El conocimiento de la guía se demostró ampliamente. Descansos oportunos en zonas de sombra, explicaciones muy bien detalladas... Se nota que sus conocimientos como arqueóloga le apasionan. Muchas gracias!!! .Subir a la Acropolis sin guía hubiera sido un terrible error!. Translate this opinion into English.

The guide's knowledge was abundantly clear. Well-timed breaks in shaded areas, very detailed explanations... It's obvious that her passion for archaeology shines through. Thank you so much!

Imposible visitar el acrópolis sin una visita guiada. Darío es un fantástico guía que nos acompañó a lo largo del recorrido sumergiéndonos en la vida y cultura ateniense con mucho detalle. Gracias Darío, la visita fue espectacular, a pesar del calor. Translate this opinion into English.

Saliendo de las instalaciones de tour operador -que cuentan con servicios- y teniendo que estar 15 min antes se debería recordar a la gente que la visita es de 2h y que pueden usar los servicios en lugar de hacerlo 10 min después de la salida ya que hemos perdido unos 20min esperando a que la gente fuese al baño. El guía muy bueno en las explicaciones y en la resolución de dudas pero para mi gusto (igual es algo personal) pasó demasiado tiempo callado.

Leaving the tour operator's premises—which have restrooms—and having to arrive 15 minutes early, people should be reminded that the tour lasts 2 hours and that they can use the restrooms instead of waiting 10 minutes after departure, as we lost about 20 minutes waiting for people to use the restroom. The guide was very good at explaining things and answering questions, but in my opinion (perhaps this is just a personal preference), he was silent for too long.

Nos ha tocado el guia Kimon, y realmente nos ha encantado! Ha explicado con detalle sin hacerse demasiado pesado con datos, simplemente haciendo incapie en lo mas importante. Nos ha conseguido espacios en la sombra siempre que ha podido. Ha sido atento con los miembros del grupo, algunos presentaban dificultades fisicas para poder seguir el recorrido, y él en todo momento ha estado muy pendiente y amable. Y ha respuesto con excelencia todas las preguntas demostrando su profundo conocimiento. Translate this opinion into English.

We had Kimon as our guide, and we absolutely loved him! He explained everything in detail without overwhelming us with too many facts, simply emphasizing the most important points. He found us shady spots whenever possible. He was attentive to the members of the group, some of whom had physical difficulties following the route, and he was always very attentive and kind. And he answered all our questions excellently, demonstrating his profound knowledge. Opinion translated. Show original.

La guía ha sido estupenda, lo ha explicado todo genial y en todo momento se ha preocupado por dar la explicaciones en lugares donde no nos diera el sol de pleno. Sin ninguna duda aconsejo 100% la actividad, te adentra en toda la historia y no se hace nada pesado. Diez de diez Translate this opinion into English.

The guide was fantastic; she explained everything brilliantly and always made sure to give explanations in places where we weren't in direct sunlight. I wholeheartedly recommend this activity; it immerses you in the whole story and isn't at all tedious. Ten out of ten. Opinion translated. Show original.

Puntualidad y datos claros. Dentro de la acrópolis fue bastante limitada la visita y la caminata en grupo. Pero no recorrimos los todos puntos de interés. Una vez terminada, me puse a escuchar otras guías y eran más completas y con recursos como los dibujos de los monumentos.

Punctuality and clear information. The visit and group walk within the Acropolis were quite limited. We didn't see all the points of interest. Once it was over, I listened to other guides, and they were more comprehensive and included resources like drawings of the monuments.

Ha sido uan experiencia muy buena! Hemos ido al tour de las 8 de la mañana , 100% recomendable porque después la calor debe ser insoportable. Kimon nuestro guía un gran profesional, se notaba que entendía mucho de la historia de Grecia. Se preocupaba constantemente de contabilizar a las personas para reunir el grupo antes de cualquier explicación, buscaba la sombra para que estuvieramos más confortables y nos ha recomendado lugares para comer, etc. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a great experience! We went on the 8 am tour, which I highly recommend because the heat afterward must be unbearable. Kimon, our guide, was a true professional; it was clear he knew a lot about Greek history. He was constantly checking everyone's names to gather the group before each explanation, finding shade to make us more comfortable, and recommending places to eat, etc. Opinion translated.

Darío, nuestro guía, ha sido una persona encantadora en todos los sentidos: simpático, alegre, sensible, divertido, atento con nosotros... Nos ha gustado especialmente como ha combinado las explicaciones (rigurosas) con historias divertidas, y el carácter social y político que ha impregnado gran parte del discurso. Desde luego repetiríamos contigo otra vez, ha sido un placer pasar este rato juntos. Translate this opinion into English.

Darío, our guide, was a delightful person in every way: friendly, cheerful, sensitive, funny, and attentive to us. We especially appreciated how he combined rigorous explanations with entertaining stories, and the social and political themes that permeated much of his presentation.

We had an excellent Acropolis tour with Kristina. She combines outstanding knowledge with a remarkable ability to make history engaging and easy to understand. She was incredibly kind, approachable, and passionate throughout the visit. Her closing reflection was thoughtful, inspiring, and the perfect ending to a wonderful experience. If you’re visiting Athens, touring the Acropolis with Kristina is an absolute must!

La visita con Kimon Antonelos ( Simon) fue muy interesante. Siempre intentó que estuviéramos cómodos buscando las sombras debido a la calor, y nos explicó la historia no sólo del recinto de la Acrópolis sinó también del nacimiento de la Democracia. Dedicó unos minutos a hacernos fotos para que tuviéramos un bonito recuerdo. Experiencia muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

The visit with Kimon Antonelos (Simon) was very interesting. He always made sure we were comfortable, finding shade because of the heat, and explained the history not only of the Acropolis but also of the birth of democracy.

Estuvo bien, pero sinceramente creo que vale más la pena pagar un ticket que te incluya varios lugares históricos a pagar este. La guía que nos tocó no me gustó, un poco aburrida, creo que hay formas mucho más interesantes y cautivadoras de contar la historia. Está bien hacerlo, no es que sea malo, pero en un futuro prefiero invertir en otros tickets; al menos con la guía que me tocó, no siento que sea un most.

It was okay, but honestly, I think it's better to pay for a ticket that includes several historical sites than this one. I didn't like the guide we had; she was a bit boring. I think there are much more interesting and captivating ways to tell the story. It's fine to do it, it's not bad, but in the future, I'd rather invest in other tickets. At least with the guide I had, I don't think it was a must-do.

Excellent! Our guide Johana was very good and explained everything very well. It's very important to buy your Acropolis tickets in advance, as they aren't always available at the tour time and you might miss your group. The best time to go is very early; after that, the heat and sun make it impossible! Opinion translated. Show original.

Vale mucho la pena realizar la visita guiada a la Acrópolis.

Realmente nos ayudó a interpretar la Acrópolis y el pedacito de la historia griega que representa. Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.
