Cần Quan Tâm
Acropolis
First stop the Acropolis hill. A bucket list visit for milions around the globe. Witness from up and close the most perfectly designed building in history and the most copied one. The Parthenon, or in Greek Parthenonas meaning the temple of the virgin goddess Athena, the daughter of Zeus the god of the Gods. This is the cradle of the Western civilization, where the foundation were put and where democracy was born. Learn the fascinating history behind the Acropolis and the ancient myths related to it. Admire also the temple of Athena Nike, the Propylea, and last but not least the Erechtheon with its beatiful 6 maidens statues. On the slopes of the Acropolis there is probably the oldest theater in the world from 600 BCE and also a Roman odeon used to this day.
Ancient Agora of Athens
Next stop the ancient Agora of Athens. The center of political, financial and social life. A site brought to light by the American school of classical studies. A beatiful site where you can admire probably the most well preserved ancient Greek temple dedicated to Efestos, the blacksmith god that makes all the weapons of the gods, the son of Zeus and Hera. On site there is also a beautiful reconstruction of an ancient 2 storey shopping mall. Today the ground floor houses the museum with the findings of the agora excavation which is still going on. Beautiful pottery, ancient coins, ballots, water clocks and a lot more. Yes, there was a shopping mall with 42 shops 2500 years ago. Apart from that the site has many ruins of goverment buildings, temples, court houses, parliament, theater, statues. Socrates the famous philosopher stepped on this ground. Mostly flat and covered in trees. A must visit site after the Acropolis.

5.00Alexander was sure we saw all the major attractions and gave us the history before touring the sites. He was flexible on what sites and durations we wanted. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Greece and Athens. He had a first class comfortable vehicle and great suggestions on where to eat during the tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a first class private tour of Athens.
Amazing!

5.00This was absolute best way to see Athens in one day! We traveled with family…from our 79 year old grandmother to 12 yr old son; Alexander was super knowledgable about Greek history and very flexible and accommodating to our requests. He made excellent suggestions to enhance our museum visits, and dropped us close to all the venues. Alexander even added other events that we didn’t think we would have time to do, and we had a lovely lunch and time to shop. This was an amazing day and Alexander felt like family by the end of our tour. Can’t wait to come back to Greece!
We had a great tour with...

5.00Alexander was a friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, and professional tour guide. He took the time to explain much of the history of Athens and Greece. We would highly recommend him for a full day tour. The ability to skip the line and have him drop off and pick up at the travel stops saved time and made the day enjoyable.

5.00Our guide, Alexander, was extremely knowledgeable about Greece’s history and shared this information with us in a very entertaining way. He had purchased tickets in advance for us so that we did not have to wait in line. We could modify our itinerary according to our needs. Alexander was a great driver and got us to all our stops in a timely manner. The restaurant he recommended for lunch was authentic and the ambiance and food were amazing! I would highly recommend this tour!!

5.00We had absolutely a fantastic experience with this private tour. Our main objective was to see and know the historical facts, monuments, myths, local customs and culture in Greece. Athens was the very first day of our two-week long vacation in Greece. Our tour guide Alexander was prompt, very professional and spoke excellent English. His vehicle was clean and very comfortable. He also provided us with plenty of bottled water, which otherwise is not not easy to get when you are roaming around in heat. He didn’t hesitate to go extra mile to please us. His knowledge of history, mythology, culture and local cuisine helped us a lot in exploring Athens comfortably without spending time in searching places. Having a private tour, though bit expensive was the smartest plan we had. It was so nice to hear about Alexander’s family, his high level education, his family and most importantly his own aspirations and dreams. We enjoyed his sense of humor and connected instantly. At the end of the tour I realized I forgot my hat in his car. He was so kind to make a separate trip to drop it off at our hotel. I would highly recommend Alexander’s tour and will wish him and his family the best.
