Top 15 Things To Do in Athens, Greece | 4-Day Itinerary

Welcome to Athens, Greece! In this video, we discover the city's most unmissable attractions including all of the ancient sites, hidden gems, and breath-taking views that Athens has to offer.
We begin with a visit to the iconic Acropolis, where the Erectheion, Propylaea, and Parthenon stand as testaments to ancient glory. We then wander through the Ancient Agora and marvel at the Temple of Hephaestus and the Stoa of Attalos, before heading to the Panathenaic Stadium, the site of the first modern Olympic Games.

Athens is next on our list so this was super helpful. How long would you say you need in Athens to see pretty much everything? Is 3 days enough or are we setting ourselves up to fail 😅

[@AlexTravels1]

Athens is very beautiful! We think if you plan things well and prepare for long days you'll manage to see everything or almost everything in this video in 3 days. We went for 4 days but we did visit the Acropolis twice! 😀
