Wonderful experience; I was traveling alone and booked this tour. The photo in this review is Hara and I. She is the service manager with the heart of an angel. I missed my bus and she personally picked me up and took me to the next stop to ensure I made the tour. She has a passion for helping people and ensuring every customer has the best experience ♥️

We really enjoyed our tour. Going to Acropolis early in the morning was perfect. Our tour guide was very considerate with going up the hill in 30c as we stopped few times so we can learn history and rest before continuing the climb as it help elderly and not so fit people(me lol) to get to the top without any issues. I would have given 5 stars but the only issue i had is I wanted full English tour but we end up in the group with another language. I know our tour guide did her best to explain in both languages but it I felt that we always missing something. Beside this one little complain we enjoyed our time learning and exploring beautiful Athens and Cape Sounion.

Our guides were amazing! Friendly and knowledgeable but also knowing to give the group enough time to explore on their own! I have tried to figure out which part of the day was my favorite but honestly EVERYTHING came together to make the day perfect! My husband has always been very intrigued with Greek mythology and to actually see where these legends were formed first hand was unbelievable!

The Acropolis . Bot enough time on this site or the temple of Poseidon. The tour waisted time picking up people on the way. I feel that I have paid for being taking around the city for no reason. You should have a centralized location where people can wait then begin a tour. The lunch that was included came with not even a bottle of water. Three hours of this tour was a complete waist.

in the morning we were picked up by one bus at our hotel (Wyndham Grand Athens) and dropped at another hotel (Hotel Amalia) in Syntagma Square to meet our Athens tour. We did a brief tour of the city by bus, stopped at the Olympic Stadium and then to the Acropolis. Since we had taken an abbreviated similar tour the day before offered by Princess Cruises, I had the opportunity to climb the Acropolis twice (85 or so steps) but my wife sat out the second opportunity. This tour included admission to the Acropolis museum. Our AM tour guide, Dimitra, was knowledgeable and actually did a better job at the Acropolis than the Princess Tour guide did the day before. The museum has many of the sculptures etc. from the Acropolis which had to be removed to preserve them, due to smog and the elements effect on them.
It got a bit hectic after that, since this was actually 3 separate events pieced together, and not a single tour as the writeup suggested. Our AM tour guide walked us to the restaurant for lunch and worked it out with the head waiter and told us we needed to meet our afternoon tour up the street at Hotel Athens Gate at 3 pm. Using Google map, we figured out where that was and got to the hotel, where we picked up the afternoon Tour bus. Fortunately, they had our name on their roster.
The afternoon bus drove us down the Greek Rivera with resort homes, beaches, and restaurants- a lovely ride, to Cape Sounion and the Temple of Posidon late in the afternoon. Very scenic and refreshingly different from downtown Athens. After the tour of the Temple, we were driven back into town and dropped off at our respective hotels.
The experience of the tours was great, but should be clear that it is really 2 separate tours and a lunch experience, rather than a single tour for the day. Would have been less stressful to have known that when booking.

A tour guide can make or break an experience. Ours was slow, just plodding along, he repeated himself, stopped to provide narrative in high density spots for long periods of time, creating bottle necks for other groups and finally the group was too big to get any value.
It was poorly organised, there was just a lot of sitting around in the bus. We were collected late from the pick up spot, only to then be driven to the office and wait in the bus for 30 minutes. Once Acropolis was completed bus was gridlocked in and couldn’t move. It was hot and water should have been provided at that point. The city “highlights” section were very underwhelming. Lunch was good but we had had enough by that point and decided to not bother with the drive to the cape
The acropolis is such a marvellous site though, I enjoyed my experience once we got past the stairs and I took out my headset and stopped listening to the guides repeated monotone stories

This was a wonderful tour!
Everything was well planned from pick up to drop off and our guides were very knowledgeable.
We would highly recommended the trip out to see the Temple of Poseidon. It was less crowded and more peaceful than the Acropolis. Plus it makes for great photos!

My son raved about this adventure so I went at a later time. It was exceptional! Great guides. I did the all day trip with the Parthenon, lunch and Cape Sounion.

It was an awful experience. First of all, its not a full day trip, its 2 trips apart. The guide at the first trip, while very knowledgable, didnt care much about giving the tour, she was in a hurry to finish it so she did it all increadibly fast. In the lunch part you are left on your on to reach the restaurant, where the food is not bad but the service is awful, they trear you like a second class citizen, the sitting is in the worst place possible, in the middle of the kitchen door, where the employees run (really run like crazy) around you. At one point one of them hit my table almost almost turning it over me. They dont tell you at what exact time the second tour starts so I completely miss it. DO NOT RECOMMEND DOING IT WITH THIS COMPANY

We had a lovely day of touring. We enjoyed the trip to the Acropolis and Cape Sounion. For the museum tour, although it was guided, we joined it partially (at the start and the end) and spent some time on our own in the museum to explore. Lunch was really good-very generous portions and tasty food. Please be prepared for an uphill fast pace walk to the Acropolis and huge crowds.
