About this activity
Behold the wonders of Ancient Greece on this combo tour of the UNESCO-listed Acropolis of Athens. With an expert guide, start the walking part of the tour and discover one of the world’s most famous archaeological sites. Visit the Theatre of Dionysus and see Dionysus Sanctuary. Then, stroll to the Acropolis summit, stopping at monuments such as Propylaia gateway, the Temple of Athena Nike and the acropolis’ crowning glory: the Parthenon.
Absorb sweeping panoramas of the city below, and learn about the citadel’s ruins as well as excavation efforts from your guide. After your descent from the Acropolis, take a small break, cool off by drinking some water (gratis) and start the second part of the tour which is the Trikke Ride! The 3-wheeled electric, ecofriendly Trikke can be ridden easily by anyone, including children. Before starting, take part in a small orientation for safe riding. Small children (ages 6 to 10) will ride with an accompanying guide and older children will ride by themselves. Relish an exhilarating Trikke ride and marvel at some of Athens best sights.
At each stop, relax and take in incredible views of each ancient site. Visit the Hellenic Parliament and see the famous Evzones standing guard at the Monument of the Unknown Soldier, ride on towards the National Gardens, the beautiful Zappeion Hall, and visit the surviving columns of the Temple of Zeus and Hadrian’s Arch. Finish your journey after your visit of the markets in Monastiraki area and get a feel for the atmosphere in the narrow streets of Plaka, the oldest neighborhood of Athens. Be assured, all pictures and video footage taken from your guide will be sent after your tour electronically.
