Itinerary
From the very first moment in Syntagma Square, standing before the Parliament and the Monument of the Unknown Soldier, you’re not simply observing the ceremonial change of the Guards — you’re witnessing a living tradition that connects modern Greece with its proud past. And then, instead of boarding a bus, you walk into the heart of the city.

As we stroll through the peaceful National Garden and past the elegant Zappeion Hall
Our expert guides will take you to see the Panathenaic Stadium where the first Olympic Games of modern times were held in 1896.
The grandeur of the Temple of Olympian Zeus and Hadrian’s Arch rises before you — powerful reminders that Athens has always stood at the crossroads of civilizations.
On the Acropolis visit the Architectural Masterpieces of the Golden Age of Athens: The Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion and finally "the harmony between material and spirit", the monument that "puts order in the mind", the Parthenon. Continue and visit the place where at last the statues found their home and admire the wonders of the classical era: The new Acropolis museum.
