ANCIENT ATHENS
Stroll along the most popular places in Athens
where all the famous Greeks like Socrates, Plato,
Aristotle and Alexander the Great used to walk
First we visit the district of Plaka where the upper class Athenians used to set memorials of their
victories in the theatrical drama contests. As we walk we learn about their daily life and details
regarding their habits and customs. Admire the theatre of Dionysus where the lower class
Athenians used to wait in the queue in order to enter free of charge and watch
tragedies/comedies of famous authors. Let the Parthenon catch your eye; the masterpiece
of the Greek classical architecture and later on we climb up to Areus Pagus Hill.
Then we visit Irakleidon museum where we have the chance to admire the technological
achievements of the Ancient Greeks.
We combine our experience with a coffee break against the amazing view of the Acropolis.
We visit also the Prison of Socrates and relive the last days and moments of the famous
philosopher’s life.
Finally, we have lunch at the nearby traditional district of Thissio (optional) where we have
