About this excursion

Athens in one unforgettable day, at your own pace. Your driver meets you at your hotel, apartment or cruise ship in a private Mercedes and starts where every story of Athens begins – the sacred Rock of the Acropolis. Walk among the Parthenon, the Erechtheion with its famous Caryatids and the Temple of Athena Nike, then step inside the Acropolis Museum. Choose our licensed-guide option and a Ministry-accredited guide brings every temple and statue to life for three hours – something few tours include.

After that, Athens is yours. See the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the marble Panathenaic Stadium of the first modern Olympics, watch the Changing of the Guard at Syntagma, and wander the old streets of Plaka and the Ancient Agora. Stop for lunch at a local taverna, taste the city at the Central Market, browse Kolonaki, and finish high on Lycabettus Hill with all of Athens at your feet. No crowded coach and no fixed script: tell your driver what you love and the day is built around you.
