This tour gives you an opportunity to observe the striking contrasts that make Athens such a fascinating city. Firstly, the famous Acropolis Hill & Museum where you can admire the elegant temple of the Parthenon and the modern Acropolis Museum that houses impressive statues and artifacts of the ancient Greek civilisation.

Another idea would be to stroll along Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, a pedestrianized street adjacent to the south slope of the Acropolis where you can also admire the ancient Theatre of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. The heart of the city beats around the Constitution Square, in Greek Syntagma, the meeting point for both tourists and locals. If you are lucky, you may witness the Change of Guards ceremony. Your tour will not be complete unless you visit Panathenaic Stadium or Kallimarmaro as Greeks call it.

After exploring downtown Athens, your driver will escort you to the most spectacular viewing point of the Lycabettus Hill, the highest hilltop of modern Athens.

After descending the Lycabettus Hill, your Welcome driver will set course for Cape Sounion, the southern-most tip of the Attica peninsula. Located approximately 65 kilometers outside of the center of Athens, it is a relaxing seaside drive along the western coastline with a view of the Aegean sea. The cosmopolitan town centers of Glyfada, Voula and Vouliagmeni are all buzzing with bars, cafes and seaside restaurants that attract people from all over Athens. The Athenian Riviera is the perfect location for you to have dinner or a cup of coffee while looking out over the Aegean sea and enjoying the Mediterranean sea breeze. It is also home to Vouliagmeni Lake, a must-see geological phenomenon made up of thermal springs and underwater caves leading out to the sea.

Once you have enjoyed your seaside dinner, the coastal drive continues to Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon. Though relatively remote compared to the city center, the majestic Temple of Poseidon is an important landmark with significant historical and cultural value for Athenians.
