15 days in Athens Itinerary

One of the world's most ancient cities, Athens remains Europe's undisputed historical and cultural capital.

Venture out of the city with trips to Nafplio (Peloponnesian Folklore Foundation, Fortress Palamidi, &more), Corinth (Akrokorinthos, Archea Korinthos, &more) and Archaeological Site Mycenae (in Mycenae). And it doesn't end there: take an in-depth tour of Acropolis Museum, take in the awesome beauty at Mount Lycabettus, take a stroll through Monastiraki, and get the lay of the land with Walking tours.
