This tour is designed for cruise passengers who want to see the main sights of Athens at a comfortable pace.

We begin with a private pickup directly from your cruise ship at Piraeus Port in an air-conditioned vehicle. First stop, the Panathenaic Stadium (Kallimarmaro) an ancient all-marble stadium where the first modern Olympic Games were held in 1896. Later we will enjoy a shaded stroll through the Zappeion Megaron and the National Garden, a tranquil oasis in the city center. When we arrive at the Hadrian's Arch and the Temple of Olympian Zeus we can admire the marvel of ancient and roman temples.

The tour brings us to Plaka, the oldest and most picturesque neighborhood in Athens, nestled right under the shadow of the sacred rock. Here, you will enjoy free time to explore at your own relaxed pace. Wander through the charming pedestrian streets, shop for authentic Greek souvenirs, or sit at a local café to enjoy a traditional lunch with a stunning view of the Acropolis.

No need to worry about taxis, schedules, or missing your departure. Once your free time concludes, your private driver will pick you up directly from Plaka and comfortably transport you to your next destination, whether that is back to your cruise ship, straight to the Athens Airport (ATH), or to your hotel.
