Acropolis and Ancient Agora Private Walking Tour In Detail
Please meet your guide and check-in for your experience at our tour office by the Acropolis at Athanasiou Diakou street 16, 11742. or at your hotel (After request), settle your preferable time, and start your walk to the Acropolis. After picking up your skip-the-line entrance tickets with your licensed tour guide, head inside to explore the hilltop archaeological site, the magnificent structure of the Ancient classical times, and the crown of modern Athens city.
Listen as your guide transports you back to ancient Greece with stories of the ancient city and its importance. Stop to admire the magnificent temples, most of which date back to the 5th-century BC, including the much-photographed Parthenon, the restored Temple of Athena Nike, and the Erechtheion, known for its exquisite Caryatid statues.
After exploring the Ancient sights for around two hours, either end your tour at the Acropolis exit on Mars Hill or continue to the Ancient Agora. Discover the grand Agora, once the epicenter of ancient Athens, on a 2-hour tour, visiting monuments such as the beautifully preserved Temple of Hephaestus and the renovated Stoa of Attalos.
Acropolis monuments and Ancient Agora is a private tour, and you can book it under request. The experience of having your private licensed tour guide instead of being in a group tour is a lifetime experience for you and your family.
