Enjoy a tour of Athens, combining most of the city's modern and classical sights. Drive by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in front of the Parliament House on Constitution Square, the Panathenaikon Stadium (site of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896). See views of the Presidential Palace, government buildings and elegant homes.
Drive along Panepistimiou Avenue and view the Catholic Cathedral, the Academy, the University, National Library and Omonia Square. In contrast, visit the Roman Temple of Olympic Zeus and the crowning beauty of ancient Athens, the Acropolis with its many monuments atop its rocky base, including the Parthenon, Propylaea, Temple of Athena Nike and the Erechteion with its Porch of Maidens.
