The Mythological world inhabited by the Ancient Greeks was not one of the fairytales, but one filled with a pantheon of real Gods, who it was possible to talk to, summon up, or just meet by chance when they visited the mortal world.
Bad or good decisions could lead to punishments like transformation into animals, or bestow fortune such as victory in battle. Multi-headed Hydras inhabited lakes, Centaurs lived in dark mountain caves, Griffins flew the skies, and the islands surrounding Athens were full of beasts with special powers, from Minotaurs and Sirens. No wonder the mythology of the ancient world formed part of everyday life for local Athenians who carved these beliefs into every monument for us to see today.
So join your private guide and step back 2500 years for a fun and educational tour bringing the mythology of Athens to life in front of you.

Temple of Olympian Zeus
Dedicated to Zeus head of the Olympian Gods, this colossal Temple pre-dates the Acropolis and is the largest ever constructed and home to one of the wonders of the ancient world; a gigantic statue of Zeus seated on a throne over 12 meters tall and encrusted with gold, ivory & Jewels. At the golden sandals of the god sat an olive oil reservoir that reflected on the statue making it appear that the god would rise up and lift of the temple roof. One can only imagine the impact it had on the visitors of the day over 2500 years before! The starting point for the tour is located opposite the temple so you will start with the stories & myths surrounding Zeus and his influence on the citizens of Athens.
Acropolis

Our tour with Christina was absolutely amazing. We had a full 2 hours in the Acropolis and we added on the 1 hour Ancient Agora option. We learned so much and Christina customized our tour based on what we expressed interest in while on the tour. She knew the best spots to take pictures and guided us around the crowds and sites with such ease. Christina is very personable and highly knowledgeable about all things Ancient Athens. Highly recommend this tour.
