Leaving the Port of Piraeus, we reach Athen’s city center on a 20-minute drive. Photo-stop at the Panathenaic Stadium, where the first Olympic Games of modern times were held in 1896 and the only stadium in the world built entirely of marble.
We continue to the Hellenic Parliament (ex-Royal Palace) guarded by the Presidential guards, the famous Evzones. Short stop to admire and take pictures with the Presidential Guards. Our panoramic tour continues as we pass by the National Library build in 1832, the Academy of Arts and the National University of Athens.
