Description:

On this small-group visit to the striking Acropolis of Athens, stroll through the Parthenon, the Ancient Agora, the National Observatory, and many more. Along the way, your local guide illuminates this ancient era and explains each monument you pass by.

Start your walk across the south slope of the Acropolis to avoid the crowds and gaze out at the city's mesmerizing beauty on your way to the top. Pause for the perfect photo before visiting the Theatre of Dionysus, which dates back to the sixth century BC.

Once you reach the top of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, follow your guide inside to explore its extraordinary monuments. See the Parthenon, which was built in 447 BC, and learn about its relationship to the goddess Athena. Marvel at the Erectheion, Propylaia, and Nike temples, as well as the Monument of Agrippa. As you soak in the area's history and get up close with these historic marble structures, your guide brings you back in time with legends of Greek gods and stories from the era.

After taking in a stunning list of landmarks—the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, Ancient Agora, National Observatory, Philopappos, and Pnyx Hill—finish with some free time to explore these breathtaking sites at your own pace.
