Athens

As well as the charm of this wondrous city, which is easily discovered on your own, the archaeological sites within the city as well as those within easy reach are plentiful. One can visit and enjoy many excursions, with either private guided tours or group tours. Private tours should be pre-arranged, especially in high season, to attain good guided services. Guides are part of a union so you will find the cost high especially for full day services. Beware of Sunday and Holidays as they charge 50% more than normal weekdays. Private tours can be arranged for any time but know that a full day for most tours is about 6 hours not 8.
