great tour with Frosso - Met at the train station meeting location, Frosso was our guide, she explained everything about the tour and even suggested to use the bathroom since there are none at the acropolis site. We started at the site and she explained what each building was used for, she was extremely knowledgeable. Once we exited the site, we toured the museum. She discussed every highlite and made sure we alll understood the meaning of each exhibit, excellent time but be prepared to walk a lot at the site

Efficient way to see the acropolis and museum and understand what you're seeing - It was an informative tour of two sites. The acropolis area ans the museum. If you want tonsee more sites, you'll be beat onlookers for a longer tour that includes things like the temple of Zeus etc outside of the acropolis

Comprehensive and Fascinating Tour - Comprehensive and fascinating Tour with Elena. She was very friendly, helpful, knowlegeable and we really enjoyed our tour with her. We would recommend this tour to all visitors who want an excellent Acropolis, Parthenon and Museum experience. It was easy to find the meeting point and Elena held an umbrella aloft so we could keep track of her. The 'whispers' ear pieces were very helpful so that all could here the tour (even those that needed to sit down). We would definitely recommend this tour

Great tour - Meet up went well. There are lots of tour groups meeting in the same place so be aware. Our tour guide was amazing. She was extremely informative and paid extra care for our safety when it came to traversing the path to & from the acropolis. She showed us the highlights of the museum as well.

A bit over and under -whelming - The acropolis area is extremely busy (many tours and individuals), and climbing up requires a moderate level of accessibility. Good grip shoes are also recommended. This your said small group but we were about 20, and I'm not sure which skip the line we had access to, as we had to wait on a line to get in to the acropolis complex. Our tour guide spoke English well, but her cadence and vocal mannerisms made her difficult to understand. The audio equipment worked properly. There is no access to water or restrooms within the acropolis.
