Get the most out of your visit and discover Athens with the expert help of a private guide. Listen to the mythological history of this remarkable city and visit some of its main landmarks, including the UNESCO-listed Acropolis, the stadium that hosted the first Olympic Games, and the fascinating Acropolis Museum.

After hotel pickup, your first stop is Panathenaic Stadium, where the first Olympic Games took place. Marvel at its beautiful construction—it's the only stadium ever built with white marble. Then continue through the city and pass the mighty Temple of Olympian Zeus as you hear fascinating stories that bring old myths back to life.

Take some photos as you drive through the Athens Trilogy, which consists of the national library, university, and academy. You also see the Old Royal Palace, home to the Greek Parliament, with its guards dressed in traditional uniforms.

After that, begin your climb toward the imposing Acropolis. Once you reach the top, weave in and out of temples built long ago, including the Propylaea and the famous Parthenon, and trace the footsteps of some of the greatest minds of the fifth century.

Your last stop is the Acropolis Museum. Here, watch the ongoing excavations of this active archaeological site and immerse yourself in history and art that dates back thousands of years. Prehistoric antiquities, sophisticated marble sculptures, and ancient daily objects take your breath away as you stroll through the spacious halls.
