Come chase gods and heroes! This is a golden opportunity for families to explore the true roots of Greek mythology with a unique activity tour.

You’ll visit the city’s most significant sites: the Acropolis (including the Parthenon, the Theater of Dionysus, the Temple of Athena Nike and the Erechtheion) and the Hill of Pnyx (birthplace of democracy and a hangout spot for nymphs and muses), while learning about Greek gods and heroes in a fun and engaging way. Your guide will lead you in a group family activity that's based on the gods and heroes you've been hearing about, allowing all the family to interact imaginatively with the special surroundings.

At the end of the guided tour, not only will you understand what made Athens and its Gods immortal and legendary, you'll also get to take back home a piece of history you'll create together as a family.
