Greece Island Hopping

Welcome to Athens! Athens is the capital city of Greece, known for its rich history and
cultural significance. It is often referred to as the cradle of Western civilization, as it was
the birthplace of democracy, philosophy, and many other elements of classical
civilization. The city is home to iconic landmarks such as the Acropolis, Parthenon, and
various museums that showcase its historical and cultural heritage. On arrival, our local
representative will meet & transfer you to our hotel in Athens. Feel free to explore this
beautiful city on your own during the evenings.

Museum. Our local expert guides will take you to see the Panathenaic Stadium where
