The origins of Athens can be traced back to a magical time when gods came down to the earth from their royal palace on mount Olympus in order to get married to mortals and competed among them over who would give the city the best gift and win the dominion.
Mysteries and intricate questions are delved into: how many Pythias were there ? why did athletes compete naked ? was Socrates really bullied by his wife ?
The thread of the history of Athens is unwound and touches the controversial character of the modern Greeks ,who take pride on breaking the smoking ban
That and many more ,can satisfy the curiosity of the most demanding visitors.
I am more than happy to share my knowledge of the Greek history and culture with our international friends!
Elena is very inclusive and the group really got on well because of this! Great information.
Elena was extremely knowledgeable and the tour was very interesting. We especially appreciated that she did it on Easter. I highly recommend her tour!
