Mythology Tour of Athens & the Acropolis with a Private Expert Licensed Guide (opens in a new tab)

60 2 h

The Mythological world inhabited by the Ancient Greeks was not one of the fairytales, but one filled with a pantheon of real Gods, who it was possible to talk to, summon up, or just meet by chance when they visited the mortal world. Bad or good decisions could lead to punishments like transformation into animals, or bestow fortune such as victory in battle. Multi-headed Hydras inhabited lakes, Centaurs lived in dark mountain caves, Griffins flew the skies, and the islands surrounding Athens were full of beasts with special powers, from Minotaur's and Sirens. No wonder the mythology of the ancient world formed part of everyday life for local Athenians who carved these beliefs into every monument for us to see today. Flexible booking options are also available to let you include: Acropolis Admission Tickets; A tour at the 'Golden-Light-Hour'; Traditional Food Tasting (lunch equivalent); or an Extended Tour of either the Acropolis Museum or Ancient Agora.
