Highlighted reviews from other travelers
The tour started promptly at 9.30, the guide Effy is quite knowledgeable and energetic. Her narrative mixed with jokes made the walk less strenuous. It's a bit tiring at the end of the tour,but it's work the exercise
Kimon was a terrific guide. Passionate about the subject matter and very attentive to the pace of the tour to ensure we covered all of the spots to sight-see in the allotted time. Coupling the museum tour to follow after visiting the Acropolis was great because there was so much context to the museum exhibits and flow after the walking tour. Highly recommend!!!
