ITINERARY:

From the port of Piraeus, our shore excursion will head to Athens by bus. The first stop is the Panathenaic Stadium, or Kalimarmaro. From here we’ll have a brief stop admire the Arch of Hadrian.

We’ll continue with our shore excursion of downtown Athens at Syntagma Square. Here we’ll see the Old Royal Palace, which is now home to the Greek Parliament.

Jumping back on the bus, we’ll set off for the Acropolis. At this iconic citadel, we’ll dive into the history of ancient Greece. Discover the Temple of Athena, the Parthenon and the Erechthion.

Before returning to port, we’ll stop in the old historic neighbourhood of Plaka. Situated at bottom of the Acropolis hill, this neighbourhood is characterised by its quaint narrow streets, traditional tavernas and workshops. A charming place to end our Athens shore excursion and perhaps pick up a souvenir or two.
