Highlights of Athens


Private Tour from Piraeus or hotels in Athens

If you are visiting Athens for the first time, this tour provides an excellent introduction to one of the greatest cities of the ancient world.


Your first stop is the Acropolis, which means the high city, for a visit to the foremost symbol of the glory of ancient Greece.  Climb the smooth marble steps on the Sacred Way as visitors have for centuries.  History's doors open before you as you reach the Propylaea, a masterpiece of classical architecture, serving as the entrance to the complex of buildings.  You’ll see the Temple of Athena Nike (Wingless Victory), and the Erectheum, with its classical Porch of Maidens (Caryatids).  Stand in awe of what is considered the most perfect example of classical architecture in the world – the Parthenon, designed as a shrine to Athena and at one time housing a massive gold and ivory statue of the warrior goddess. 

You can see all these amazing spots by just walking within Acropolis OR you can hire one of the many licensed tour guides you will find on the entrance of Acropolis (although you don't need to).


Looking down from the Acropolis you'll see the two ancient theaters in its shadow, the Greek theater of Dionyssos where the masterpieces of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides and Aristophanes debuted to delighted audiences, and the theater of Herod Atticus, a grand Roman theater restored and used today for concerts and classical plays during the summer Athens Festival.

 

Next is a driving tour of the city where you see the top sights of the city including the Olympic Stadium, birthplace of the modern Olympic Games in 1896 that returned in 2004.  You'll see the Parliament Building with its traditionally dressed ‘Evzones’ soldiers guarding the Monument to the Unknown Soldier, Constitution Square, Hadrian's Arch and much more.  After you've seen this and much more you are returned to your ship in Piraeus.
