What to expect

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.

Full Day Boat Tour to Zante with Smuggler's Cove
Excursions & day trips

Full Day Boat Tour to Zante with Smuggler's Cove

Pick-up any postcard of Zante and it's likely that Smuggler's Cove sits front and centre on it. Discover the soaring cliffs and shipwreck ruins of this famous bay during a full day boat cruise. Along the way, there'll be plenty of swimming and sunbathing, a stop at the Blue Caves, plus free time to explore the pretty port of Agios Nikolaos. Eleni, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Be prepared to be dazzled by the sea around the Blue Caves, which seems to glow electric blue because the white limestone underneath the waves reflects the sun through the azure water.' The best part of this cruise is that you'll get to catch all of Zante's top coastal bits in one relaxing boat trip. After sailing over from Kyllini Port we'll kick off with a swim stop at dazzling Xigia beach. Sailing by windmills and white cliffs against the turquoise sea, we'll then head for Smuggler's Cove for a photo stop. Back in the 80s, a ship carrying contraband cigarettes ran aground in this chalk-white cove. What's left is a fantastic photo-op - Zante's best-known beach is one of the most photographed spots in the whole of Greece.After pausing to admire the Blue Caves, there's another swim stop at a secluded beach before heading ashore for some free time in the teeny fishing port of Agios Nikolaos. It's a sleepy kind of place with a couple of tempting beaches and one or two tavernas. You'll have free time here to try some meze, or just simply swim and sunbathe before the return cruise.
