From the realm of myths to the grounds of reason. The amazing journey of Ancient Greece from blind faith to the search of explanations for all things unknown!

The ancient landmarks provide the best scenery to overview this amazing transformation.

The pre-Socratic philosophers gave us what may be regarded as the only true “discovery” in science: that our world can be understood through natural laws whose identification could enable humans to comprehend their surroundings, and even themselves…

Let's explore together this fascinating shift in human perception and find out where we stand today!

Kerameikos

This is a place relatively unknown to tourists even though it is one of the most important landmarks. Kerameikos means “ceramic”. It was called like that because there were many ceramic workshops here. It was also the cemetery of Athens for many centuries. In this place many prominent Athenians whose name are famous, were buried here! This is also where Pericles pronounced his famous “Epitaph” speech for the first casualties of the Peloponnesian war where he praises the virtues of Democracy and the ways of the Athenians.

Panos was such a great guide! He had so much knowledge and really enjoyed what he did. We loved hearing how all of the subjects came together.
Praise to Panos

Panos was thoughtful, considered and witty, knowledgeable and stimulating, with original delivery. As we walked the streets of ancient Athens, we got a sense of Athens as it was and as it is today. Through his natural story telling, Panos had engaged us from start to end. We give him 11 out of 10 and highly recommend the Democracy and Philosophy tour to anyone with an interest in Greek history and the development of western civilisation.
Absolute gem!

This was one of our favorite tours. Panos was a great guide, and we learned a lot about the beginning of democracy and philosophy. So interesting…made me want to learn more about the ancient philosophers and mathematicians! Highly recommend!
