There are lots of tours so read carefully. We apparently chose one that did not include the museum. One the plus side our tour leader was exceptional.

Our Acropolis tour started at 9 for 2 hours. We were met on time by a really friendly tour guide. 20 minutes of the allotted time was wasted by our group using the toilets as there was a large queue, once we got going the tour was very informative, as you would expect there are lots of tours all doing the route so space at times was tricky to see the relevant historical areas being talked about. Our guide was choosing shady spots to stand which was a blessing. Everything was explained very well and was really interesting. She asked for our headphones back at 10.30 as the rest of the group was heading to the museum. I don’t really feel we got the full 2 hours, but we were allowed to stay there and explore on our own, which we did. Was it worth it? Yes I would say as otherwise you don’t understand the history behind this area.

Avoid this tour. We were late for 7 min. Because if a bus accident before us. And without informing, without communicating, we were informed the tour has departed. We were not given information about who the tour guide was. What was your guides name, and it a proper location. They charged us 550 Euro for 5 people and said that they are doing us a favour by giving the tickets for us to go and do our own tour and that we shoudl be grateful. There are plenty of others tours. These are not people who love their work. It's a money making scam.
Fantastic Tour
