Visit the Parthenon and learn about ancient Greek culture
Prepare for a small-group tour of the Acropolis with skip-the-line tickets for quick access. Meet an expert local guide near the entrance. Skip the queues and see how Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman influences shaped the city. Visit the Parthenon, Propylaia, Erechtheion, and Temple of Athena Nike to learn key aspects of ancient Greek culture. Get a clear view of modern Athens and understand its development over nearly 3,000 years. Hear about myths, festivals, and important events linked to Athens. Afterward, either stay on the hill or follow the guide to the south exit to see the Altar of Asclepius and the Theater of Dionysus, the birthplace of classical drama.
