Itinerary
This tour starts with a visit to the sacred hill of Acropolis. Passing through it's monuments ( the Odeon of Herods Atticus, the temple of Athens Nike, the monumental Prolylaia and the Erechthion) we will end up in front of the Parthenon and enjoy a breathtaking view of the city.
Next we will follow the pedestrian street in front of the Acropolis and visits the famous New Acropolis Museum. An Athenian landmark and feat of contemporary architecture, the Acropolis Museum sits at the base of the Acropolis, with the ruins of an ancient settlement visible through its floor. The collection runs from pre-classical times to the Roman era, but fifth-century BC treasures are the focus, especially the Parthenon Frieze sculptures.
