Friendly and Knowledgeable Tourguide - Selena was a knowledgeable, friendly, and energetic tour guide. She had many interesting points about the history of the Acropolis and Parthenon, interwoven with humor and popular culture references. We especially liked the way she punctuated the 2-hour tour with summaries to help us remember the key facts and information.
We would highly recommend this walking tour!

Wonderful Historical Venue with Friendly, Knowledgeable Guide. - Any visitor to Athens needs to visit the Acropolis and we chose this tour because of great reviews. Our guide, Margaret, was very friendly, considerate and knowledgeable. We had beautiful weather and perfect temperature. We were very glad to avoid doing all the climbing in the heat of summer. We did the full tour including the museum, which made it quite a long time and a lot of standing. If we did it again we would probably do the museum separately with a break between.

Amazing Sites, Disappointing Tour Guide - I enjoyed visiting the Acropolis and the Parthenon, as both sites are incredible and rich in history. However, I was disappointed with the tour guide. The guide frequently made the discussion political and asked many personal questions about guests’ backgrounds and where they were from. Early in the tour, she made some negative references to the United States, which I did not appreciate and which made the atmosphere somewhat uncomfortable.
I would have preferred that the guide focus more on the historical aspects of the Acropolis and the Parthenon rather than personal or political commentary. The tour also leaned heavily toward cultural discussion, while I was hoping for a more historically centered explanation of the sites. Because of this, I would not recommend this particular tour guide.
