Great experience

Published on Nov, 2024

After doing a small group tour of the Acropolis Museum, this private tour was much needed. Our guide was prompt, showed us the highlights of different parts of the museum and was a wealth of knowledge. If you’re on the fence about a private tour, just do it. You will get your money’s worth and some.

Excellent Guide

Published on Oct, 2024

Katerina was fabulous! Her enthusiasm and knowledge made our time in the museum flyby. We learned so much and so appreciated her answering all of our questions and taking an interest in what we wanted to know. She is remarkable.

A wonderful Step Back in Time

Published on Oct, 2024

Our very knowledgeable guide did a great job of maneuvering us around the crowds without missing anything. She did a great job of speaking slowly and repeating names that we might not be familiar with. She had great eye contact. A most enjoyable tour.
