Athens City Tour with Spanish-Speaking Guide

Start your tour with a pickup from your central Athens hotel, and then head off on your 3.5-hour sightseeing tour with your Spanish-speaking guide. Pass the must-see Tomb of the Unknown Soldier that stands in front of Parliament House on Constitution Square, and see the Presidential Mansion that served as the Royal Palace before the country’s monarchy was abolished in 1974.

Watch out for Panathenian Stadium, site of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896, and then relax as your coach drives along Panespistimiou, home to Athens’ National Library and the Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens, known locally as Mitropoli.

After seeing the highlights of modern Athens, you’ll step back in time with a tour of Athens’ past. Pass by the majestic Temple of Olympian Zeus and then stop at Athens’ star attraction, the incredible Acropolis of Athens. Built on a rocky hill towering above the city, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Acropolis is a cluster of ancient buildings that acted as a fortress, all reflecting the splendor and wealth of Athens during the 5th century BC. Highlights of the Acropolis includes the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Areopagus, the theater of Dionysus, the Propylaea and the Temple of Athena Nike, built to represent Athens’ ambition to be the leading Greek city. After spending time at leisure here, you’ll make your way back to your starting point by coach.
