Ultimate Athens Itinerary: Top Attractions in 1 or 3 Days!

Ultimate Milan Itinerary: Top Attractions in 1 or 3 Days! ”m a tour guide and I want to show you the best way to see all main attractions of Athens, Greece. This Athens itinerary gives you the best experience as it allows you to see the most attractions in the shortest amount of time. In Athens everything is clustered around Acropolis, a rocky hill with temples that were the most important religious centre of ancient Athens. If you stick with my Quick Visit plan, you start early, skip lunch and buy tickets on-line, it is possible to see everything in one very long summer day. The Deep Dive plan allows you to properly explore the sights and you should plan at least 2 or 3 days to see the main attractions of Athens.

I'm going to Athens in two days and wanted to be spontaneous, but I can't! lol So I watched this and it helped me tremendously. Now I can be kind of spontaneous, right?? ;)

Does the combo ticket (for 7 major sites and around €30 or so) include any audio guide? Thx

The real biggest fleamarkets are weekends from before sunrise till 2 in the afternoon in the Ελαιώνας area very close to the blue metroline in the centre of Athens. Πλατεία Αβυσσινιας in monastiraki is the oldest one, and arts and crafts as well as fakes are daily at apostolou pavlou in thission.
