Athens private tour, half day/ up to 5 hour, from Athens, Piraeus
Overview
We visit Athens as travelers, not as tourists. We get as excited as you, we love traveling, history, scenery & photography. We love what we do:)
Schedule is flexible, but most importantly we can drive on small roads and you will not just see the sights through a bus window. If you’re short on time but want to see everything that Athens has to offer, take a five-hour tour.
The day starts with convenient pickup from your location and then takes you to the Acropolis Hill, Zeus Temple and many more. You also have the flexibility to explore each attraction independently or add an archaeologist guide at an additional cost.
Do not hesitate to request another pick up or drop off location as Athens International airport. (Distance from Athens 36 km, an extra charge is applicable for Toll Roads, luggage fees & distance).
