Overnight in Athens
Breakfast at your hotel.
Depart on a private sightseeing tour of Athens including the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum.
We will visit Syntagma Square, the Academy, the University, the National Library, Iliou Melathron, the former home of the celebrated archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann and one of the most beautiful buildings in Athens, the Panathenaic stadium – all made by white marble, and the Greek House of Parliament, a neoclassical structure overlooking the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier where the traditional Changing of the Guard takes place.
Then drive to Acropolis, where a series of steps invites you to ascend to the top of this sacred rock. Upon reaching the top you will pass through the Propylaea, the stately entrance to the magnificent structures inside, and will be greeted by a spectacular view of the city and the entire basin of Attica. Once inside, you will immediately see the Parthenon, by far the best known and most awe-inspiring of the structures on the Acropolis. This massive Doric temple was dedicated to Athena, the divine patroness of Athens.
Our tour will continue with an impressive visit of the new Acropolis Museum.
The new Acropolis Museum is a whole nation’s duty to its own cultural heritage! The tour in it, is a journey to the history and the Greek ‘soul’ where the Aesthetics of Logic, the Ethics of Freedom and the Rationality of Beauty, are all fused together and carved in stone for eternity.
After the visit to the Acropolis Museum, we continue to Plaka, the oldest quarter of the city. One of the first areas in Athens to be inhabited, this first settlement is thought to be nearly 7,000 years old. It is mostly pedestrian, renovated, and isolated from both the traffic and noise of the city, which makes it a real oasis in which to discover ancient Athens. It is made up of narrow and winding streets full of vegetation, small neoclassical houses, and minute Byzantine churches of the 10th – 12th century A.D. Here hundreds of years of history are revealed to you, in an atmosphere that takes you back to its splendid origins. In fact, many of its streets are built on the traces of the ancient Athenian streets, while walking along the alleyways you can run into wonderful archaeological sites such as the monument to Lysicrates or the roman agora. It is the ideal place to relive the life of ancient inhabitants.
