Discover the beauty of Athens on a full-day guided experience of two half-day tours. Explore the UNESCO-listed Acropolis of Athens and take a scenic drive to Cape Sounion to marvel at the impressive Temple of Poseidon.

Meet your professional guide, early in the morning, avoid the crowds, and start your tour with access to Acropolis Hill. Let the expert in storytelling guide travel you back in time through a journey into history, mythology, and anecdotal stories. Arriving at the top of the hill, we will see the Propylea, the ancient gate which frames the entrance to the Acropolis and comes across the temple of Athena Nike, dedicated to the goddess of wisdom and war. Marvel at the famous Parthenon and hear about its dedication to the goddess Athena. Gaze at the magnificent views of the city from the top of the hill and have your camera ready to snap panoramic photos. Learn about the excavations and get an insight into the citadel's ruins. Acropolis is this historic place in Athens you cannot miss – so join us to explore its many different sites in the best way and become a history buff if you aren't already.

After a morning full of beauty and history, we will take an afternoon scenic drive along the Athens Riviera which offers fantastic views of the Saronic Gulf. Reach Cape Sounion and visit the 5th century BC Temple of Poseidon. Gaze out over the Aegean Sea from this privileged position and, on a clear day you can see at least 7 Greek islands. Learn about Cape Sounion's important role in Greek mythology and history. The first recorded mention of it occurs in the Odyssey, and it was the last landing port for ships returning from Poseidon. Hear about Greek God of the Sea at the Poseidon Temple at Cape Sounion as the sun disappears beneath the horizon. Return to your accommodation in Athens at the end of your tour.
