I looked up the company that was providing this tour to Viator and it said that they were archeologists.... The are NOT. The guide had very basic knowledge of the site. We would have been better with an audio guide. She finished early and gave us 20 minutes to roam the site at the top so the total information that was provided was very limited.
Awesome and Informative!

Long walk and horrendous crowds in morning in mid April off season. Although 21°C, peak season Jun July Aug are worst crowds with min one to two hour waits in up to 45°C temps. Bought inclusive no lineup tickets but Acropolis entry fast at 9am but Acropolis Museum 1 hour lineup at 1pm in sun even with prepaid 'beat the lineup' lineup tickets!! Museum excellent displays and English subtitles at displays. Amazing statues of all types and special zoned area for special head and mini sculptures. Dont forget to go to lower basement building for excavated ancient Greek city. Keep your ticket for re-admission. Amazing tour and history guide for 7 hours. Lots of single lane up and down walking and many guests were pushing & talking loud. Overpriced restaurant in building with a Cappacino costing min 6€ whereas rest of Athens usually 1.5 to 5 €. Bring your lunch. Very slippery marble when near Parthenon. Much of area under scaffolding renovation. Guide was history major and answered all questions and spoke excellent English for duration.
Great Tour, recommend getting the museum tickets and is family friendly

The Acropolis tour was amazing, our tour guide Liza was lovely. I would recommend this tour for people who love walking and history. It was very interesting and our tour guide made it easy to understand for both children and adults; this tour is definitely family friendly. The museum was really interesting. Our guide made it so we could imagine what the Acropolis would actually be like in the ancient Greek times.
