1. Day: Athens

Welcome to Greece! Our driver will be waiting for you to greet you at the airport of Athens at your arrival. You will be driven to the hotel in Athens, the capital of Greece. Athens is the historical capital of Europe, with a long history, dating from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. In the 5th Century BC (the “Golden Age of Pericles”) – the culmination of Athens’ long, fascinating history – the city’s values and civilization acquired a universal significance. Over the years, a multitude of conquerors occupied Athens, and erected unique, splendid monuments - a rare historical palimpsest. In 1834, it became the capital of the Modern Greek state and in two centuries since it has become an attractive modern metropolis with unrivalled charm.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Athens & Classical Greece Tour

    Q: Is the entrance to the Acropolis included in the tour? A: Yes, our comprehensive Athens tour covers the entrance fees to the world-famous Acropolis and the Parthenon. We provide "skip-the-line" access where possible, ensuring you spend your time admiring the ancient monuments instead of waiting in long queues.

    Q: How much walking is involved in the Classical Greece tour? A: This tour involves a moderate amount of walking, especially on uphill and uneven terrain at archaeological sites like the Acropolis, Delphi, or Mycenae. We recommend wearing sturdy, comfortable walking shoes. The pace is designed to be steady, with plenty of breaks for photos and historical explanations.

    Q: Will there be an English-speaking professional guide? A: Absolutely. You will be accompanied by a licensed, English-speaking archaeological guide. Our guides are experts in Greek mythology and history, providing deep insights that go far beyond what you would find in a guidebook.

    Q: Is this tour suitable for families and children? A: Yes! The stories of Greek Gods and Heroes are incredibly engaging for children. While the walking can be a bit much for very young toddlers, school-aged children find the sites like the Panathenaic Stadium absolutely fascinating.

    Q: What is the best time of year to take the Classical Greece tour? A: The most pleasant times for exploring ancient sites are Spring (April to June) and Autumn (September to October), when the weather is mild and the crowds are smaller. However, our tours run year-round, and seeing the Parthenon under the bright winter sun is also a unique experience.

    Q: Can I customize my Athens tour or add extra days? A: As Azure Voyage, we specialize in tailor-made experiences. If you wish to extend your stay in Athens or add a cruise to the Greek Islands following your classical tour, our travel consultants will be happy to create a personalized Greece itinerary for you.
