This private tour offers you access to one of the most important historical sites in Europe with a private tour guide, where you will visit all major monuments and learn about their rich history where democracy was born.

Your guide will explain the central role these monuments, and more, played in, and immerse you in the myths and legends of Ancient Greece. Your tour will also take you to the spectacular New Acropolis Museum, where you’ll have the chance to get up close and personal with the artistic wonders that once adorned the monuments of the Acropolis. When your tour ends, you can stay in the museum to explore at your own leisure.
