Experience the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum in a more relaxed way with this afternoon guided tour. As the midday heat starts to fade and the crowds begin to thin, you’ll explore two of Athens' most important landmarks with a knowledgeable guide who will bring ancient history to life.

Your journey begins at the Acropolis Museum, one of the world’s most renowned museums. As you step inside, you’ll be surrounded by artifacts and sculptures that tell the story of ancient Athens. Your expert guide will share insights about daily life in ancient Greece, helping you imagine what the city was like thousands of years ago.

On the museum’s top floor, you’ll stand before the magnificent Parthenon frieze, a masterpiece of classical art, while enjoying a stunning view of the Acropolis and the Parthenon from the museum’s glass walls.

Once you’ve explored the museum, begin your ascent to Acropolis Hill at the perfect time—when the sun is lower, the temperatures are cooler, and the crowds are smaller. As you make your way up, stop at the Theater of Dionysus, the birthplace of drama, where famous Greek plays were once performed for thousands of spectators.

Pass through the grand Propylaea, the monumental entrance to the Acropolis, and step into one of the most iconic archaeological sites in the world. Here, marvel at the Parthenon, the majestic temple dedicated to Athena, standing tall as a symbol of Athens’ golden age.

Also, visit the Temple of Athena Nike, a tribute to the goddess of wisdom and victory, and the Erechtheion, home to the Caryatid statues, the graceful female figures that support its porch.

As the tour comes to an end, take a moment to soak in the breathtaking panoramic views of Athens. With the sun beginning to set, the city is bathed in golden light, creating a magical atmosphere. Don’t forget to have your camera ready for some unforgettable photos.
