CULTURE and safe tourism all in one

A cultural walk through the safe streets of Athens starts in Plaka through the "old city" with many shops selling from traditional gifts, to designer brands.  Take a break by indulging at one of the local tavernas and appreciate the fresh food and quench your thirst with a local beer or glass of wine.  The walk continues down history lane, leading up to the Acropolis - the home of the ANCIENT Parthenon.  The 360-degree view of the city is breathtaking yet the walk through the National Gardens leading to the Panathenaic Stadium, where lies the home of the modern Olympics and the finish line of the world-renowned Authentic Marathon Race, will give you a feeling of majestic beauty.  The nightlife offers an unparalleled, safe, and nonstop wide array of bars and clubs for everyone!
