I began this tour as a local keen on showing visitors around, highlighting our landmarks and offering a taste of Greek culture. This private tour efficiently covers Athens and Sounio in a single day. Starting at the Acropolis, you'll see the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheum, and the Parthenon. We then move to the Temple of Zeus via Hadrian's Arch, visiting the Panathenaic Stadium, site of the 1896 Olympics. We'll pass by the changing of the guard, view Athens' architectural trilogy, and drive to Lycabettus Hill for city views. The tour includes a drive along the Athenian Riviera with a stop at Vouliagmeni Lake, ending at Poseidon's Temple in Sounio. Come along for a journey through history and beauty! KINDLY NOTE: Should your group size vary, please reach out to me directly for a tailor-made tour.
