Excellent tour, easy meet up at the Acropolis Metro entrance, short walk to Acropolis gates & we skipped the queues which was handy! Nikos was a superb guide, tailored his info to my interests & was able to answer all my questions. Well-paced walk with plenty of time to rest & hydrate in the shade & great photo opportunities. Highly recommended especially if time poor and/or travelling solo as I got so much out of the tour, far more than I would have if doing it on my own. Five stars!
Thank you Candice for your review and and the 5 stars! Your words are so meaningful to us. Regards Mister Plato

The historical information wasn’t too much or too little. Our guide was super friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The walk was long but so well worth it! Our Guide regularly stopped and checked in on us to see if we needed to rest etc. the whole experience was of perfect pace and duration! We highly recommend this tour.
Dear Despina, your review is the best reward for us. Thank you so much! Regards Mister Plato
Amazing !! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. Yes you can walk around on your own but hearing the history adds so much more value I highly reccomend this. It was not overly expensive and if this is a once in a lifetime trip it’s worth every penny.
