Athen og Akropolis højdepunkter - Arkeolog ledet privat tur





Beskrivelse
Vores fuldt privat tur besøger alle de antikke højdepunkter, herunder Akropolis, Zeus tempel, Hadrians bue, Olympic Stadium, Parlamentet & ændring af vagterne og ledes af en ekspert stat licenseret arkæologisk guide. Ud over de antikke højdepunkter som Parthenon, vil du trække på den lokale viden af vores guide, der vil fremhæve utallige perler fra 1000 år gamle byzantinske kirker til romerske badehuse, skjulte lokale caféer og små fornøjelser, der ellers ville blive savnet af store gruppe upersonlige ture. Fleksible muligheder tillader også at udvide din tur til andre store steder, og en luksus køretøj mulighed gør det muligt for dem mindre mobile og som foretrækker en problemfri "dør til dør" afhentning fra Hotel eller Cruise Port.

MØD VORES VEJLEDER. Vejlederen venter på 7 Makrygianni Street ved metrostationen i Akropolis, der ligger lige om hjørnet fra Akropolis hovedindgang. Vores mødested giver et ideelt perspektiv, hvorfra du kan se den omkringliggende mur af Akropolis bygget af den tidligere mykenske civilisation og for at give dig en introduktion til Akropolisens historie, dens betydning og rolle i det gamle Grækenlands liv, og en oversigt over de templer og fantastiske monumenter, du er ved at se. VEHICLE OPTION: Hvis du vælger dette valg, vil din chauffør være på dit krydstogtskibs landingssted, hotel reception eller anden Athen adresse (venligst angiv dette efter booking)
AKROPOLIS OG ALLE DENS TEMPLER OG MONUMENTER. Vores dag begynder med Akropolis, fokus for livet i oldtidens Athen og omgivet af sin fantastiske cyklopæiske 'mur', ' bygget af mykenerne tusinder af år siden. Akropolis er hjemsted for Parthenon, men også mange andre fantastiske monumenter. Du vil først komme ind gennem den gigantiske 'Propylaia', bag hvilken der engang stod en guldbelagt statue af gudinden Athena. Du vil også se Athena Nike Temple (eller 'Viktory') fra 420 f.Kr. før andre vigtige steder som den mytiske Erechtheion, unik i sin konstruktion med sine ikoniske statuer af karyatiderne, og verdens ældste teater af Dionysus fra det 6. århundrede f.Kr., som ville have set de allerførste forestillinger af gamle skuespil af Sophocles og Euripides blandt andre. Det imponerende og fuldt renoverede romerske teater, Herodius Atticus, afsluttet i år 161, også på stedet, blev dedikeret til konen af en rig velgørenhed og stadig vært for et pulserende offentligt sommerprogram.
PARTHENONEN. Parthenon betragtes i vid udstrækning som et mesterværk af videnskab, teknik og kultur, og var dedikeret til gudinden Athena og ville oprindeligt have huset hendes imponerende statue. Dens dekorative skulpturer betragtes som nogle af de høje punkter i klassisk græsk kunst, hvoraf nogle kan ses i det nærliggende museum.
AKROPOLIS-MUSEET. Et statligt kunstmuseum omhyggeligt bygget over udgravninger, der afslørede historiske lag fra romerske huse til byzantinske kirker. Passerer museet, din guide vil passere gennem disse rester, som bringer til live historien bogstaveligt under dine fødder under turen
OLYMPISKE ZEUS TEMPEL. Dette kolossale tempel i centrum af Athen var dedikeret til guden Zeus, hovedet for de olympiske guder. Bygningen begyndte i det 6. århundrede f.Kr. og templet var hjemsted for en rigt prydet statue, et af de syv vidundere i den gamle verden.
HADRIANS ARK. Klassisk triumfbue bygget af de gamle athenere til den romerske kejser Hadrianus & set sammen med Zeus tempel på samme sted
PANATHENAIC STADION. Også kaldet 'Kallimarmaro' stadion er en af højdepunkterne i Athen, hvor den klassiske Marathon slutter & det eneste stadion i verden bygget helt af marmor
ZAPPION HALL. Dette ikoniske landemærke i National Gardens og blev oprindeligt bygget som den allerførste olympiske landsby i begyndelsen af de moderne olympiske lege. Det har en fascinerende historie gennem udviklingen af moderne Athen & også engang tjente som en sporvogn hub i det 19. århundrede.
ATHENS NATIONAL GARDENS. Oprindeligt udlagt som en Royal Gardens i det 19. århundrede denne grønne og skyggefulde oase forbinder mange af byens højdepunkter, og inde i dens mølende stier er mange små glæder fra springvand, biblioteker, gamle ruiner og endda en zoo.
ÆNDRING AF VAGDER & GROBEN AF DEN UKENDTE SOLDAT. Beskyttet af de imponerende evzones, kan du tage billeder med dem (en ad gangen), og hvis turen tilfældigvis rammer dette sted på timen, så vil du også se den imponerende skift ceremoni.
DET GRÆSKE PARLAMENT. Center for regeringen og engang et kongeligt palads med betydning i den seneste historie i det moderne Grækenland og dominerende pladsen over hovedpladsen i Athen.
SYNTAGMA-PLADSEN. Hovedpladsen i Athen huser det græske parlamentsbygning og fokuserer på meget af det athenske liv og politik. I begyndelsen af den fodgængerbaserede shopping gennemgang og med mange andre markeder og attraktioner i nem gåtur, er dette det ideelle sted at afslutte din tur for en pause, før du fortsætter din dag.

We had an amazing all day tour to the Acropolis and Temple of Posideon with private tour guides and lunch. It was an amazing day! Our driver Petros took us to a couple other areas and even had us stop to grab a coffee before our long drive out to the Temple. Great information, easy to work with, lunch was so good and fresh. 10/10 recommend!! Hot tip : have them pre purchase your tickets, it made the whole day flow much easier

Alex our driver and guide was fantastic, super helpful and very attentive. He met us at the cruise port right on time, answered all questions, even the silly ones and was so eager to share his knowledge of Athens, the sights and history. We saw so many sights, beat the bulk of the lines at the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum and then had a lovely and super tasty lunch at a little coastal restaurant near Poseidon's Temple. If you want to make the most of a day in Athens, this tour will make that happen.

We had one full day to see all the important sites in Athens and this was the way to go! Andreas was professional, interesting, educated, and we got a real sense of day to day life in Athens, not to mention a good historical perspective. He drove safely in a beautiful comfortable car, stopped for lunch at a place he spent his youth near, and was prompt and responsive to any other questions or times we wanted to stop for a viewpoint. I misunderstood the quality and dollar amount "stipend" that lunch included, I would have tried more things on the menu. Also it appeared that this was a place that a bus tour could and did stop, and we would have appreciated and paid for something more private and upscale. Nevertheless, it was a great sunny day and wonderful way to see Athens. Good communication before the excursion also, which always helps. Would recommend!

This was a great way to see Athens, and our driver, Alex was very friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us great history before each stop. Betty was the private guide at the Acropolis and she was fantastic!! But the drive to Sounion was too much. 4.5 hours extra in the car just to see Poseidon didn’t seem necessary, after doing it. That’s no one’s fault. , but it was a lot of boring time driving home with nothing to see.
Dear Nicole, We are very happy you enjoyed your tour with us. Regards the trip to the Temple of Poseidon, the drive there of around an hour is usually seen as a nice balance after all of the Athens sites and can easily be described as one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in Europe with time for your driver to explain a lot of the local mythology of the Temple. The temple itself can also be easily described as a jaw dropping site with many coming from across the world for only this site. Of course this is always a subjective opinion and we understand that not everyone may enjoy the drive, although we do consider it a highlight of the tour overall. We wish that you enjoy the rest of your time here in Greece and thank you again so much for booking with us :)
Great way to see Athens highlights in a day. Alex was our driver and provided great history and facts as we approached each site. Betty was our private guide at the Acropolis and Museum, and was also incredibly knowledgeable, had wonderful graphics with her and kept us moving around the crowds. I highly recommend going first thing in the morning to avoid the larger cruise ship crowds, if you’re able (we had a 7:30am pickup for the 8am opening and it was perfect). We enjoyed the changing of the guard and other stops around Athens, the headed down the coast for lunch in Sounion and visiting the Temple of Poseidon. It was stunning! Just be prepared for 4+ hours in the car, round trip, if you add this on. It was a gorgeous day for it though.
Your wonderful review was really nice for all of us to read. Thank you so much for choosing us for your tour! We hope to see you back again in the future. Best Wishes from all of us at Warmpenguin Tours
Andreus was very knowledgeable and we were so thankful we started with the Temple of Poseidon and did the Acropolis last. He truly knows Athens and it made for a great day!
