Temple of Olympian Zeus
Marvel at the colossal columns of the Temple of Olympian Zeus, one of the largest ancient temples ever built. We will pass by this magnificent site, which looks even more imposing when illuminated under the night sky. A perfect spot for a quick photo as we drive through the heart of the city.

Panathinaiko Stadio
We will make a 10-minute stop at the Panathenaic Stadium (Kallimarmaro), the only stadium in the world built entirely of marble. It is the birthplace of the first modern Olympic Games (1896).

Hellenic Parliament
Watch the ceremonial Changing of the Guards in front of the Hellenic Parliament.

The Academy of Athens
Admire the Athenian Trilogy on Panepistimio Street, consisting of the Academy, the University, and the National Library. These three 19th-century neoclassical masterpieces are architectural gems of the city. Their white marble glow under the night lights creates a majestic atmosphere that perfectly captures the elegance of modern Athens.

Presidential Mansion
Pass by the Presidential Mansion, a stunning neoclassical building that serves as the official residence of the President of the Hellenic Republic. Formerly the Royal Palace, it is guarded by the Evzones and surrounded by beautiful gardens. At night, its architectural details are highlighted by elegant lighting, making it one of the most sophisticated sights in the city.

Mount Lycabettus
Drive to the summit of Lycabettus Hill, the highest point in Athens, for an unforgettable 360-degree view of the sparkling city.
