5.00Angela was our guide and was absolutely amazing. She explained all the history but kept it fun and interesting. It was my husband and I. We did a private tour and was totally worth it. We didn’t waste time at the wrong stuff , Angela guided us perfectly

5.00Our family (two adults, two teens and one grandparent) had a fantastic tour with Antigone. She met us at our hotel and walked us to the Acropolis. The tour was perfectly paced for our family. Antigone was knowledgeable and thoughtful. We would highly recommend this tour.

5.00My husband and I and our four children (ages 15, 13, 9 and 5) toured the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum with our guide, Nota. We can’t imagine touring these places without her expertise. Her knowledge base was phenomenal and her method of engaging each of our kids was impressive. For example, she had my kids draw a depiction of the battle for Athens between Athena and Poseidon as they imagined it and then we compared it to the actual depiction in the museum. My kids loved that. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, but more impressively my kids remarked how much they enjoyed it too.
EXCELLENT!!!

5.00Athens insiders were excellent with us. Very organized, always ready to meet our requests. Vassilis was great! A super-intelligent boy who, in addition to knowing a lot about the history of Greece, is seen in love with Athenas and her work.

5.00Our Family of 4 ( 2 girls 11 and 9) took three tours from Athens Insiders in June 2018 , and we are very happy with our decision . Mariliza was very professional and quick to answer all our queries and set up all the tours . All the tours were kid friendly , kept their attention and even fostered their history inquisitiveness. All the guides were wonderful , special shout-out to Kostos , Nancy ,Dimosthenis and Christina . Thanks and we hope to be back to explore more next time .

5.00Nota absolutely made our time in Athens. Met us at our Air-BnB and walked up to to the Acropolis. She struck the perfect balance of archeologist/teacher/guide for our 8,10,12, and 40 year kids. Brought the temples at the Acropolis back to life and accompanied us down to the museum. Great day invested in the history of Athens. Highly recommended!

5.00visit the acropolis and the acropolis museum with Petros. Our 2 children (14 and 10 years) loved this visit. Petros who speaks a practically perfect French has passed his passion for the region to our 2 pre-teens. The anecdotes are many and varied. With this visit, our children left with some keys that they used for the rest of the stay. Adults also enjoyed this visit: playful, rhythmic as we love them.
This was a wonderful tour, I'd...
