MEETING OUR GUIDE. Your guide will be waiting at the Arch of Hadrian to meet you at your chosen time which is opposite the impressive Temple of Zeus (not entered) and you will start with the stories & myths surrounding Zeus and his influence on the citizens of Athens. Dedicated to Zeus head of the Olympian Gods, this colossal Temple pre-dates the Acropolis and is the largest ever constructed and home to one of the wonders of the ancient world; a gigantic statue of Zeus seated on a throne over 12 meters tall and encrusted with gold, ivory & Jewels. At the golden sandals of the god sat an olive oil reservoir that reflected on the statue making it appear that the god would rise up and lift of the temple roof. One can only imagine the impact it had on the visitors of the day over 2500 years before!
15 minMost sacred site of Ancient Greece and crowned by the pinnacle of Classical Greece, the Parthenon which was richly decorated with the struggles of the gods, and the focus of the largest Athenian celebrations to the Goddess Athena. A short distance away lies the Erechtheion Temple, dedicated to both the God Poseidon and Goddess Athena who battled for the patronage of Athens. Learn of their competition, uncover the riddles of the Parthenon, the events behind the myths and the relevance of these monuments both then and now in the lives of Athenians.

Pass by, no stopOPTION TO INCLUDE ACROPOLIS TICKETS If you have selected this booking option, your guide will have your dated and timed entry tickets ready for you. You need do nothing more.
Pass by, no stopADDITIONAL BOOKING OPTION: ACROPOLIS 'GOLDEN-HOUR'. A shorter 90 Minute Private Tour focusing on the special sunlight effects on the Acropolis during the afternoon hours.
Pass by, no stopADDITIONAL BOOKING OPTIONS: MYTHOLOGY TAILORED 3hr. If choosing this option your tour still includes the Acropolis but is extended to include a visit to one other site of your choice: a) The Ancient Agora Archaeological Site. The epicentre of Ancient Greek life in the city, this is where the Athenians came to meet, trade and discuss the politics of the day; where Philosophers such as Plato spoke, where democracy itself was founded by the citizens and where many of the most important temples and dedications to the gods were made; b) the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the largest Greek Temple of the Ancient world which was home to one of the wonders of the Ancient World; c) The Acropolis Museum, a state of the Art museum built to house the best of the finds from the nearby Acropolis along with various models, interactive exhibits and masterpieces of clasical Greece; d) The Plaka Neighbourhood, which is a mix of ancient and new, from 1000 year old Byzantine churches to charming local markets.
Pass by, no stopThe Mythological world inhabited by the Ancient Greeks was not one of the fairytales, but one filled with a pantheon of real Gods, who it was possible to talk to, summon up, or just meet by chance when they visited the mortal world.
Bad or good decisions could lead to punishments like transformation into animals, or bestow fortune such as victory in battle. Multi-headed Hydras inhabited lakes, Centaurs lived in dark mountain caves, Griffins flew the skies, and the islands surrounding Athens were full of beasts with special powers, from Minotaur's and Sirens. No wonder the mythology of the ancient world formed part of everyday life for local Athenians who carved these beliefs into every monument for us to see today.
Flexible booking options are also available to let you include: Acropolis Admission Tickets; A tour at the 'Golden-Light-Hour'; Traditional Food Tasting (lunch equivalent); or an Extended Tour of either the Acropolis Museum or Ancient Agora. Fully Family Friendly!
