Published on Dec, 2024

Highly recommend this guided tour. Seeing the Acropolis is great but learning some knowledge and history is priceless. Our guide Eva was very knowledgeable and friendly. The whole guided tour was roughly 2 hours 30 minutes.

Walk to the Top Parthenon

Published on Oct, 2024

Hubby and I visited early 8 am tour so glad we did cause it definitely got very crowded. Our tour guide was very informative and lead us threw, pointing our that the paths are slippery and uneven and to watch our steps. Not to bad a climb. Wear sneakers or walking shoes. A fantastic view at the top, unreal. I would recommend this company to others. Oh our guide had a gorgeous voice, beautiful to listen to.
