Excellent tour - We had a really good time with our guide, Katerina. She was very personable and knowledgeable, and she was a perfect host! We would highly recommend the private tour for a small group.

A memorable and meaningful tour - Our guide, Demetrius, packed a mass of facts into a fascinating and entertaining few hours at the Acropolis and museum. We had the sense that there wasn't a question we could ask that he couldn't answer, with easy-to-absorb and surprising details. He's an archaeologist who actually worked on the site, and his dedication to its preservation was impressive. The experience couldn't have been as memorable and meaningful as it was for us without him.
And you don't have to take selfies -- Demetrius is a great photographer.

Greeting.me is a MUST!! - This was a difficult tour for our older participant, but our guide took her time and we stopped and she taught us things while we were catching our breath. A private tour with Greeking.me is the best way to see and learn things. They were wonderful and met our needs on every front!

Awesome Athens tour with Greeking.me - On our first visit to Athens, my husband and I received a first-rate tour arranged through Greeking.me. Our guide Chrysoula was a pro. We learned so much about the city and it's history, and had a great time doing it.
A-Plus, Chrysoula! Grazie mille!

Very beautiful 5 hour tour in Athens Greece, Spiros picked us up at the Cruisie Ship Terminal - Viator Travels tour guide Spiros Rapsonanikis in Athens,Greece gave us the best tour in Athens. He was so kind, knowlageable, patient and spoke great english. We had plenty of time at each location . He had our tour timed perfectly that we were able to experience the changing of the guards. We had a fabulous lunch at the restaurant Ta Matakia. Thank you so much Spiros !

Very enjoyable just watch the time - We had a wonderful experience with Greeking.me and especially loved the Athens portion of our tour. The museum tour was a standout — rich in history and perfectly paced — and our guide Jason was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire experience enjoyable and informative.
Our only complaint is that, due to having a slower-moving group, the city driving tour portion was cut quite short and we didn’t get to see as much of Athens as we’d hoped. That said, the company handled the situation very professionally and made it right with us, which speaks volumes about their reliability and customer service.
I would definitely recommend Greeking.me, but I also suggest discussing timing and any necessary adjustments with your tour guide ahead of time to ensure you get the full 7-hour experience that works for your group’s pace.

Maybe not the 7 hour tour? - Our family of 5 (2 adults, 2 college kids and 1 high school kid) took the 7 hour priate tour in june 2025.
Our tour guide was really nice, and we're really glad we got to see the acropolis and museum. But the 7 hour tour was probably too long for us, and the information learned from the guide was ok, not great -the storytelling / detail was kind of boring. In retrospect, we probably should have joi we didn't feel we learned anything more interesting or personalized than we would have gotten from a larger tour, and we didn't love the things we did outside of the the acropolis / museum.
