Experience the perfect blend of ancient history and modern culture in the comfort of a luxury, air-conditioned Mercedes vehicle, accompanied by a professional English-speaking driver who shares valuable insights into the stories behind each site.
Your tour begins at the legendary Acropolis, home to the Parthenon and a timeless symbol of classical Greece.

At Syntagma Square, witness the grandeur of the Hellenic Parliament and the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Drive through the Athenian Trilogy — the Academy, the University, and the National Library — architectural masterpieces representing Greece’s neoclassical heritage.
Enjoy a stroll through Plaka, the city’s oldest neighborhood, known for its picturesque streets and traditional charm, and Monastiraki, famous for its lively atmosphere and local markets. The tour concludes with breathtaking panoramic views from Mount Lycabettus, the highest point in central Athens.
For a more tailored experience, customize your itinerary to include one of the following:
- Acropolis Museum – showcasing original artifacts and sculptures from the Acropolis
- Ancient Agora and Roman Agora – the political and commercial heart of ancient Athens
- National Archaeological Museum – Greece’s largest museum, housing treasures from across the ancient world
Alternatively, choose the Athens by Night version to see the city illuminated in golden light. Monuments glow against the evening sky, and the city’s energy transforms into a lively, romantic atmosphere perfect for an unforgettable night tour.
