Acropolis Morning tour
The UNESCO-listed Acropolis is Athens' most visited attraction, but it has the traffic to match. This two hour walking tour makes an early start to avoid the crowds, and includes highlights such as the Parthenon, the Theater of Dionysus, and Erechtium.
Meet your guide at Athanasiou Diakou street 16 (Athens Walks Offices) in time for a 9am departure, and walk the short distance to the monuments to start your Acropolis morning tour. After picking up your tickets from your guide for a skip-the-lines tour, head inside to explore the hilltop archaeological site.
Listen as your guide transports you back to ancient Greece with stories of the ancient city and its importance. Stop to admire the magnificent ruins, most of which date back to the 5th century BC. Some highlights include the much-photographed Parthenon, the restored Temple of Athena Nike, and the Erechtheion, known for its exquisite Caryatid statues.
