5.00Thank you to Jessica for the excellent tour. A perfect mixture of interesting explanations about this impressive place with images on the tablet of how it once looked, mythological stories, regional and historical context from the rich history to the present, ... very smoothly and animatedly brought by this sympathetic expert archaeologist. The subsequent visit to the beautiful Acropolis Museum is also a must do. Absolutely recommended!
Great Acropolis tour in a small group

5.00Jessica is a great and super friendly guide. She guided the three of us (family with 14 year old daughter) with only one other family first through the Acropolis and then through the museum. As an archaeologist, she was able to explain many things to us and carry us away with her enthusiasm for ancient Greece. She always made sure that we could stand in the shade during her explanations, which was very helpful in the heat. Anytime again, highly recommended!
Very professional yet nice informal tour.

Excellent and very entertaining private tour with Maria (PhD in Archiology) -made a difference

5.00We booked a private guide -what we always go to get the most out of a sightseeing tour -and it was fantastic. Our guide, Maria, born and raised in Athens told us not only historic facts on history, architecture, making-of-the-temples, etc…. but also interesting stories around the many goddesses and their relations to each other. We learned about links current political and European issues and it was extremely interesting. The 4 hours passed by too fast…….highly recommendable!
Great morning in Athens

5.00It was a super interesting tour, well organized and not boring or long-winded. Highly recommended for those who like to experience some culture but don't want to spend all day reading every sign in a museum.

5.00Very fascinating and educational tour of the acropolis with Jessica. She talks passionately about the history and the buildings and explains it with photos on her iPad. Then we visited the museum with her and here too she spoke very passionately. Recommended!
