Guided tour
It was really fun from start to finish. I would definitely recommend to any one who wants to see athens but doesn't necessarily need to be as close to touch and wait in the hot sweaty ques, some times its better to see from a distance the veiws you will see are amazing (even some secret ruins that are not so known to the tourists that are also drapped in history we're amazing to see.) To have a local like Micheal with the knowledge he has was amazing and the scooters were really fun a must do!
Whizz down the streets of Athens effortlessly gliding past iconic landmarks like the Parthenon. An experienced guide will tell you about the city's history while you explore the rich cultural heritage of Athens in an eco-friendly way.
The tour begins at the New Acropolis Museum’s entrance on Dionysiou Aeropagitou pedestrian street. You'll pass by the Ancient Theatre (Odeon) of Herodes Atticus and stop on the slopes of Philopappos Hill, where you can admire archaeological excavations and Saint Demetrios Loumbardiaris church. The ride continues to Thissio and up to the Hill of Nymphs, where you'll see the National Observatory, a neoclassical building created in 1846.
You'll enjoy the panoramic view of the city and descend to Apostolou Pavlov Street. Next, you'll follow the path between the Acropolis Hill and reach the Roman Forum of Athens (Roman Agora). The guide will take you to the neighborhood of Plaka to see traditional houses and to the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates. The tour will end at the Temple of Olympian Zeus.
