Itinerary

Day 1

Immerse yourself in the captivating dichotomy between the awe-inspiring remnants of a splendid history and the contemporary elegance of modern structures as you explore Athens.

Begin your journey with a visit to the Acropolis, the pinnacle of Ancient Athens' beauty and grandeur. Atop its rocky foundation, discover an array of monuments, including the magnificent Parthenon, the Propylaea, the temple of Athena Nike, and the Erechtheion with its iconic Porch of Maidens.

Continue your exploration with a drive to the Roman Temple of Olympic Zeus, the historic Panathinaikon Stadium (host of the inaugural modern Olympic Games in 1896), and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Constitution Square, where the Parliament House stands. Marvel at the 19th-century government buildings and refined structures.

Travel along Panepistimiou Avenue, taking in the sights of the Catholic Cathedral, the Academy, University, and National Library.

In delightful contrast, conclude your tour with a visit to the new Acropolis Museum, ranked among the top ten museums globally. This architectural marvel offers a comprehensive exhibition showcasing the splendor of Ancient Athens and its Acropolis. Don't miss the chance to enjoy a breathtaking view of the Acropolis from the museum's upper floors, with a special note that the third floor faithfully replicates the Parthenon itself.

Amazing Travel Agency

Anthony and his team did an amazing job organizing our eight day trip to Mykonos and Santorini. They chose two excellent hotels that met our budget, and booked car transport and inter-island ferries for us. He also gave a bunch of great restaurant recommendations and was able to help us book a few last-minute items, including a wine tour! He also had local representatives on each island who we were able to call with random specific asks (e.g., last minute club reservations on Mykonos).

The only thing we'd change is that we wish we had been able to spend even MORE time in Greece! In fact, we're already hoping to take another trip next year, and if we do we'll definitely be using Anthony and team again!

Having worked with other travel agents in other regions who do not do nearly as good a job, we can honestly say we are really happy with our Antelope experience!

Awesome experience.

We had 5 in our family of all ages for our recent trip to Greece. We wanted to see Athens, Mykonos and Santorini. I reached out to Anastasia with our budget and a rough idea of what we wanted to do. I cannot say enough about how helpful she was. She helped arrange the whole trip and everything flowed perfectly. She was also available during the trip to help guide us if we had questions about travel. It was a truly memorable experience without all the stress of when I try to plan trips myself. I wish I could use her for every trip I ever take.
