Half Day Tour
of Athens with English Speaking Guide
Athens
The city of the
Olympic Idea and the majestic Acropolis is the
crossroads where east meets west and home to many
cultural and fashion events. From her proud temples to
the music players in the streets, this city displays her
extensive history at every turn. Weave your way from
Constitution Square to the beautiful national monuments
through lush parks surrounded by preserved Corinthian
columns. The new transportation system and pedestrian
promenades efficiently interlace the antiquities, parks
and many areas rich in nightlife like Plaka, Psirri and
Thissio. Tradition, history, and modernity fuse
harmoniously. Athens has become a modern city model that
other European cities wish to emulate, especially after
the 2004 Olympics. The streets have become public art
museums where one can find a sculpture exhibition along
side the ancient outdoor theater of Herodion, where
festivals take place every summer, or a contemporary
photo exhibit in the metro station. The beauty, music,
art and culture and lively nightlife of Athens make
Athenians proud and delighted visitors wish they could
stay longer to experience more. While the visitor is
sure to visit Plaka, there are many other charming areas
of Athens. For example: Psirri, with its boutiques,
enchanting tavernas, cafes and bars; where tiny alleys
hold centuries of stories like the rembetika-filled
nights where the women who inspired the likes of Lord
Byron were coaxed from their balconies. Visit Kolonaki
to shop the designer boutiques at the Acropolis
foothills or have a coffee on the square. Places like
the pine clad Lycabettus hill with its chapel of St.
George offer a panoramic view of the city, are a
visitor's must. The nearby Athens suburbs by the
waterfront are also easy to get to and a delight to
visit. Athens is filled with wondrous sights and
surprises.
