Meet your group in Athens where your adventure will begin. Athens was the great hub of art and philosophy in antiquity, and that legacy endures to this day. This city is a dream for a history buff. We shall visit the Acropolis, a shining citadel on a hill containing the Parthenon, one of the greatest buildings on earth.

Then we have the energy and excitement of modern Athens to enjoy, centred in Gazi – where you can enjoy bustling nightlife.
