Embark on an immersive 8-hour journey through Athens' most iconic sites. Start by visiting the Acropolis Hill, where you’ll marvel at the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Propylaea.
From the hilltop, enjoy panoramic views of the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Theatre of Dionysus, and the Areopagus. On the way down, pass the majestic Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian’s Arch, and the Panathenaic Stadium.
You'll also have the opportunity to witness the Changing of the Guards at the Presidential Palace and visit the Athens Trilogy of Culture—comprising the National Library of Greece, Athens University, and the Academy.
Explore the Memorial to the Unknown Soldier and Constitution Square, and delve into the history of ancient Greece at the Temple of Hephaestus, Kerameikos, and the Greek and Roman Agora, including the Tower of the Winds and Socrates Prison.
Conclude your day at either the New Acropolis Museum or the National Archaeological Museum, both offering remarkable collections that bring Greece’s rich past to life. This tour provides a complete view of Athens, blending ancient history with vibrant modern-day culture.
