The tour and the tour guide where fantastic. From the whispers they give you at the very start so you can always hear what the tour guide is saying to the polite manner and informative little value add comments and commentary you receive along the way. Fantastic!! If you are doing the morning tour, the office is manic so just be mindful to jump on the right tour

The guide was very knowledgable and passionate, he kept it engaging and funny. We were impressed by how much he was able to tell us without any notes and he could answer any question! We went to the Acropolis museum shortly after and followed a museum tour, which was much less engaging and overlapping stories had less information. Thank you for a brilliant tour!

Diving into the History of the Acropolis

Meet your tour guide near the Acropolis of Athens early in the morning. Avoid the heat of the day along with the crowds at the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Admire the Dionysus Sanctuary and Dionysus Theater as you reach the south slope of the Acropolis. As you start walking up the hill with your group (22 people or less), you'll see historical monuments of the area. The ancient citadel contains several temples dedicated to Greek gods. You'll visit the Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Pedestal of Agrippa. Your English-speaking guide will regale intriguing stories about these white marble structures. A visit to the Acropolis is incomplete without admiring the Parthenon. It is the most lavish temple built by the ancient Greeks for Goddess Athena, built in the 5th century.

Getting a Taste of Athenian Culture

The walking tour will continue down the hill, from where you'll see a perfect view of the landmarks in current-day Athens - Ancient Agora and the National Observatory of Athens. You'll soon enter the Plaka district of the city. Stroll through Anafiotika, a scenic neighborhood that will give you a glimpse into the culture of Athens. The little alleys are lined with whitewashed mansions, colorful shutters, and more. Your guide will ensure you don't miss out on visiting the hidden gems here, unknown to many. You'll also walk past the Bathhouse of the Winds, an ancient public bath. Finally, you'll reach Monastiraki Square, one of the oldest surviving squares in the city. From here, you can head to the flea market and buy souvenirs for this memorable 3-hour tour.
