Just the Acropolis & Acropolis Museum Tour - Summer tours
What makes this tour unique
On this small-group tour, you skip the long lines that crowd the main entrance. Your expert Athenian guide takes you to the Dionysus Theater entrance, allowing you to go at a relaxed pace to see the Parthenon, the Choragic Monument of Thrasyllus, the Eumenes Stoa, the Asclepius Sanctuary, and many more sites and monuments. Your guide shares important history and lesser-known facts along the way, giving you a greater appreciation for some of the world’s most significant monuments.
This tour is complemented by a visit to the Acropolis Museum, an impressive center of archaeological research and ancient Greek history — not to mention a great way to take a break from the Athens heat.
What You Will See and Do
See the Acropolis and its Famous Monuments
Entering on the south slope of the Acropolis, you’ll visit the Dionysus Sanctuary and Dionysus Theater before you walk up the slope leading to the Acropolis monuments. Panoramic views of the city will be perfect for Instagram-ready photos.
During your tour, you’ll gain insight into the significance of the historic monuments of Acropolis including the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Propylaia, the Nike Temple as well as other significant sights of Athens including the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Ancient Agora, the National Observatory of Athens and the city’s scenic hills: Filopappos, Mars, and Pnyx.
Note: After the first part of the tour, between the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum Tour, there's an approximate 15-20 min break during which you may get a snack or a drink but there is no time for a leisurely meal.
Visit One of the Best Museums in the World: Acropolis Museum
Designed by renowned Swiss architect Bernard Tschumi and notable Greek architect Michalis Photiadis, the Acropolis Museum captivates guests the moment you arrive. The sleek, modern building opened its doors in 2009, and elegantly showcases more than 4,000 artifacts exclusively from the Acropolis in an open-floor layout. One of the most spectacular aspects of the museum is its glass floors and walkways that reveal real excavations below your own feet. Panoramic views of the Acropolis and top the experience.
The tour ends at the Acropolis Museum.

Peloponnese Explorer - Summer tours
4.6
This was my first tour with Explore and it was simply awesome. One thing the Tour Leader did was ask if he wanted to make dinner reservations for the group. This was a great way of bonding people, and we all became good friends.
I was most impressed with the archeological sites, where Guides provided us with detailed information. One thing I've been talking to friends about was how our everyday words came from Greek, such as stadium came from a word that meant stand. Those little gems sparkled as we walked through the Gymnasium in Olympia.

Spotlight on Greece - Summer tours

The trip was for my wife and I’s honeymoon. It was the best trip I have been on. Very well structured and organised. Our trip manager was so helpful and informative. She was lovely and made the trip very special for wife’s birthday mid tour. The Acropolis site, Meteora and Delphi were incredible sights and experiences. Stepping out of our comfort zone at the Bee farm was so much fun and very informative. The accommodation was more than suitable and we would happily do this trip over and over again. Definitely something that my wife and I will not forget. The people we met and the memories we made are priceless.
