Itinerary

  1. This tour will reveal things that most visitors do not expect. That is, the southern coastline of Attica, the famous Athens Riviera, definitely one of the most beautiful coastlines in Europe. At a distance of only 65km from Athens center, lies one of the most impressive sites of the Attica region: the Temple of Poseidon: built during 444–440 BC, this temple is one of the major monuments of the Golden Age of Athens. It is perched on the headland at a height of almost 60 meters, surrounded by the sea, creating a magical landscape. It is highly recommended to take this tour in the afternoon in order to experience a breathtaking sunset.

About Athens

Athens sets the Acropolis above a sprawling modern capital, where ancient ruins, hillside lanes and long taverna evenings sit side by side.

The Parthenon crowns the Acropolis, flanked by the Erechtheion and its porch of caryatids, and the Acropolis Museum at the foot of the hill displays sculpture found on the rock. Around it, the Ancient Agora, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian's Arch and the marble Panathenaic Stadium make the classical city easy to walk through.

Top-ranked sights in Athens: Acropolis, Parthenon, Acropolis Museum.
