★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 715 reviews · 2 hours · from $37

Acropolis sunset walking tour with optional fast-track entry, live guide, and 2 hours of ruins and views for $37.

“Such a fantastic tour. Yulia our guide was so knowledgeable. I was expecting most of the tour to be about the Parthenon and maybe the other temples at the top of the Acropolis but it was super in depth, covering lower down on the hill too. We moved at a good pace, managed to avoid the worst of the crowds I think, and learnt lots. I took classics at school so I already had a good bit of knowledge to draw from but it was nice to refresh a lot of that knowledge and to learn some more. Would highly recommend!”
