10 DAYS ATHENS | NAXOS | PAROS | SANTORINI - GREECE

Small group

Enjoy a tour of the city including the Parthenon, Constitution Square and the Panathenean Stadium, the place from where the Olympic flame starts its journey to the cities of the Olympic Games. Begin your Cycladic Island hopping with Paros, a beloved holiday destination, beaches, villages and a 6th century church, Panayia Ekatontapyliani, also called Katapoliani. The name “Ekatontapyliani” means the church with 100 gates (“Ekato Pyles” in Greek), one of which is a secret one!

Next find yourself in the largest and greenest Cycladic Island of Naxos, with beautiful old churches, monasteries, Venetian castles and crystal clear waters. Sail away to Santorini, legend of the lost city of Atlantis, with stunning sunsets and picturesque sugar cubed buildings.

ATHENS

Ancient yet modern, classic yet creative, traditional yet constantly changing… Athens is a city of memorable contrasts. The past and the present of Athens unfolds before your eyes while we drive around the city's highlight spots and monuments like the Temple of Zeus, the Old Stadium, Syntagma square, the Parliament and the Tomb to the Unknown soldier, the Academy, the Library, and the National Gardens. On the natural fortress of the Acropolis, reinforced by the hand of man, stand the Propylaea, the temple of the Winged Victory, Erechtheion with the Porch of the Caryatids and, towering over all, and the majestic Parthenon.  A winding path leads to the treasure of antiquity. Visible are the relics of the civilization of which we are the proud inheritors.  A few meters away from the Acropolis entrance and the Ancient Theatre of Dionysos, the New Acropolis Museum, built on pedestrian walkway of Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, looks like hanging between the past and the present of Athens. 

Designed by Bernard Tschumi and Mihalis Fotiades, the new Acropolis Museum has a total area of 25,000 square meters, with exhibition space of over 14,000 square meters. Made of stainless steel, glass, marble and concrete, materials typical of the Athenian environment, the new museum has a direct view of the Acropolis. With bioclimatic planning, which gives ideal lighting and heating conditions, the New Museum offers all the amenities expected in an international museum of the 21st century. Overnight Athens
