Overview

This four-day Athens package pairs the city's most iconic sightseeing with five-star comfort. You arrive into Athens International and transfer privately to your 5-star hotel before joining the Athens Night Out on the same evening — a panoramic city drive, a stop to see the Acropolis under floodlights, and a seated dinner in a Plaka taverna with live Greek folk music and traditional dance (operates Tue/Thu/Sat, 20:15–00:30). Day two is the half-day Athens City Tour: Constitution Square, Hadrian's Arch, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Panathenaic Stadium, Acropolis Hill and the Parthenon, and the New Acropolis Museum. Day three is yours — the rooftop pool, the hotel spa, Monastiraki, or the optional full-day Saronic Gulf cruise to Aegina, Poros, and Hydra (paid separately). Day four is a private airport transfer. Pricing is valid 1 June – 31 October 2026.
