  • Temple of Olympian Zeus, Athens, Greece
    The temple of Olympian Zeus is one of the most ancient ones since here was the place of worship of Zeus from the beginning of history. Peisistratus the tyrant, wanted to construct a majestic temple around the end of the 6th Century BC, but in the meantime, the tyranny fell from power and his plans were canceled by democratic Athens. A century later, the Peisistratus' regime was so much hated by the democratic Athenians that they didn't want to complete a work that reminded them of his tyranny. Therefore, this material was used to build the Themistocleian walls.Finally, the Roman Emperor Hadrian completed the temple about 700 years after Peisistratus had raised the first immense columns 7 feet 10 inches in diameter. The temple was inaugurated at 121 A.D. The 104 Corinthian marble columns of the Roman sanctuary were a third smaller, Though still the largest in Europe, as was the temple itself, 354 by 135 feet.

All of the positive reviews I read before the trip are correct. We had a great half-day (5 hours actually) tour of Athens, which is exactly what we needed for our two-night stopover. Our driver Socrates was perfect. He is very kind, humble, informative, and customer-focused. We can't say enough good things about him. We saw the key sights that we wanted, and Socrates was always flexible enough to make changes if required. 100% recommended.

This was a great way to beat the heat during the heat wave and see a lot of Athens. We didn’t feel like we missed anything. Alex was so much fun, he really made the trip so much better. We definitely recommend this tour and ask for Alex. You won’t regret it!

The guy who gave us the tour made extra stops that were not in the itinerary. He explained the history of different things and had visuals, i.e a map, photos. He got us tickets for the Acropolis before the tour which really helped. Along with that, he gave us postcards and a book about the stops we were making.
