ATHENS

Day 1 - 3

Athens is recognised across the world for its incredible history as the birthplace of Ancient Greece and of Western civilization, yet the city has much to offer besides its past. The buzzing and cosmopolitan atmosphere and vibrant cultural scene go hand-in-hand with ancient temples and churches, and visitors will find everything from excellent cuisine, nightlife and shopping to archaeological museums and street art. Of course, no visit to Athens would be complete without a visit to the magnificent hilltop Acropolis, the city's crowning glory.
