Being the cradle of the modern civilization,Parthenon temple stands high above the city of Athens and it is an endless symbol of the ancient Greek history.
An ancient stadium made completely out of marble that hosted the first modern Olympic games of 1896 and it is still used today as a finishing point for the Athens Classic Marathon every year.
This high and steep cliff serves as an optimal observation point of the whole city all the way down to the sea.Also there is a typical greek orthodox church right on the top.
The monument is guarded by the Presidential Guard soldiers.Dressed with traditional Greek uniforms,the guards stand still paying tribute to the fallen in battle,Greek heroes.At the oclock of every hour a small changing ceremony takes place.
Enjoy some free time for shopping or grabbing a bite around then old city (Plaka)

Very informative and interesting route around Athens. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your kind words. It was my pleasure showing you around our beautiful city and looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Lots to see. You can get out and walk around and take pictures at the places. Makes history come alive.
Thank you for your stunning review. It was my absolute pleasure meeting you and looking forward seeing you again soon.
An excellent tour guide, not only on the Athens tour, but we also booked him for transfers to and from the airport and ferry terminal. Always punctual, always easy to reach. He is simply a super nice and likable guy. Highly recommended,👍👍👍
Vielen Dank für Ihre freundlichen Worte. Es war mir ein absolutes Vergnügen, Sie kennenzulernen, und ich freue mich darauf, Sie bald wiederzusehen.
Ted(Theodore) was amazing! So knowledgeable, friendly. He gave us of the background, history and the meaning of all the sites. The food we had for lunch was fabulous! Every aspect of our tour was spectacular! Book Ted and you won’t be disappointed!
I feel honored to receive such a stunning review. It was my absolute pleasure and really looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Ted is a fantastic and personable guide! He adjusted the tour for me to match my physical limitations (I can't climb a lot of stairs) and still made sure that I had a good view of the Acropolis and Parthenon. He's so knowledgeable about Athens. As the tour progresses he pays careful attention to what you particularly enjoy. Then he works that into the tour. For instance, I love street art so he included some great ones along the way. I brought a friend along on the first tour. Halfway through we received a notification that we would have to unexpectedly disembark from our cruise ship that day. Ted immediately went into "Guardian Angel" mode. He helped us find hotel rooms very quickly despite there being two thousand other passengers trying to do the same thing. We were able to arrange a transfer with him to the hotel after we had packed our things while others were waiting for taxis. The next day he did airport transfers for a couple of my friends. I was staying for an extra day in Athens so he suggested a walking tour around Plaka, a beautiful neighbourhood in Athens, along with trying out some food. I'm glad he did because I had a wonderful time! He wasn't done with his "Guardian Angel" mode quite yet. He provided me with an airport transfer the next morning at the same time the taxis in Athens were going on strike. Thank goodness for Ted! The next time I'm in Athens I wouldn't call on anyone else but him for tours or transfers. He's the best. I recommend him 100%. Thanks, Ted! ❤️
WOW! Well that review really made my day and put a huge smile on my face! I am glad I was able to help and I am so happy you enjoyed your time in Athens despite that little hiccup with the cruise ship. Next time you or one of your friends are around, I believe you know who to call!!! Better call Ted 🤣
Had an excellent tour with Ted - he was so knowledgeable and really made the tour one of the highlights of our entire trip - highly recommend!
Thank you for your kind words! It was my pleasure as well. Looking forward to seeing you again in Athens soon!!!
This is by far the best tour in Athens! Very knowledgeable and funny . Ted is excellent! Saw everything on the list plus extras.
Thank you for your kind words! It was my pleasure meeting you and your daughter. Looking forward to seeing you again soon in Athens.
Chris was amazing!!! Super knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations. We saw everything in a timely manner, and had THE BEST souvlaki!! We would definitely recommend this tour to see all of the highlights. Genuinely very authentic and kind people!
Thank you for your kind words! Looking forward to seeing you again soon in Athens.
Ted was a fantastic tour guide/driver. We had a great time in the half day Athens tour. He was personable and knowledgeable about the city. Highly recommend using Ted if you’re in Athens.
Thank you for your kind words! It was my pleasure meeting you and looking forward to seeing you again soon!!!
Ted and his company were recommended to us on our recent trip to Greece by friends who had used his transportation services previously and by MotoGreece who we used for our 11 day motorcycle track across Greece (see separate review). Ted met us at the airport and transported us to our hotel for two nights stay in Athens. We utilized his half-day city tour service the next day to get acquainted with some of the popular attractions around Athens. We saw the changing of the guard and he reserved tickets for us to see the Acropolis & Parthenon. We were able to avoid a tremendously long line thanks to his experience, reserving the tickets in advance. It was a fun day and informative tour spent with Ted and we highly recommend partaking of this experience on your next visit to Athens. We additionally used Ted services for transportation to and from the airport and the ports on our extended holiday. He was always punctual, efficient and greeted us with a smile and a cold bottle of water. Ted has an extensive knowledge of Greece and we highly recommend him for both tours in transportation service .
Thank you first of all for taking the time and writing such an extensive and detailed review. It was my real pleasure meeting you and being able to help you explore Greece and see more of our beautiful country. Looking forward to seeing you again soon, to dive even deeper into Greece!!!
