And off we go – it’s time to start exploring the city! During our leisurely tour we make short stops at all the major sights in the historic centre of Athens such as the National Observatory, the ancient cemetery and pottery quarter (Kerameikos), the Thission district, the Greek and Roman Agora and the Orthodox Cathedral of Athens.
A beautiful ride through the picturesque old town of Plaka is also on the programme. We continue to the Presidential Palace where we experience the ceremonial guard. We cycle on through the maze of paths in the National Garden to the Panathenaic Stadium, where the first modern Olympic Games were held. Finally, we ride past the Zappeion back to the starting point of the tour.
With wit and charm, the guide reveals the secrets of the metropolis. There is plenty of time to enjoy the places visited along the way, to savour the views, and to take beautiful pictures.
