Acropolis & Agora Guided Tour

After meeting at the selected time at 45 Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, we'll embark on a journey to Ancient Greece. Are you ready to visit two of the most famous sites in Athens?

We'll start the tour by visiting the Acropolis, one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. With its imposing hilltop location, this site is home to such iconic monuments as the Parthenon, the temple of Athena Nike, and the Erechtheion and its caryatids.

Here we'll discover the main architectural elements used in Classical Greece and explore the ruins of a powerful civilization that influenced the society and culture as we know it today.

The tour will continue as we reach the Ancient Agora. Did you know that this was the center of social, political, and commercial life in ancient Athens? This is the birthplace of democracy! Here, we'll learn all sorts of facts about the space, and why Greek democracy failed, how it compares to modern democracy, and everything in between.

Lastly, after this tour of ancient Greece, we'll bid farewell after four and a half hours.
