You arrive in Athens for the first time, you have a lot to do for business, for family, for shopping, but you have to visit the Acropolis at least. This private tour offers you the opportunity to have that visit, guided by an archaeologist who has worked on the site and has an exciting personal story to share. What was the purpose of the Acropolis, what was around it, what was up there before, which buildings were constructed in the 5th century B. C. , the famous "Golden Age of Pericles", why and how, what symbolisms are there and what makes them "classical". Explanatory drawings will bring the monuments alive. Questions are more than welcome to be answered, so that by the time you finish this visit you will have become a little bit wiser :)
• We can meet at the parking area of the Acropolis and start ascending. Don't let the word scare you, it is not at all as bad as it sounds. On the way up we will explain the history and myths of Athens and in a shady spot we will see drawings that will help us understand what we will be seeing in a while. • Just before entering the Acropolis we will see the impressive Odeion of Herodes Atticus. The temple of Athena Nike and the Propylaea come next. Going through them, the Parthenon and the Erechtheion with the Caryatids will be standing in front of you! From up here the panoramic view to the city is amazing. • On our way out we will see the birthplace of theatre, the cradle of democracy, the downtown area of the ancient city and Mar's Hill, which is mentioned in the Bible. Tour can be customized upon request.
