Outstanding and a must do if you come to the Acropolis with kids! Ilias was phenomenal and incredibly bright and skilled on what to stop and talk about and when to move around. Our kids (ages 8 and 11) were engaged the whole time and learned so much history in an organized way. Ilias is a real treasure to Context Travel! I will always look to book a Context kid friendly tour in any city we visit next!

We have a few comments. Mostly we love Context Tours and will continue to take them when we visit cities. But here's our feedback: 1) It should be more obvious in the initial pricing that we would be billed subsequently for an additional participant. We've done Context tours with three people at least before. This had two adults and two children. Considering it's a tour with kids, seems obvious the listed price would include at least 4 people? This was confusing. 2) There should be more communication up front about what to bring to the acropolis if you're a family. We arrived with our stroller, having read there was a stroller check on the acropolis website, but there was no stroller check at the gate where we met our guide, so we spent literally the first hour walking to the other entrance to check the stroller. trying to get in there, and then walking back to the original meeting point and then waiting in line. With some more up front communication (Again, because this is a tour for kids) this could have been avoided and saved us a lot of time, and it also used up a lot of our kids energy! 3) The skip the line tickets don't really skip the line, some better messaging about that would be good too. Again, if we hadn't had the stroller mix up, we would have been pretty early in the line. Once we finally got started, our tour was great! Our daughter learned so much on this tour, we thought she was totally spaced out and exhausted the whole time, but turns out she was paying attention and telling us later all that she learned. Kudos to Alex for how he shared about Greece and the Acropolis with our family.

We really enjoyed this tour. Anastasia was knowledgeable and engaging, and was great with our kids (ages 9 and 12). We all learned a lot! Highly recommend.
