Acropolis
MEETING OUR GUIDE. Your guide will be waiting at Makrygianni Street at the Acropolis Metro stop which is just around the corner from the Acropolis Main Entrance. Our tour visits the Acropolis either in the morning and afternoons 'Golden-Light' period, to both get ahead of the coach tours and heat of the day, but also to experience the lights effects on the Monuments of the Acropolis. The special light at this time heightens the honey-colored hues of the ancient temple's marble, as well as being the best light in which to experience some beautiful panoramic views over Athens.
Teatro Di Dioniso
Still in a good state of preservation, one of our first stops is the Ancient THEATER OF DIONYSUS. Built in the 4th & 5th century BC in a natural amphitheater o nthe slopes of the Acropolis it would have had an impressive capacity of 25000, it is considered the world's oldest. Amazing to think that many of the most famous Ancient Greek plays would have had their original premieres here!

The perfect way to see the sights of Athens. Our tour guide Anti, was such a wonderful storyteller. She brought the history and mythology to life for us and our 2 twelve year old girls. The last stop at the taverna was great too.

Ava was not only thorough but helpful with historical facts. We all enjoyed her humor and information. There were however a couple of times when it would’ve been nice to just breathe it all in without all the statistics and information. Truth be told she asked a number of times if she was talking too much…it just felt wrong to say so…

Way overpriced! Did not include acropolis tickets. Food not good. Guide very sweet and informative but should be half the price and should include cost for acropolis!

Our tour operator, Jacquard, was a font of information on the culture and history of the acropolis and Greece. It was a great experience. So glad we booked an expert archeologist for our tour.
