Highlighted reviews from other travelers
We had the best time on this tour with our guide Charoula. She was fun and very informative with the history of the area. The whole area of the Acropolis and Parthenon is a sight worth every minute of exploration. I would do it all over again too
Our guide, Eva, was fantastic. Her knowledge of the history put context to the ruins we visited and offered wonderful insight into the daily use of the grounds by the Athenian citizens.
