A great way to see the Acropolis and much better for being in a small group as the site is very busy and it was easy to hear and navigate the crowds. The guide was knowledgeable and was able to keep the children / teens in the group engaged as well as the adults even in the July heat! The 5 pm tour was great to avoid the heat of the day and this tour takes in all the main parts of the Acropolis without being too long. Would recommend.
