Overview of your Athens tour:

This is the essential walking tour of the Acropolis area and the Acropolis museum, addressed to travellers who wish to get a comprehensive approach to all important parameters that lead to the Golden Age miracle and the construction of the Acropolis monuments: the Parthenon and its companion buildings. This is my favourite walking tour, as we access the Acropolis from its S slope, walking along the same path that an ancient Athenian would follow in order to reach the prestigious temples of the top. Less known sanctuaries and monuments, ancient and byzantine cisterns, sacred caverns, the Acropolis unique flora and fauna, and the emblematic theatre of Dionysos, the first amphitheatre on the face of this earth, the place where the Ancient Greek drama was born and raised: let's put together the puzzle of one of the most fascinating eras of human history. In addition to our walk, a guided tour of the Acropolis museum collections: one of the top 10 museums in the world is waiting for you to explore!
