Excellent tour! - Greeking.me was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication was excellent and everything was well organized. Our tour guide was wonderful, knowledgeable, and he interacted well with the children in our group. Both the children and adults in our large group loved the tour. We highly recommend it!

Private Acropolis Tour for Families by Greeking.me - We had a truly memorable tour of the Acropolis with our two girls, age 5 & 12, the older of whom is a mythology aficionado. Jason is a fabulous guide with a wealth of knowledge of the history, mythology and archaeology of the Acropolis and the ability to share it with visitors of any age. His passion for his subject, depth of knowledge and willingness to tell the girls stories or enter into geopolitical discussion with the adults made this a unique and unforgettable experience. We will never forget seeing the Parthenon and looking out over the birthplace of democracy. Extremely highly recommended.

Great tour of the Acropolis - We really enjoyed our private family tour of the Acropolis with Georgiana. She was so kind and a great guide. Although it was hot and crowded she made the best of it. She took extra extra time for my mom who is 80 and was very slow walking. The tour took 30 minutes longer because of this. We very much appreciated all her efforts! And we all enjoyed our tour of the Acropolis!

Wonderful family tour of the Acropolis - Our guide was absolutely wonderful. We had 3 children ages 3, 4 and 5 and she brought stories along with her about the Gods and included pictures for them to visualize them. She was patient, lovely and created a great experience for us.

Amazing experience for families - This was exactly what I was hoping for when it came to tour Acropolis with my family! Our guide, Ava, was amazing. She was so sweet and shared so much information with us. We were traveling with our two girls, ages 10 and 1.5. Big age gap, and Ava was so understanding of our little one wanting to play in the dirt at one point. Our oldest daughter has recently learned about Greek goddesses and got the chance to ask questions and learn more about them. I learned so much fascinating history about Greece myself. I'm so glad this was an option as we knew a regular tour would not work for us but we had to see Acropolis while in Athens. Highly recommend for families!

Best tour guide! - This tour was amazing! Our tour guide, Dimitris, was the most informative and captivating guide we have ever had (and we have taken plenty of tours in Europe). As an archaeologist himself, there is no question he could not answer. Since I had not been able to book our acropolis tickets ahead of time, we switched to a tour of the (nearly empty) museum at 9 am, taking all the time we needed to understand the site. The 3rd floor of the museum is a simulation of the Parthenon with the real marbles (when available). We also discovered other significant founds from the digs.
Later during the day (as the sun was lower in the sky), we were able to visit the site on our own. This was perfect for our teenagers and us!
