2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

Explore the best of Athens in just a few hours with your private guide, who will take you to all of the highlights of the historic centre, including Monastiraki Square, Hadrian’s Library, the Roman Agora, Tower of the Winds, and Lysicrates Monument.

Your guide will help orient you with recommendations for the best dining and shopping, including pointing out several of the artisanal shops which remain on otherwise touristy shopping streets. Meet artisans and chefs with your local guide, who will immerse you in the real Athens, hidden in plain sight amongst the ancient ruins and commercialised spaces.

Enjoy a coffee and a traditional pastry at one of Athens’ oldest bakeries, before your tour ends in front of the New Acropolis Museum, which we recommend you explore at your own leisure.
