The programme

Become an Athenian for a day, experiencing the places that have made the Greek capital a capital of the world for 2500 years.
To begin with,enjoy a panoramic sightseeing drive of the city centre passing by the Panethenaic Stadium, the only one in the world to be made entirely of marble, the national academy and the seat of the Greek parliament on Syntagma Square.
Climb up the Pnyx Hill, where the Athenian assemblies were held in the 5th century BC. The view to the Acropolis from one side and modern Athens to the other, will leave you speechless, but the greatest orators have spoken here, including Aristedes, Demosthenes, Pericles...
Down the hill you'll find the city's other attractions: walk around Athens’ Ancient Agora, the heart of ancient Athens, the core of political and social activity, where everyone crossed paths
In the Monastiraki district a beautiful surprise awaits you: a pita gyros stuffed with meat, vegetables and fries. This is a typical Greek street food, to be enjoyed while walking.
The last stop is the Plaka district, the oldest in the city, among neoclassical buildings, ancient monuments and shops. By the way, the Adrianou and Pandrosou streets are said to be ideal for shopping.
