Great Acropolis Guided Tour!

5.00Excellent tour, easy meet up at the Acropolis Metro entrance, short walk to Acropolis gates & we skipped the queues which was handy! Nikos was a superb guide, tailored his info to my interests & was able to answer all my questions. Well-paced walk with plenty of time to rest & hydrate in the shade & great photo opportunities. Highly recommended especially if time poor and/or travelling solo as I got so much out of the tour, far more than I would have if doing it on my own. Five stars!
Super!

5.00Amazing !! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. Yes you can walk around on your own but hearing the history adds so much more value I highly reccomend this. It was not overly expensive and if this is a once in a lifetime trip it’s worth every penny.
Great guide
