Athens Night Tour

Discover the landmarks in Athens lit up on this night walking tour around Monastiraki Square.

Description

The evening tour of Athens will start at the entrance to Hotel the Dolli. From here, we will begin our tour of Plaka and Monastiraki.

We will visit two historic temples: the Orthodox Church of St. Mary Pantanassa and the Tzistarakis Mosque, admiring their illumination and learning about their histories. One of them has a notable curse.

Behind the mosque are the remains of the ancient library of Hadrian. We will also enjoy views of the Acropolis of Athens, including the illuminated Parthenon, Propylaea, and Erechtheion.

Near the library lies the Cathedral of the Annunciation of St. Mary, a major temple in Plaka. We will also see Hadrian's Arch, dating back to the 2nd century AD. The tour lasts 2.5 hours and concludes at the starting point.
