Athens is packed with landmarks steeped in history. Enjoy a guided tour of some of the most important locations in the cradle of democracy, including the Acropolis and the Parthenon.

Kick off with a tour of the city's top sights. Enter the famous old town district, Plaka, and follow the pedestrian zone to the Acropolis. Climb the hill and reward yourself with a spectacular view of Athens. Listen to the detailed descriptions of monuments of the Acropolis and its surrounding landmarks – the Shrine of Dionysus, the Philopappos, the Areopagus and the Agora.

And if you wish, you can visit the award-winning Acropolis Museum. Ever since it opened a decade ago, it has wowed visitors with its collections of thousands of priceless artefacts dating to the fifth century BC.

Excursion avec shopping et visite d'un vignoble à Patras

Nichée entre le golfe de Patras et les montagnes de Panachaiko, la ville de Patras est la plus grande ville du Péloponnèse. Découvrez quelques-uns de ses trésors culturels avec cette excursion et accordez-vous une petite session de shopping au milieu de ses nombreuses attractions commerciales.Vous passez la matinée à explorer cette charmante ville portuaire. Avant de commencer la chasse aux bonnes affaires, vous visitez le pont Rio-Antirrio. Enjambant le golfe de Corinthe, il relie la Grèce continentale à la péninsule du Péloponnèse. Il est même si grand qu'il détient le titre de plus long pont à haubans du monde.Vous organisez ensuite votre temps libre comme bon vous semble. Mangez le midi dans la taverne de votre choix ou faites un peu de shopping. Patras reste traditionnel, sans grands centres commerciaux, mais avec des petits magasins. La balade dans les petites ruelles étroites ponctuées de boutiques est d'autant plus agréable. La visite se termine par la visite d'un domaine viticole, où vous pourrez déguster quatre de leurs vins tout en savourant des en-cas typiques de la région.
