Join a walking tour of the UNESCO-listed Acropolis of Athens. Begin early to avoid crowds and see key sites like the Parthenon, Erechtheion, and the Acropolis Museum, followed by a walk through the narrow streets of Plaka, Athens’ Old Town.
Meet your guide early to start your tour of the Acropolis before it gets too hot. Pass the Theatre of Dionysus on the south slope as you head up to see the ancient structures.
See the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Pedestal of Agrippa while your guide explains the history of the site.
Then, go downhill to view the Ancient Agora and the National Observatory of Athens as you walk. Navigate the cobblestone streets of Plaka and find areas less known even to locals.
