We did the tour with George Panagos, and it was truly a wonderful experience that I recommend to everyone. Very good knowledge of the city and the history of the Acropolis, which is also narrated in an engaging and educational way, with a rather sharp sense of humor that energizes the visit. I would also recommend doing the joint visit with the museum, as it expands the pass through the Acropolis and provides a more complete view that is well worth it. Thanks to Panagos for everything, as he was a charming guide who also behaved very professionally during a small problem we had when some of us wanted to re-enter the museum after finishing the guided tour.
The excursion to the Acropolis was an incredible experience. It is an amazing place, full of history and beauty, which is exciting and unforgettable to visit. Our guide, George Panagos, did a fabulous job. His explanations were very interesting, clear, and enjoyable, making the visit even more special. Without a doubt, a completely recommendable excursion.
