• Athens - Guests will be picked up from their hotel, apartment, or Piraeus Port to begin the Athens Tour.
• Acropolis - The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel situated on a rocky outcrop above the city, featuring remnants of several historically significant buildings, the most renowned being the Parthenon. The term acropolis derives from the Greek words ἄκρον (akron, “highest point, extremity”) and πόλις (polis, “city”). While there are many acropoleis in Greece, this one is particularly notable. Evidence suggests the hill was inhabited as early as the fourth millennium BC, but it was Pericles (c. 495–429 BC) in the fifth century BC who oversaw the construction of the site’s most important buildings, including the Parthenon, the Propylaea, the Erechtheion, and the Temple of Athena Nike. The Parthenon and other structures were significantly damaged during the 1687 siege by the Venetians in the Morean War when gunpowder stored in the Parthenon by the Ottomans was struck by a cannonball and exploded.
• Parthenon - Atop this sacred hill stands the Parthenon, a pinnacle of ancient Greek architecture. Visitors will experience the grandeur of ancient Greece, captured in every piece of marble. This architectural masterpiece embodies the best of human spirit and genius, awaiting the return of its famed sister marbles.
• Old Temple of Athena - The Temple of Athena Nike, dedicated to the goddesses Athena and Nike, is the earliest fully Ionic temple on the Acropolis, built around 420 BC. It occupies a prominent position on a steep bastion at the southwest corner of the Acropolis, to the right of the entrance, the Propylaea. Unlike the walled sanctuary of the Acropolis proper, the Victory Sanctuary was open, accessible from the Propylaea’s southwest wing and a narrow stair on the north. The bastion’s sheer walls were protected by the Nike Parapet, adorned with a frieze of Nikai celebrating victory and sacrificing to Athena and Nike.
• Erechtheion - The Erechtheion is an ancient Greek temple on the north side of the Acropolis, dedicated to both Athena and Poseidon.
• Theatre of Dionysus - The Theatre of Dionysus, an ancient Greek theatre in Athens, is located on the south slope of the Acropolis hill. Originally part of the sanctuary of Dionysus Eleuthereus, the first orchestra terrace was built around the mid- to late-sixth century BC, hosting the City Dionysia. The theatre reached its peak in the fourth century BC under Lycurgus, with a capacity of up to 17,000, and remained in use until the Roman period. It fell into decay during the Byzantine era and was not identified, excavated, and restored until the nineteenth century.
• Herod Atticus Odeon - The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is a stone Roman theatre on the southwest slope of the Acropolis, completed in AD 161 and renovated in 1950.
• Acropolis Museum - The Acropolis Museum is an archaeological museum dedicated to the findings from the Acropolis of Athens. Built to house artifacts from the Greek Bronze Age to Roman and Byzantine Greece, it also lies over ruins from Roman and early Byzantine Athens. Founded in 2003, the museum’s organization was established in 2008, and it opened to the public on 20 June 2009. It exhibits over 4,250 objects across 14,000 square meters.

• Monument to the Unknown Soldier - The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a war memorial in Syntagma Square, Athens, is dedicated to Greek soldiers killed in war. Sculpted between 1930 and 1932 by Fokion Rok, it is guarded by the Evzones of the Presidential Guard.
• Syntagma - Syntagma Square, or Constitution Square, is the central square of Athens, named after the Constitution granted by King Otto following a popular and military uprising on 3 September 1843. Located in front of the Old Royal Palace, which has housed the Greek Parliament since 1934, Syntagma Square is a key historical and social hub, central to commercial activity and Greek politics. The name Syntagma also refers to the surrounding neighborhood.
• The Academy of Athens - The Academy of Athens, Greece’s national academy and highest research institution, was established in 1926 and operates under the Ministry of Education. Its main building is a major landmark of Athens.
• National Library of Greece - The National Library of Greece, located near central Athens, was designed by Danish architect Theophil Freiherr von Hansen as part of his Trilogy of neo-classical buildings, including the Academy of Athens and the original Athens University building. It was founded by Ioannis Kapodistrias.
• Arch of Hadrian (Hadrian’s Gate) - The Arch of Hadrian, commonly known as Hadrian’s Gate, is a monumental gateway resembling a Roman triumphal arch.
