About This Tour

On this small-group tour you will visit the Acropolis, the cradle of the European civilization, as well as the Ancient Agora where the Ancient Greek democracy came to life. Your expert local guides will bring life to all these amazing monuments with their storytelling!

The Acropolis Entering on the south slope, you'll visit the Dionysus Sanctuary and Dionysus Theater before ascending to the Acropolis monuments. Your tour covers the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Propylaia, the Nike Temple, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Ancient Agora, the National Observatory of Athens and the city's scenic hills: Filoppapos, Mars, and Pnyx. After the Acropolis you will walk to the Ancient Agora with your guide — please bring a snack and water as there is no time for a leisurely lunch.

Walk through Plaka After making your way through the narrow streets of the picturesque Plaka, under the Acropolis, you will end up at the Ancient Greek Agora.

Ancient Agora: The Core of Ancient Athenian Life Of all Athens' ancient sights, the Agora firmly defines the city's status as the cradle of Western civilization. This was where ancient Greek democracy came to life — a commercial, political, religious, and cultural hub where Plato, Socrates and Demosthenes theorized, spoke and debated. You'll also see the significant artifacts at the Agora Museum, located in the two-storied Stoa of Attalos built in the 2nd century BC. The tour ends at the Ancient Agora.
