Well organized with clear requirements and well managed check-in. We arrived early and waited less than 15 minutes before our tour began early. Lydia was our guide and she was brilliant in her care and knowledge. She answered questions with ease and was clearly well trained in her field. The communication devices worked really well and made the experience a truly pleasant experience. This is highly recommended

We booked a tour to enjoy the expertise of a tour guide. Julia exceeded expectations. As an archeologist, she could explain the buildings, artifacts, and history, with enthusiasm and stories that entertained, and informed. I highly recommend this tour. Also the evening time was cooler, and allowed us to linger, taking pictures during the sunset.

Recommend a tour for the information you receive during the walk. A lot more to the visit besides the Acropolis.
