Travel back in time on an informative and fun tour of the Acropolis of Athens, guided by a field expert and licensed tour guide. Discover this UNESCO World Heritage Site through a journey into history, mythology, and storytelling.

Visit the unique Acropolis hill. Admire the Dionysus Theatre, where famous ancient dramas and tragedies were first performed. Walk around the stunning Odeon of Herodes Atticus and the sanctuary of the healing god Asclepius. On top of the hill, visit the Propylea Temple of Nike and the Erechtheion Temple. Explore the Parthenon, which is the most important symbol of democracy and Western civilisation.

Continue with a visit to the Acropolis Museum. All the original surviving masterpieces from the temples of the Acropolis are displayed with the use of natural light. Excavations are also visible under glass floors and walkways. Explore the first floor, where exhibited artefacts reveal facets of the Athenian daily life. Get to know wedding customs, children's favourite toys, healing techniques, and religious practices. On the final floor of the museum, next to the breathtaking view of the Acropolis, admire the original, unique in concept and artistic excellence, Parthenon frieze.
