Take a deep dive into what makes Athens such a fascinating city by traversing a modern metropolis sprinkled with ancient sites and neoclassical buildings in every corner! In the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel or nearby and begin our exploration of the center of Athens. Our first stop will be the Panathenaic Stadium, home to the first modern Olympic Games and the only stadium in the world constructed entirely our of marble! We will take a short stop for pictures and your expert guide will introduce you to the history of Kallimarmaro (the stadium's Greek name, which translates to beautiful marble). We will hop back on the bus and drive through the city, passing by some of the most important sites in all of Athens.

Even though we will not take any more stops until we reach Acropolis, we will pass by the former Royale Palace which is now used as the Prime Minister's residence. Outside you will see the famous Evzones guards, dressed in traditional attire from the days of the Greek War of Independence in the early 19^th century. We will continue passing by the Temple of Olympian Zeus, of which a few colossal Doric columns still remain today. Close by we'll see Hadrian's Gate, a Roman triumphal arch located on the Northwest side of the Temple. Only a minute later we will find ourselves in Syntagma Square, the heart of Athens, with the neoclassical building of the Greek Parliament standing on its top and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier just below it.Further down the road we will see in quick succession the Academy of Athens, The University of Athens and the National Library, all exquisite pieces of neoclassical architecture.

It goes without saying that the centerpiece of a tour to Athens can be none other than a visit to the Acropolis, a world-famous symbol of democracy! It is there that we will explore architectural masterpieces of the Golden Age of Pericles, from the Propylaea, to the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion and of course the Parthenon, a place where 'there is harmony between mater and spirit', a monument that 'restores order in the mind', as ancient Greeks used to say. Our last stop will be the modern Acropolis Museum, with nearly 4,000 exhibits of Hellenism housed inside, including the original Karyatides!

We will meet near Syntagma, the main square of Athens, on top of which the House of the Greek Parliament stands. In front of it we will stop to see the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers and the Evzones in their traditional uniform guarding it. We will continue our pleasant walk through the National Gardens and pass by Zappeion Hall, a palatial building constructed during the late 19^th century. Continuing South, we will walk by the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the nearby Hadrian's Gate, a triumphant arch build during the 2^nd century AD to commemorate the Roman Emperor.

We now find ourselves in the precipice of the area known as Plaka, arguably the most picturesque neighborhood of Athens. We will walk by quaint craft shops and neoclassical houses with the imposing look of Acropolis above us. Nearby we will see the Athenian Agora, the Observatories and the hills of Philipappos and Pnyx. In the street of Dionysiou Areopagitou we will pass by the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, a Roman amphitheater which houses concerts and operas to this day. At the end of the tour, and since you are so close, do not miss the opportunity to visit on your own the Acropolis Museum.

It won't be long until we reach Agistri, a charming island surrounded by turquoise waters, a perfect spot from swimming and snorkeling. If you don't wish to take advantage of our snorkeling equipment and spend this time in the water, you can always disembark and explore the port of Agistri on foot, or optionally rent a bicycle and discover hidden corners of the idyllic island. Before we depart from Agistri, it is recommended to take a tour of the local markets and pick up a memento or two for your friends back home!

Our next stop is the most exclusive for the day; the small island of Moni. A UNESCO-protected slice of heaven, Moni is an uninhabited island that serves as a refuge for wildlife. Since we cannot disembark there, we will dock off the coast and swim in crystal clear waters, snorkel among the vibrant marine life and soak in the sun as the boat gently sways us to a never-before experienced state of relaxation. After you've dried off we will enjoy a delicious Mediterranean buffet comprising of traditional flavors and created by fresh, local ingredients.

From the isolation of Moni we will move on to our most popular destination of the three; Aegina. Arguably the star of the Saronic Gulf, Aegina is now famous throughout Greece for its production of pistachios, but it has also held a prominent status in antiquity. A tour of the markets near the port will afford you the opportunity to purchase more types products made of pistachio that you even knew existed! Should you wish to explore the history of Aegina, both the Temple of Apollo and the Archaeological Museum can be found near the port, while if you are all about swimming, the sandy beach of Avra is at a walking distance from where we dock and great place for a quick dip!

In the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel in Athens or a nearby location and begin our tour in the heart of the city! With the help of expert guides you will visit the most important sites in Athens in the morning, starting with the Panathenaic Stadium, the only stadium in the world constructed entirely out of marble and home to the first modern Olympic Games! You will then proceed through the heart of Athens, passing by the former Royal Palace which has been converted to the Prime Minister's residence and see the Evzones guards in their traditional uniform. On your way to the historical Acropolis you will see important monuments such as the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Hadrian's Arch, the Parliament and the Tomb to the Unknown Soldier. You will marvel at the neoclassical architecture of the Academy of Athens, the University and the National Library which grants an elegant touch in the midst of the metropolis. The main course for this part of the tour can be none other than Acropolis itself, one of the world's most recognized buildings and a symbol of democracy! Your guide will take you to the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion and of course the Parthenon where millennia oh history come to life right before your eyes! Speaking of history, a visit to the modern Acropolis Museum, with its nearly 4,000 exhibits of Hellenism -including the original Karyatides- will shed more light into the inner workings and customs of ancient Athens.

After lunch at a traditional tavern you will take the coastal road out of Athens, enjoying stunning views of the Saronic Gulf along the way, and drive will you reach the very edge of the Attican peninsula, Sounion. There stands the Temple of Poseidon, which served as an observatory for approaching enemies. Alongside the Acropolis and the Temple of Aphaia in Aegina, it formed a triangle that kept ancient Athenians safe and solidified the naval prowess of the city-state. The Temple also features prominently in various stories of Greek mythology, with perhaps the most well-known being the tragic death of Aegeus, father of Theseus, who hoisted himself into the sea once he saw his son's ship approach with a black sail on its mast, wrongfully indicating that Theseus had been killed. You will tour the grounds, get vital information on the Temple's history and enjoy indescribable views offered by the vantage point before returning to Athens via the same route.
