The perfect length, straight in. Our guide Dimitris was very personable and passionate about bringing the Akropolis to life for us. A brilliant communicator, extremely knowledgeable. The museum is stunning. As per all the advice definitely do this before visiting Acropolis itself.

A must visit museum with a very knowledgeable guide (Dimitris). He gave us a very good overview about the history of the Akropolis and the museum itself, retelling the history with humour and modern relativity. Very recommend.

The tour was insightful. The guide was very knowledgeable. The only caveat is that we had to wait quite long to get started. The tour at the museum was the 2nd part for most participants - but no for us - after a 1st part at the Akropolis.

The tour was fascinating and Margherita is to be congratulated on her knowledge and passion for the subjects. Highly recommend.

It was my worst guided tour ever! Our guide gave us very little and flat information on the exhibits - not worthy of the astonishing cultural legacy of Ancient Greece for the western civilisation! Actually this tour was part 2 of a longer tour, part 1 being the visit of the Acropolis – organized for a group of American cruise tourists. I was just joined onto it when they came back from the Acropolis. So our guide would spend too much time organizing our group in a circle or sitting us on the benches so that everybody could feel comfortable. And then she would say just a couple of words about the exhibit – and off she goes to the next one. No wonder that the tour lasted only 45 Minutes instead of 75 promised minutes! For me personally it was a disaster and very unfair! I wanted to get QUALIFIED information about the amazing exhibits. I felt furious when the guide said after 45 minutes that the tour is over and the cruise tourists have free time now. I felt hornswoggled and deceived!
