Skip the tickets, their lines and the tourist crowds, and get the photos nobody else in your feed has. In 3 hours your private driver takes you to Athens' most photogenic spots, the ones locals know: the Acropolis looming above you from a secret viewpoint few visitors ever find, the marble Panathenaic Stadium, the Evzones guard change in front of the Presidential Mansion, and the summit of Lycabettus Hill with all of Athens at your feet. On the way, drive past the neoclassical Trilogy of Wisdom (Academy, University and old National Library), the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the streets of downtown Athens. Then it's down to the sea for the yacht-lined harbours of Pasalimani and the colourful fishing port of Mikrolimano. No entry fees, no queues, and history only if you want it. Your driver knows the angles and will be your photographer. Then lose yourself in the antiquity galleries of a neighbourhood that stays off every map, with free time to shop treasures no one back home will have.
