Daily Itinerary

Day 1

Welcome to Greece! Our driver will be waiting for you to greet you at the airport of Athens at your arrival. You will be driven to the hotel in Athens, the capital of Greece. Athens is the historical capital of Europe, with a long history, dating from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. In the 5th Century BC (the ’Golden Age of Pericles’) – the culmination of Athens’ long and fascinating history – the city’s values and civilization acquired a universal significance. Over the years, a multitude of conquerors occupied Athens and erected unique splendid monuments - a rare historical palimpsest. In 1834, it became the capital of the Modern Greek state and since two centuries, it has become an attractive modern metropolis with unrivalled charm.
