Athens for CRUISE SHIPS with opt. Acropolis from Piraeus Port

It was very hot but the tour company made sure we saw everything without risking a heat stroke ;-)! Pick up and drop off was directly at the cruise port and they used a brand new air conditioned mini bus. Our guide Athena was amazing!! She was super knowledgeable and accommodating. Got us everywhere bypassing the crowds, recommended an incredible restaurant for lunch and even treated us to some Greek sweets. We also really appreciated the small group size vs the gigantic cruise tours or hop on hop off buses. Felt very VIP for a really low price compared to ships.

We had a great experience on this tour. It was exactly as described. We booked the private option and didn’t regret it! They perfectly personalized it to our wishes. ThanSis and Demetris were fantastic! Thank you Viator and Vexperio!

Our tour of Athens was a true highlight thanks to our guide. I forget her name but she was an absolute star- made sure we saw everything in the short time we had, recommended her favorite places to eat, o took great pictures of us and even brought us some Greek treats. New comfortable bus to top it all off. We felt like royalty!

We had a perfect tour of Athens. It only really scratched the surface of this amazing city, there is so much to see, but for a one day tour it was ideal - good combination of driving, walking around and free time without overheating or overdoing it. Álex is a treasure!!! Arrangements wit pick up and drop off directly at our ship were very convenient. All in all good organization and execution - well done!

This was perfect --- they pick you up directly at the port, and take you to the main sights of the city, including Acropolis. You will also have some time for lunch. Our guide and driver were the best!!! Will definitely be coming back to Athens!

This was such a wonderful experience, and probably one of the top 3 tours we ever took in our lives! Our guide, Alex, was the most knowledgable guide I ever met. He took us to all of the city's highlights, provided free time for shopping, helped us find a great and affordable place to grab a bite and even assisted with photo taking. I could not have asked for a better companion to explore the capital of Greece. The tour company was super responsive and helpful. WE will definitely book with Viator and Vexperio again on our next trip!

This tour was ok, guide was nice and informative with good English skills. The biggest thing is she and the driver were in a hurry to drop us off back at the port so we had two hours with nothing to do since there is nothing near where our cruise ship was docked. it would have been nice to know what we were doing. We would have loved more time where we had lunch for shopping and time on our own, but wasn’t given the option

I felt like the entire tour was rushed. We were able to stop for some great views of the city. We were at the Acropolis and Parthenon the appropriate time, but a lot of time was lost with our tour guide what appeared to be bickering with other individuals not in our group. Once she finally got through all her scripts, we were seriously rushed to be able to see the actual structures. Felt like I couldn’t take it all in or I would get the wrath or left behind. There was confusion on a meeting place after getting out which only caused frustration. Our next stop was eating/free time. We opted to eat but sadly had no time to walk in even one store. Straight back to the boat that offers no shopping. We kept being told how busy it wasn’t. I can’t imagine if it had been busy! What else would have been cut? Also the big, long conversation over pickpocketing when we stated the day put us all edge. I get the warning but the non-stop did not instill any security as a tourist in your country.

This tour was extremely well organized from the cruise port. Our guide was right on time just outside the ship, entertaining and very knowledgeable. He (three syllable name starting with V, and meaning king, and sorry, still can't pronounce) kept us informed of the historical relevance of everything we were seeing. Our driver (Dimitri?) was a very good driver and we were all able to focus on the sights and not worry about the road. The bus was clean and comfortable, with two seats on one side and one seat on the other side of the isle. The highlights for me were the changing of the guard and Acropolis. I thought there would be no way I could climb the Acropolis and, though I didn't make it all the way to the top, I'm very happy to say I almost made it before I found a nice, marble step calling my name. Even at my age and poor fitness level, I was able to enjoy the experience. But prior to the climb, I loved seeing their changing of the guard. When we've seen this in London, even with the very high priced tour guides, we couldn't really feel it, as the crowds were awful and it would have been a great production if we weren't all struggling to get a spot in front. This changing was not crowded nor a big production, but the unexpected method of the changing was so unusual that I enjoyed it much more than any I've ever witnessed. Toward the end, we went to an area where we could shop, eat, or just wander. The last hour was spent there, and that was just about right. After buying a few souvenirs there, I had a super reasonably priced strawberry pie and he had what looked like a calzone. I'm pretty sure the bill was total of like $7 including a can of soda. The vendors were in no way pushy and I was able to enter and exit anywhere comfortably. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

We needed a post cruise tour in Athens and this did not disappoint we got to see a lot in a short amount of time I would recommend this tour
