This was an excellent tour, well worth the price. We were somewhat jet-legged, and several people in my family group later admitted they were not looking forward to an overwhelming, possibly boring, museum tour. Not so! Anastasia made this experience come alive - she was engaging, told stories, and led us through the wonderful Acropolis Museum in a way that made the chronology of both art and politics of Ancient Athens come alive. People have different preferences, but I would recommend doing this tour before touring Acropolis itself, as it will illuminate the experience of being on the Acropolis. Two more things: - we feel badly that we didn't leave Anastasia with a tip--as I mentioned, we were very jet lagged, miscommunicated, and each of us thought the other had it in hand. This was an egregious error because it turned out she was the best tour guide we had in Greece, by far! Very knowledgeable, smart, focused, good storyteller, personable. We're so sorry! She deserved all her pay and more. And secondly, the British Museum really should send the Elgin Marbles back to the Greece and this wonderful museum.
