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.

Trip of a Lifetime

What did we like about Greece? The beauty, the people, the history, archaeology, mythology, the food, hospitality in hotels and restarants, everything!
Anthony from Antelope Travel planned the most wonderful vacation for us to Athens, Delphi and Meteora, Naxos, and Santorini. Everything went so smoothly from hotels, transfers, drivers, and tours. Everyone including drivers, hotel staff, and tour guides were gracious, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make us happy. Antelope Travel is located in Athens and Anthony or representatives from the agency met us and were available in each location, so we felt secure knowing that there were people in Greece to reach out to. We highly recommend this agency to plan a custom trip of a lifetime. We have wanted to visit Greece for many years and were not disappointed. Loving beautiful Greece 🇬🇷 💙 Thank you, Anthony!

Incredible Trip!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Anthony & his entire team from the very start of our planning our vacation to Greece all the way through of traveling back home to Chicago. Anthony & his team ensured our entire trip was seamless. We started in Athens for 24 hours, then to Mykonos for 4 days and then Santorini for 4 days. The planning & attention to detail made the whole trip one of the best travel experiences of our life. Anthony & his team were referred to us by a couple of other friends who had also worked with them for their vacations to Greece over the past few years & we will continue referring Anthony to anyone we know who is traveling to Greece because of our incredible experience!
