Athens Sightseeing and Acropolis Full Day Private Tour

Description:

Our Athens sightseeing private tour begins from your location (hotel, airport, cruise ship etc.) and our tour will start by visiting the famous Acropolis where you can see the Propylaia, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion and the prestigious Parthenon, a temple dedicated to the goddess Athena, whom the people of Athens considered their patron. You can also visit the Theatre of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus where various performances are organized even to this day.

You will also visit the famous Acropolis Museum, which exhibits the greatest monuments and artifacts from the Greek Bronze Age to Roman and Byzantine Greece.

Leaving Acropolis, we will continue to the Temple of Olympian Zeus which was dedicated to “Olympian” Zeus, a name originating from his position as head of the Olympian gods and it included 104 colossal columns.
Next, we will visit the Kallimarmaro Panathenaic Stadium which is the home of the first Modern Olympics.
Our Athens trip then continues with a visit to the Greek House of Parliament. There, we will make a stop at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and you will witness the famous changing of the guards ceremony.

After that, you will enjoy a city drive along the Panepistimiou Avenue where the University of Athens, the Academy of Athens and the National Library are situated and continue to the popular area of Kolonaki to visit the great hill of Lycabettus. At 277 meters (908 feet) above sea level, you will be able to admire the entire city and its beauty.

Afterwards, we will wander around Plaka, the old historical neighborhood of Athens just below Acropolis, famous for its labyrinthine streets and neoclassical architecture. At Monastiraki, you can eat a delicious souvlaki and buy souvenirs for your loved ones at the so-called Flea Market, where all kinds of shops can be found.

Our next destination is marina of Mikrolimano and Pasalimani bay in Piraeus.
Piraeus has a large variety of places that you should visit and we can suggest you the best local bars and restaurants, whether you want to enjoy a meal by the sea or have a drink at a pool bar overlooking the yachts.
Finally, when you are done with the amazing sea view our driver will return you to your desired location (hotel, airport, cruise ship etc.)

Great locations, historical and archaeological sites. A visit is enough convince you. Our guide Stelios was excellent and gave us a lot of info about Ancient and modern Greece. The view from Lycabetus mountain was amazing and the dinner at Pasalimani was very good. Thumbs up!

We were taken by Peter, who was not only an excellent driver but very humorous and made the experience even more fantastic. The market in Monastiraki is very large, you can find anything you can imagine there. Great tour for a great city.

Fabulous trip . We were very unfortunate with the weather, however Nick (our tour guide) was outstanding. I was a little hesitant at first that it would be very tiring but no, it was super.

If I could give a higher rating I would…My wife (Jessie) and I had a wonder ful time with Dinos who showed the highlights of Athens and Piraeus. We were treated like we were members of his family from the very start. The Piareus bays are fantastic fresh and very beautiful. Good vibes all around!!!!
