Σύντομη περιγραφή

Step into the past on a guided walking tour of the Acropolis in Athens. Make the most of your time with skip-the-line tickets to popular attractions like the Theater of Dionysus and the Parthenon.

Admire the splendor of ancient Greece on this walking tour of the Acropolis in Athens. Avoid the long lines with direct access to attractions like the Temple of Athena Nike and the Erechtheion. Listen as your guide paints a picture of the past.

Meet your guide at our office at Mitsaion 2, 11742 and begin your walking tour. Pass the lines and experience the thrill of seeing the Theater of Dionysus where many famous ancient comedies and tragedies were first performed.

Continue to the Roman Herodion theater which was built in memory of the wife of Herodes Atticus. Stroll to the remains of the healing temple Asklepieion of Athens which was built in honor of the gods Asclepius and Hygeia.

Climb up to the gateway of the Acropolis, the Propylaea. Take in views of the Temple of Athena Nike. Walk to the Parthenon which was dedicated to the goddess Athena, the patroness of the city of Athens. Admire this architectural edifice which is the zenith of Doric architecture of the 5th century.

Finally, see the Erechtheion which is a unique masterpiece of architecture mainly due to its asymmetrical composition, and its supports that include 6 sculpted female figures, the famous Caryatids.
