About the Ride
Your Welcomer will act as your local guide, sharing historical facts, essential information about the sights, and offering their personal insights to fully immerse you in the Athenian lifestyle. The sightseeing ride is completely private and personalised, meaning that, together with your driver, you can decide which suggested stops to include and how long to spend at each one. While there’s a suggested itinerary, you are free to tailor it to suit your preferences.
The Sightseeing Ride can take you to many popular and fascinating stops that visitors always enjoy. First, visit the renowned Acropolis Hill & Museum, where you can admire the iconic Parthenon temple, followed by the modern Acropolis Museum, home to impressive statues and artefacts from ancient Greek civilisation.
Next, you can take a stroll along Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, a pedestrianized road at the base of the Acropolis, where you’ll encounter the ancient Theatre of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. If you continue walking, you can explore the charming areas of Plaka and Monastiraki, developed around the ancient Agora, offering a delightful selection of small shops. The heart of the city beats around Constitution Square, or Syntagma, where both tourists and locals gather. If you’re lucky, you might catch the Change of Guards ceremony. No tour would be complete without visiting the Panathenaic Stadium, also known as Kallimarmaro in Greek.
After exploring central Athens, your driver will take you to the stunning view from Lycabettus Hill, the highest point in modern Athens. Surrounded by pine trees and offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the city, extending all the way to the Port of Piraeus, it’s the perfect spot to snap some fantastic photos and enjoy the scenery.
Before concluding your sightseeing ride, you may choose to visit the impressive Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre or explore the cosmopolitan Athenian Riviera.
At the end of your tour, your friendly Welcome Driver will drop you back at your accommodation.
