Square (Syntagma).

On the Acropolis, we will visit the Architectural Masterpieces of the Golden Age of Athens: The Propylaea,

the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion and finally “the harmony between material and spirit”, the

The first stop is the island of Poros, the smallest of the 3 islands you’ll visit on the tour. It’s separated

shelter for pirates. From the open decks, marvel at the dramatic landscapes of this island.
