Begin your day at the Syntagma metro station, where you can admire a collection of archaeological artifacts representing ancient Greek daily life. Follow your guide to see the changing of the guard at the Monument of the Unknown Soldier and pass by the Old Royal Palace, home of the Greek Parliament, and then continue toward the National Gardens.

Pause for a photo and some stories from Greek mythology at the imposing Temple of Olympian Zeus. Walk the charming pedestrian path of Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, and see the statue of Melina Mercouri on your way to the Acropolis.

Make the most of the day by avoiding the crowds. Visit a theater built in the 5th century BC to honor the Greek god Dionysus, and admire breathtaking views of the city as you reach the top of the hill. As your guide shares ancient stories and legends, see monuments like the Temple of Athena Nike, the Propylaea, the Ancient Agora, and the Observatory.
