She is an archeologist and so knowledgeable, answered all of my questions patiently, and expounded upon them when she could. She was able to float around a very busy museum with me, when I was in a motorized wheel chair without any trouble. Such a wonderful tour and expert tour guide!Written October 15, 2024
- BonnieBree0 contributionsGlorious introduction to the ParthenonKelly was our guide. She took us through the museum and gave us an overview of the history, art and culture of the Parthenon. We loved learning about the Greek deities and how they influenced the Athenians' lives. The museum is not to be missed. Then she led us on a tour of the Parthenon. She expertly led us through the crowds and pointed out the best photo spots. We learned so much in a short period of time. Wish I could give this tour 10 stars!Written October 14, 2024
- F2347OPhollyw0 contributionsLoved Our Tour and Guide!Lisa was an amazing tour guide. We will definitely share her info with friends and family. We traveled with our 3 children (ages 13, 11, and 8). Lisa was great with the kids and never skipped a beat when they got antsy. She was very personable and knowledgeable. She made the Acropolis one of my most favorite activities in Athens. The museum part was equally amazing. She described everything in detail and it made so much sense after just seeing the Acropolis. Definitely worth it!Written October 13, 2024
