Construction began in the 6th century BC during the rule of the Athenian tyrants, who envisaged building the greatest temple in the ancient world, but it was not completed until the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century AD, some 638 years after the project had begun. During the Roman period the temple -that included 104 colossal columns- was renowned as the largest temple in Greece and housed one of the largest cult statues in the ancient world.

    The Perfect Day in Athens

    We booked the tour and the communication was amazing. We had taken a cruise and I scheduled the pick up for 10 am at the cruise port. The driver was right on time with a beautiful van and cold bottled water. We had emailed in advance and I found out I could hire a guide for an additional fee to accompany us into the Acropolis Museum and the Acropolis etc. THIS WAS THE BEST DECISION!!! The guide was unbelievable. He provided so much history and stories and you could tell he loved what he did. Not to mention that he took wonderful pictures of us at all of the sites and he knew just where we should stand etc. The pictures I included he took and the day we were at the Acropolis there were 5 ships in port and it was packed and yet we looked like we were alone. He timed the entire day perfectly and we only waited 4 min until the changing of the guards which was so interesting. I honestly can't say enough. I have taken hundreds of tours and this was in my top 10 for sure. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

    Excelent option for a cruise full day tour discovering Athens

    After much searching for a value vs quality tour with good reviews, we decided for this option. It was great, our driver was excellent, was on time, sharp and very nice. The van was new and in great condition. We were wondering if an additional guide was needed, but really there is no need to unless you really want to pay for one. The driver has a lot of knowledge and manages time and requests very well.

    Wonderful introduction to highlights of Athens

    Dionysis met us at the cruise ship terminal with a very nice MB van, then drove us around Athens for a full day tour of the highlights and dropped us at our hotel at the end. He arranged for a wonderful guide, Maria, and was quite willing to adjust our stops according to our interests. We lingered longer in some places, and changed our museum stop in order to see the National Archeological Museum. It was a busy Sunday, but he knew how to get us close to the areas that might get crowded, and we visited the hottest areas early in the day. We had a wonderful overview of the city and looked forward to joining him again the next day for a half day tour outside of the city. We have used private cars and guides to tour in other cities, and working with Dionysis to plan our time in Athens was one of the best experiences I have encountered. I highly recommend Tours of Athens.

    Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.

    How much does Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $71 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.

    Is Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Wonders Of Athens Private Full Day Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Athens?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Athens?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Athens?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
