Overview of your Athens tour

I invite you to experience Athens the way I share it with my guests — as a living city where ancient glory meets vibrant modern life. Together we will explore the Acropolis Hill and admire the Parthenon, Erechtheion, Temple of Athena Nike and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. We will continue to the Temple of Olympian Zeus and Hadrian’s Arch, then to the Panathenaic Stadium, home of the first modern Olympics. We will witness the Changing of the Guards at Parliament and discover the city’s elegant neoclassical trilogy — Academy, University and National Library. From Lycabettus Hill, I will show you breathtaking panoramic views across Athens to the Aegean Sea. We will enjoy authentic Greek flavors at a traditional tavern before ending at the Ancient Agora, birthplace of democracy, or the world-renowned Acropolis Museum.
