If you love history and art.
Merkourios is a fantastic guide. Gave us amazing insights, loved to discuss any subject and was also very friendly and fun to be with. A treat! I would highly recommend him to any tourist who is passionate about history and art.

Merkourios is one of our best and most knowledgeable partners, and we truly appreciate your kind words about him. On his behalf, we thank you sincerely. We hope to see you again in Greece on one of our tours. Enjoy the rest of your trip!

we had a great time shopping, snacking and learning.
We had a great time with Theodora. She was on time to meet us, very friendly and relatable. We chose to walk to the Agora and got to spend time getting to know Theodora and the area. It was quite fun to learn about her as we walked. The best part of this tour was the ancient Agora and the knowledge our tour guide provided, I wish we had more time in the museum. In the Modern Agora we had a fabulous lunch. A few notes - if shopping is not part of your interest in the modern Agora -simply say so. We ended up in a Jewellery shop - we were open to it but I can tell that others may be put off. (I got a lovely new ring to celebrate our anniversary) Our lunch was way more than a tasting - with wine and large portions. We were asked if we would record a video review and absolutely agreed to help - we had a wonderful experience but we can't say this is the usual event. As stated, the knowledge of our tour guide was the most impressive part of the tour. But we had a great time shopping, snacking and learning.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much on behalf of both Specialty Tours Greece and Theodora personally. Always at your service, we were really glad to meet you and know you enjoyed your experience with us

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora cost?
+
Prices start at $70 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Walking Tour:Visit the Ancient Agora - Taste the Modern Agora start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
