Acropolis

The Acropolis is an enduring symbol of ancient Greek civilization and architectural prowess. Dominating the city skyline, this citadel houses several iconic structures. Built in the 5th century BCE, the Acropolis reflects classical Greek ideals with its Doric columns, intricate friezes, and meticulous symmetry. The Propylaea, Erechtheion, and Temple of Athena Nike complete the ensemble, each contributing to the Acropolis's cultural significance. Despite enduring centuries of war, weathering, and reconstruction, the site remains an unparalleled testament to the achievements of ancient Athens. The elevated location offers panoramic views of the city below, creating a captivating blend of historical grandeur and contemporary urban life, making the Acropolis a UNESCO World Heritage site and a destination that continues to inspire awe and admiration.

Made of Pentelic marble, it housed a massive statue of Athena Parthenos. Despite damage over centuries, it remains a symbol of ancient Greek culture and architectural brilliance.

    Our driver Petros was amazing! Picked up in a luxurious van with bucket seating facing each other. We had a lot of luggage and the storage area in the back compartment, held everything with room to spare. Speaks very clearly in English. Had great conversations about the country. Allowed us to modify our timeline for additional fee but was well worth it. Highly recommend him for sightseeing adventure!

    Petros was an excellent guide. He was prompt, had a very comfortable van, and offered water often. We saw multiple locations and he shared interesting facts about the city. He ensured we had front door service and kept an eye on our stuff left in the van while we toured.
