Ateenan yksityiskierros sisältäen Akropoliin ja Plakan
Antiikin kreikkalaiset jättivät Ateenaan muistomerkkien, patsaiden ja esineiden aarreaitan. Tällä yksityiskierroksella tutustut oppaan johdolla kaikkiin tärkeimpiin nähtävyyksiin. Kohokohtiin kuuluvat roomalainen Agora, Hadrianuksen kirjasto, keskiaikainen Plakan kaupunginosa ja Unescon maailmanperintöluettelossa oleva Akropolis. Vassiliki, yksi asiantuntevista paikallisoppaistamme, kertoo: "Akropolis tarkoittaa "korkeaa kaupunkia", ja sillä viitataan yleensä mihin tahansa kukkulan huipulle rakennettuun asutukseen. Kreikassa on monia kaupunkeja, joissa on akropolis, mutta Ateenan akropolis on varmasti niistä tunnetuin."Aloitat opastetulla kierroksella akropoliilla, jonne pääset jonon ohi sisään. Ihaile näkymiä Areiopagilta – kukkulalta, jossa kreikkalaiset jumalat legendan mukaan pitivät hovia. Anna oppaasi herättää historia henkiin, samalla kun ihailet antiikin maamerkkejä, kuten roomalaista agoraa, Dionysoksen teatteria sekä Asklepieionin ja Parthenonin yhä pystyssä olevia pylväitä. Sen jälkeen matka jatkuu Plakaan, joka on pääkaupungin viehättävin ja historiallisin kaupunginosa. Sen mutkittelevat kävelykadut kuhisevat sekä paikallisista ja vierailijoista, ja siellä on lukuisia tavernoita, joiden pöydät levittäytyvät kaduille. Vassiliki sanoo: "Ateenalaiset kutsuvat tätä aluetta "jumalten asuinalueeksi", sillä se on ollut asuttu jo antiikin Kreikan ajoista lähtien. Itse asiassa kaivaukset osoittavat, että alue ei ole juurikaan muuttunut antiikin ajoista."
