The Acropolis and Acropolis museum tour were both a highlight of our visit to Athens. Maria our guide did a good job of narrating, both historical and architectural features throughout the tour. It was a busy day, but she did a good job of keeping the group together and making sure everyone was staying up with the tour. The headsets worked very well, it was easy to understand everything she said. At one point we were given 15 minutes of free time to look around the acropolis, but I wish we had had a little more time to explore and read more of the historical markers that are placed around the Acropolis. It felt a little rushed. Overall, a good experience

This was a wonderful experience that I would definitely recommend. Fossa did an amazing job sharing the history of the Acropolis. We enjoyed the Acropolis and the museum was a nice addition as well. I would encourage that one chooses the early experience during the summer months.

Our guide Frosso was exceptional. She spoke beautifully about the history and culture surrounding the Acropolis. We learned more than we imagined and were so glad to have chosen this tour. I highly recommend the combination tour which gives you not only the experience but background about what it looks like now and what it looked like in the past.

Harula was a wonderful guide. Very engaging and informative. She took time at each major site on our way up to the top of the Acropolis to find a shady spot on a hot day to explain what we were looking at. She also looked out for safety with warnings about uneven pavement and slippery rocks. She was full of enthusiasm and information about each stop, giving time for short respite when needed. The second part of the tour was at the Museum. She was equally informative about what we were looking at and finished on the top floor where you are directly looking at the Parthenon. She explained about the square tiles that were displayed from around the Parthenon. She was excellent and we would recommend her.
