The tour of the Acropolis was mixed. It was great to skip the very long lines. Hard to keep up with our tour guide. He almost lost a family in our group. We spent a lot of time at other areas of the Acropolis and he talked a lot, but never really talked about the Parthenon itself and there was no time to take pictures at the Parthenon at all. We spent a lot of time at the temple of Athena and the spot overlooking the city. But I was looking forward to the opportunity for some family photos in front of the Parthenon and had to sneak away to get some of those. Never got any in front of it because at the time I thought we'd finally get the chance, he led us back down. It was frustrating and disappointing. Felt like we did everything BUT the Parthenon on the Acropolis. The rest of the tour was okay. Just a quick five minute stop at the Olympic stadium. And then a quick walk through Plaka which was neat to see. Overall, if I did it over again, I would spend more time at the Acropolis and skip the rest of the tour of the city.
