Hi there! Nice to meet you
Hello, I am Arianna. I was born and raised in Athens, and I have lived here all my life. I studied History and Archaeology in the University of Athens. Of course I chose History , because it's his-story, her-story , my-story , is what makes everything interesting, what makes them to come alive. The story behind the object. But Athens is not only History, it's a city that can seduce you. And I will show you how. Join me and I will also make you laugh. That is a promise.

Arianna's knowledge is beyond impressive, not just of the historical sites but on Athens generally and her advice on the city was invaluable. Her insights into the history behind the Acropolis gave so much more context to the trip and was fascinating to listen to. Arianna also went above and beyond what could be expected to help us when a personal crisis struck, for which we cannot thank her enoughOur guide and saviour!

This was an awesome tour!!! Our tour guide Ariana was great!! She knew so much about the Acropolis and the surrounding area! She was a real historian and was able to explain all of the cool information about the history and mythology at the Acropolis. She was great and flexible, she customized our tour the way we wanted, and it was great! A great tour!!

Arianna was amazing, taking our family of 4 through the Acropolis sites, accompanied by engaging stories. She was very patient with our 8 year old as well, who is so fascinated by Ancient Greece and was curious and eager to learn. Highly recommended to have this private tour if you would like to walk at your own pace, freely ask questions, and listen intently! Amazing Experience with Arianna!

We would thoroughly recommend Arianna who took us on a comprehensive visit around the Acropolis and museum. We were complete Greek novices and this was such a great experience on day 1. Arianna’s encyclopaedic knowledge of all things Greek and Athenian have given us a good grounding of both the sights we saw and also subsequent things we have come across- ‘oh yes- Arianna told us about that’. She has a lovely sense of humour and the tour flew by Many thanks.
Great experience!

Arianna was very knowledgeable about the history of beautiful Athens. Her references of movies comparing to the stories were understandable and really funny.
Listening alongside her book of visual cues from the past to now made learning and absorbing possible.
The Acropolis Museum was spectacular, one of the best museums I’ve ever seen. But in reflection it was Arianna’s ability to tell the stories and reasons behind the exhibitions that made it flow and feel so accessible. I’d recommend her to everyone. History woven with Humor
