Product Info

In the company of a Professional Licensed Archaeological Guide, have the incredible History & Mythology of the Acropolis with its iconic Parthenon brought to life before you for a once in a lifetime experience.

From Jaw-Dropping insights for seasoned Historians to amazing stories for junior Archaeologists, our experienced and considerate guide will pitch things appropriately to make the most of your valuable time.

Start your tour journey with the Acropolis, taking in all of the incredible monuments & temples of the site. See the Theater of Dionysus the worlds oldest & consider how some of Ancient Greece’s most famous plays were first performed on its stage some 3000 years before. Continue to the 5-meter-thick defensive walls built not by the classical Greeks, but by their ancestors another thousand years before. Climb to the gigantic entrance, the Propylaea and learn how the sun would have glinted from the bronze spear tip of the gigantic statue of the Goddess Athena that once stood there, the last thing many of the sailors would have seen when leaving from Cape Sounion some 70km away to wars and trade in the ancient Mediterranean. Hear the secrets of the Temple of Nike, learn about the mythology of the Mystical Erechtheion & the struggle between the God Poseidon and Goddess Athena, and wonder at the stunning Parthenon a masterpiece of art and architecture.

Among the panoramic views of Athens stretched out below take in the depth of time cultural & Historical significance with your guide before finally descending through the olive trees to view the Odeon of Herodes Atticus Theater, still in use each Summer.

At the end of your tour, you are free to stay & enjoy the views, or our guide will return you to the meeting point and help with any onward directions needed.

Flexible booking options are also on hand too, so if you have time to extend your exploration of Athens you can choose the option to add another site for Private Guiding, or choose the option to explore the charming & vibrant Plaka Neighborhood which includes stops for Quintessential Classics like Greek Coffee/Mountain Tea, Souvlaki or traditional savory pies, & Sweet/Cake delicacies.
