Our guide Vicky, was extremely knowledgeable, she kept the group moving along but introduced many rest stops on the way while she explained what we were seeing. The whisper audio system worked very well indeed, quality was perfect. We saw much larger groups that didn't seem to be able to keep up. We were just 19 people. There was a delay of some of the group due to heavy traffic. Vicky handled it so well, communicating closely and directing them to where we were so they could continue with us. Highly recommend.

Our tour guide, Becky, was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us a terrific and thorough tour. She was punctual and friendly, and showed us exactly the things we wanted to see. Her guidance made all the difference in the quality of our acropolis experience. Perhaps best of all was that with her handling the tickets, and knowing how things worked, we were able to skip the lines entirely! The only improvement would have been the same advice that we would give any tour guide: always face your group when speaking, and if referencing something behind you, gesture in that direction, but keep facing your attendees. We highly recommend this tour and tour guide, and send our thanks to Becky for a wonderful experience.

The view from the top is incredible. Vicky was awesome - very friendly and knowledgeable. We took enough breaks to make the climb manageable. Vicky was always ready to be the photographer for anyone who wanted a photo with anything in the background. A great experience that taught us a few things about this great site and Athens in general.
