Enjoy a tour of Athens, combining many of the city’s principal modern and classical sights. This tour includes an overview of the modern city and striking contrasts to the remains of its glorious past. Drive by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in front of the Parliament House on Constitution Square, the Panathenian Stadium (site of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896). See vistas of the Presidential Palace (ex Royal Palace), government buildings and elegant homes. Drive along Panepistimiou Avenue and view the Catholic Cathedral, the Academy, University, National Library and Omonia Square. In contrast, we visit the Roman Temple of Olympian Zeus and the crowning beauty and glory that was Athens, the Acropolis with its many monuments atop its rocky base, including the awesome Parthenon, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike and the Erechtheion with its Porch of Maidens. We also visit the Acropolis Museum.

Comment by Cathy J, Stone Mountain, GA— Athens Sightseeing on 15 February 2008:
It was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC.
This was our second tour with Mediterranean Travel (Athens Sightseeing in February, 2007), and we plan on touring with Mediterranean Travel every year.
We’ve toured with other tour companies in the past, but in our view Mediterranean Travel is superior to both. The guide in Greece - Spyros - was perhaps the best guide we ever had. As a matter of fact we’re already thinking about our Spring, 2008 vacation in Greece with Mediterranean Travel, and our desire would be to somehow tour with Spyros again.
