Start with the Acropolis site, a complex of buildings that includes the Parthenon, Erectheion (the temple with the 6 female figurers, Karyatides), Temple of Athena Nike (Wingless Godess), Propylaia (the monumental Gate), Odeon of Herodus Atticus, Dionysus theater & the Mars Hill or Areios Pagos
Next stop will be the Temple Of the Olympian Zeus, the Panathenian Stadium (the stadium of the first Olympic Games on 1896), the memorial of the Unknown soldier & the changing of the Guards (Euzones) in front of the Greek Parliament, opposite the Syntagma or Constitutional square.
We will also drive through Plaka (the oldest neighborhood in Athens) & Monastiraki (Flea Market)
After that let’s see the Trilogy of Athens (the Academy of Science, the First University of Athens and the National Greek Library) & the Lycabettus Hill (the highest point of Athens), where the view is breathtaking.
After all get ready to taste the famous Greek cuisine in a traditional Athens restaurant or tavern.

Lazarus and Natasha were outstanding. They were very knowledgeable about the history and culture. They adapted the day to our interests and the holiday closures.
We will definitely search them out for our next trip!

We had no idea that we had planned our one full day in Greece on Orthodox Easter when all the major archaeological sites were closed. However, Theodore our driver was able to cover even more area with the extra time allowed by not visiting the sites from the interior and gave us great history and local insights to what we were seeing. He also took us to great little hidden "local" spots.

Peter was always sure to check with us about physical limitations and answering all questions. He tailored it to what we wanted to see. He was wonderful!

This was a great overview of Athens. Our tour guide, George, was a retired professor and very knowledgeable. We had a separate driver to skillfully navigate the crowded streets. Since the tour was private, George customized it to our requests. The vehicle was a very comfortable Mercedes minivan. We were very pleased and highly recommend any tours from this vendor.

Niki was an excellent guide and the food stops were of great local quality and quite plentiful. I don’t need to eat again for a week!

Our guide, Kostas, and driver, Lazarus, were amazing. They took us to the important landmarks of the ancient city and also to the heart of the city that locals know and love. Kostas was extremely knowledgeable and proved to be an excellent teacher. Lazarus' ability to navigate the city streets was impressive and skillful. We would highly recommend requesting their services.

Fabulous! Timely, informative and safe. Costas was out guide and Lazarus our driver. Athens traffic is crazy but they knew every trick to get us around in spite of backups. Made great use of our time. Loved the childhood stories interspersed with the sites to bring true context to the experience. I would most highly recommend this company and the two who helped us today. Exactly what we were hoping for!!!!!
