Athens
— 5 nights

The Birthplace of Democracy
One of the world's most ancient cities, Athens remains Europe's undisputed historical and cultural capital.Step out of the city life by going to Glyfada Beach and Seaarrow. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Temple of Hephaestus and Panathenaic Stadium. Venture out of the city with trips to Vouliagmeni (Vouliagmeni Beach & Astir Beach) and Temple of Poseidon (in Sounio). And it doesn't end there: take a stroll through Plaka, contemplate the long history of Ancient Agora of Athens, explore the ancient world of Temple of Olympian Zeus, and kick back and relax at Voula Beach.
