Our tour guide Nicos was excellent. He gave great historical perspective on all the temples, statues, columns and gates in the Acropolis.

It ended up just being my group on the tour - so we got a private tour! Our tour guide was awesome! He answered most of my questions before I even had time to ask. He did a great job leading us through and giving us lots of information without it feeling rushed. Would highly recommend!

It was a nice small group, so our guide was able to easily cater to our needs, he was very informative and friendly. I would highly recommend this tour. Having a guide who knew the ins and outs and booking skip the line tickets in advance made my first visit to the Acropolis stress free so I could enjoy and take in the amazing sights.
