Visiting the Acropolis was the main reason we wanted to visit Athens. We booked this private tour during winter season, the weather was great, not too hot, not too cold, but more importantly the volume of people was much more manageable to see the sights without huge crowds. The Acropolis was one of the highlights of our holiday to Athens and we are glad we booked a private guided tour as it was much more enjoyable to have a guide all for ourselves.
