Our guide Olesya was excellent. Very knowledgeable and caring for our family. She knew all the shade places to stand and the best places for photos and all the key artifacts in the musuem.

First entry tour was amazing to see Acropolis relatively empty and see the guards leaving after the raising of the flag. Highly recommend.
Lynn_T | Oct 24 | Early Access Acropolis
We entered when the Acropolis opened but there is so few crowds even compared to later in the day. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. She turned the history into a story so we learned about and enjoyed our surroundings. Well worth it! She gave us plenty of freedom to take pics while the crowds were low as well :)Read more about - First Access Acropolis Tour, Beat the Crowds, Enjoy the Parthenon

Fantastic setting. We had such a fun evening with Katerina who shared great stories as we cooked delicious food. They served us dinner outdoors overlooking the Acropolis, so the setting was even better than we were expecting.

I crossed my fingers that this would be a good tour, but I wasn’t 100% sure what to expect. Well I’m happy to say it exceeded my expectations and was a WONDERFUL way to spend a morning getting to know Athens.

We enjoyed an excellent "highlights tour" through Athens Walking Tours in 2014. Based on that, we booked AGT40B (Acropolis & Parthenon... Extended Edition") for our return in 2024. The early start was worth the effort because we beat the crowds and heat. Niobe, our guide, was excellent. She was informative and easy to understand and walked at a manageable pace for the group of 15 to 20 people. She even knew a shady spot where we could get off our feet. It was particularly special to peer into the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, where we attended an outstanding concert the

Our guide was amazing, made a conscious effort to keep us cool. Stopping in the shade to talk and kept us engaged with relevant history/facts often relating it to where we were from.

Niobe was fantastic, so knowledgeable and took wonderful care of us. It was warm but we always stopped in the shade. So much information on the history of Greece & the Acropolis. We had a wonderful walk. Recommend booking early morning if possible.
