Athens: Guided City Walking Tour
About this experience
Join a walking tour of the UNESCO-listed Acropolis of Athens. Begin early to avoid crowds and see key sites like the Parthenon, Erechtheion, and the Acropolis Museum, followed by a walk through the narrow streets of Plaka, Athens’ Old Town.
Meet your guide early to start your tour of the Acropolis before it gets too hot. Pass the Theatre of Dionysus on the south slope as you head up to see the ancient structures.
See the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Pedestal of Agrippa while your guide explains the history of the site.
Then, go downhill to view the Ancient Agora and the National Observatory of Athens as you walk. Navigate the cobblestone streets of Plaka and find areas less known even to locals.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
