Great afternoon learning about the Acropolis. This made our visit so much more enjoyable by learning firsthand all the things we were looking at!

Communication prior to tour was excellent. Tour was fantastic, very knowledgeable guide. Views were amazing and our group of 8 agreed it was nice to have extra history than if we had visited on our own.

We did a personal tour with Becky aka Warm Penguin . She was the best tour guide we ever experience on the Acropolis tour in Athens. Very knowledgeable and took her time sharing historical moments on the tour Highly recommend her. Five stars!!!

Betty was an excellent guide! Knowledgeable, explained history & architecture in a meaningful way, shared insightful stories, well organized & spoke very good English. Our 3 hour tour was money well spent.

This was an amazing experience!! Lisa and Alex went "above and beyond". Lisa is an outstanding tour guide, not only able to communicate her knowledge of the Acropolis, but completely at our pace. And tying it altogether in the museum was a highlight of our trip to Athens!

I’ll start by saying that this tour group was so wonderful and our guide was flexible and knowledgeable! We were supposed to have our private tour on our first leg in Athens, unfortunately I was up sick all night before the tour, when my husband arrived to do the tour alone they were more than helpful and rescheduled it for our return leg in Athens. I was so thrilled that they worked with us because I was definitely sad to be sick and miss this private tour. Now, our guide, Eva, was amazing! She was a wealth of knowledge, beyond history and into philosophy. We learned more than we could have ever imagined. And she was so good at stopping to get photos for us along the way (memories for us to have forever). We were a tad late to arrival due to a delay on our flight, Eva made sure to get us to the top, while balancing time along the way up. And on our way out (since we had the last time slot of the day) she walked us along the outside and continued to share information with us giving us our full 90 minutes anyways. I can’t recommend booking through this tour group enough!

Wonderful 3-hour tour of the Acropolis and Parthenon and associated museum. Lydia, our private tour guide was a licensed historian and extremely knowledgeable. She was very professional and personable and spoke perfect English. She knew how to get around the crowds and also knew all the perfect places for pictures. I highly recommend this tour, and you should definitely ask for Lydia as your guide!
