Beat the heat by accessing the Acropolis early in the morning with your expert guide on this small-group tour. Meet your guide at the Key Tours office and reach the southern slope of the Acropolis, where you'll admire the Sanctuary of Dionysus and the Theater of Dionysus. Climb the hill that leads to the important site of the Acropolis and have your camera ready to capture photos of the city's historic monuments, including the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Pedestal of Agrippa.
After exploring the Acropolis site and descending the hill, you'll admire important landmarks of the Greek capital, including the Ancient Agora and the National Observatory of Athens. Next, you'll enter and stroll through the city's unique neighborhood, Plaka. Forget the sounds of the city for a while. Stroll through Anafiotika, the highest neighborhood in Plaka, and discover its quiet, picturesque, and mystical corners with your guide. Stroll through the countless alleys and admire the old whitewashed mansions, with their imposing carved wooden or iron doors and colorful painted shutters. Discover hidden gems of unspoiled beauty and magnificent views, and uncover secrets unknown even to many Athenians.
After a while, you'll reach the Baths of the Winds, the only public bath in Athens that survives to this day. Dating back to the first period of Turkish rule (1453–1669), it's located near the Roman Forum and the Tower of the Winds. Passing the Roman Forum, the Fethiye Mosque Museum, and Hadrian's Library, you'll reach Monastiraki Square, perhaps the oldest surviving square in the city.
After your tour, you can visit the flea market, one of the best places to buy just about anything, or continue walking and enjoy lunch or coffee in one of the quaint little shops, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Notes: If you select the no entrance fees option:
