Acropolis was great but...

5.00Acropolis was the highlight but the city tour and museum with it are great also. Bring water, very hot usually. Acropolis gets very crowded so early tours are best. Excellent experience.
It felt rushed

3.00It’s rushed. With hindsight, as we were travelling off season, we could have done the tour without a guide (we did not need to skip the line) and spent more time in the museum. But we did receive quite a lot of useful information from our guide.
Phenomenal tour guide

3.00Our tour guide was phenomenal! I give her all the credit for making the tour enjoyable. The company needs to upgrade headsets/equipment as many had constant static. Also they changed the hotel location and I didn’t realize until I checked the messages a few minutes before the busses were supposed to load. Luckily it was a couple blocks away.
Exceptional Excursion prior to our Greek Island Cruise.

5.00Very nice tour of the Acropolis’s museum and the actual site! We had plenty of time to look at everything. Very knowledgeable guide and she got us back to the hotel or if we wanted could roam the Plaka on our own and take taxi. Saw orig Olympic stadium!
