See Athens Through Local Eyes

Uncover the rich history and hidden gems of the Acropolis with insights from expert local authors. This self-guided tour is packed with thoroughly researched stories, blending historical facts with lesser-known details to make your visit both engaging and informative.

Insider Tip:

When standing before the Parthenon, take a closer look at its columns. They feature a subtle curvature known as entasis, an ancient architectural illusion designed to make them appear straight. To fully appreciate this effect, view the columns from different distances—near and far—and notice how their shape subtly changes before your eyes!

The location

There is no meeting point.

The audio tour is designed to begin at the Side Acropolis entrance from the south-east slopes of the hill (Thrasillou, Athens, 105 58).

The easiest way to get there is from the Acropolis metro station (Red Line).
