Uncover the best of Acropolis Monuments the local Way

"Arianna gave my mother and I a wonderful tour of the Acropolis and museum. She has a deep knowledge of the history and connected many historical facts to modern times via Greek language. Going to see this important site would have been almost pointless without her guiding what we were seeing and its significance to ancient Athenian culture. Having her give the highlights of the museum was especially helpful as there are so many artifacts it would be hard to know which to focus on. To top things off she gave us a great recommendation for local gyros and snacks! Highly recommend Arianna to make your Acropolis visit educational and memorable. "

"Our tour off the beaten path in Athens with Thomas was fun and educational. We walked through at least four neighborhoods. He speaks excellent English. He’s exceptionally knowledgeable about history, culture and Greek personalities real and fictional in film. I liked his flexibility to follow our interests. His route planning was spot on. He used our pre-tour preference form to craft the tour, notably avoiding a genre of sites we didn’t want to visit. His familiarity with niche, delicious and quintessential Greek eateries that we would never find on our own, is another plus for hiring Thomas. "

"Markella had good reviews and I picked her because she is a licensed tour guide (only licensed guides can go into the Acropolis to give tours.) But my family of five (with two teens and a pre-teen) was blown away by what a fantastic guide she was. She really maximized our efficiency in the museum and in the Acropolis itself, and she was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and kind. Plus, she kept us all interested for the whole 3 hours! When she finished, my family kept commenting to me about how wonderful she was. I STRONGLY recommend booking with Markella. "

"The tour with Dionysis was terrific. Wit was fun and we learned so much!! So much history and mythology that I was expecting! We were so glad we did our tour with him first before visiting the Acropolis because he gave such context and history that enabled us to better understand and appreciate it, and many other things around the city, when we saw them. Loved that it was a private tour so we set the pace and asked as many questions as we wanted. Terrific experience! "

"Our tour was perfect. John tailored it to my husband's exact preferences (a blend of Greek mythology and architecture - but also so much more!) and was always checking if we wanted more or less info on any particular topic. In a short space of time, we learnt so much. His depth of historical knowledge is something you'd find hard to rival. Informative, fun, courteous, I really can't say enough good things. John went out of his way to make sure we had a fantastic time; and we did!"

"We had some amazing and enriching hours at the Acropolis and museum with Markella, who was very knowledgeable and pleasant to be with during the three hours we had booked. We experienced all the highlights – both from the Acropolis itself and the museum, which has a fascinating layout. Between all the myths and stories, there was also time for great conversations about Athens, Greece, and much more. We highly recommend booking a local guide – and especially Markella!"

"Our half day with John was much appreciated by the entire family. John has in depth knowledge about history, mythology and Greek society and the ability to present and discuss it in a natural way and answered every little question with interest and commitment. We didn't now it in advance, but hanging out with John, turned out to be the most appreciated activity during our five days in Athens. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Don't miss out on this! "

"My son and I recently had the most enjoyable walking tour with Thomas. We chose “off the beaten track” to find some quiet and mostly undiscovered spots known only to those whose home is Athens. We were not disappointed. Thomas took us to some wonderful places that we would never have discovered by ourselves. We loved his enthusiasm for his city. Thomas went above and beyond to ensure we had the perfect tour. Following the tour, he made sure we knew where we were going and made suggestions for the next few days we were there including restaurants. I can 100% recommend Thomas. We’ve both left with fond memories. "
