Description
The city visit includes a panoramic tour of the city by bus and a visit of the Acropolis rock on foot.
Athens, is one of the oldest cities in the world, continuously inhabited, with more than 3000 years of written history and references that date up to 6000 years of history.
Today as the capital of Greece, it is the largest city with almost half of the Greek population.
Taking these facts into account, the visitor can imagine that Athens is an urban museum where the historical epochs are noticed in its streets and its secret treasures.
Surrounded by the mountains of Ymittos, Penteli and Parnitha and facing the sea towards the Saronic Gulf, the Athenians controlled everything from the center of the city and in particular from Acropolis with its Parthenon.
Join us to discover the architectural wonders of the Hellenic capital and learn the history of the sacred rock of the Acropolis.
