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.
We take an easy pace walk through the Flea market of Athens

5.00The tour visited some of the best ancient hotspots in Athens, and the running commentary was super interesting. I was engaged the entire time, as the topics switched from history, philosophy, democracy, politics, and even spirituality, all met with a lighthearted energy. The group was also wonderful, and everyone made an effort to engage with one another. This was definitely the best thing I did in Athens, and well worth every penny.
Great tour -- and Panos is terrific!

5.00This is an amazing tour -- especially for the (very reasonable) price! It includes several must-see sites in Athens -- and Panos (our guide) is tremendously knowledgeable (not only about the history of Athens but about the history of Western political and social thought). A great experience!
Very knowledgeable and...
