"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. "

"Alex gave us an amazing tour of the Acropolis and the Acropolis museum. Make no mistake about it, it’s quite a climb up the hill and we had some trepidation about it. But Alex paced us so there were plenty of chances to catch our breath as he talked about what we were seeing and all the history. Next thing we knew, we’d made it to the top. Amazing view and amazing history. So glad we did the trip, and even happier we did it with Alex- we really enjoyed our time with him!"

"Alex is a well prepared and friendly guide who explains the history of the Acropolis like a storyteller unraveling a mystery. He is very engaging and our group of 4 adults enjoyed learning and interacting with him. I would highly recommend him!"

"Alex is an incredibly knowledgeable and experienced guide. He very cleverly took us through the history of the Acropolis with very helpful images of the Acropolis throughout time. The Acropolis museum is a masterpiece- and a beautiful introduction but it would be overwhelming without an expert guide. Alex gave us wonderful insights into how ancient Greek culture influences modern Athens and the rest of the world. We finished our tour at dusk when the soldiers lowered the Greek flag. There were not many people around and it absolutely beautiful. "

"Thank you Markella for a great tour! We had to change our start time and Markella was very flexible to adjusting. Markella was very informative as we toured the Acropolis site and the museum. We learned so much that we would not have seen or known had we just walked around by ourselves. We highly recommend you choose Markella as your guide!"

"Arianna was an absolutely wonderful guide! She made our Acropolis tour both fun and informative, sharing her deep knowledge in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. She was incredibly accommodating and her enthusiasm really brought the history to life - highly recommend!"

"Arianna was very knowledgeable and a plan to work around crowds and include a thorough narrative of what we were experiencing. She was flexible and ensured we had an enjoyable experience. Her recommendations for eating and getting back to our hotel were spot on. "

"This was probably the best decision I could have made for our family trip to Athens! Evanthia is absolutely excellent! She brought history to life, she was very engaging, personable, funny, and an excellent entertainer! I loved the way she conducted our tour through the Acropolis and Museum! We had our two 18 year old children with us, and they absolutely loved it. She helped us all understand the connections between now and then as well as Greek Mythology and the reasoning behind these temples and sculptures! I have been to the Acropolis before, and we have been on many tours throughout Europe - and with Evanthia, I absolutely learned new things and truly am grateful for her."

"We did two tours with Eva, and she was phenomenal. We had 2 kids,14yr and 7yr old and they enjoyed the tours too. I highly recommend her for private tour to Acropolis and archaeological museum."

"One of the highlights of our trip to Athens was our time with Markella. She was so knowledgeable about the Acropolis. She was very engaging and presented the information in a way we could understand. Markella was wonderful!!! "
