We start our walking tour at Syntagma Square ("Constitution Square"), which is the central square of Athens. The square is named after the Constitution that Otto, the first King of Greece, was obliged to grant after a popular and military uprising on September 3, 1843. It is located in front of the 19th-century Old Royal Palace, housing the Greek Parliament since 1934.
Highlight: Gleaming with white marble and beautiful statues, the square is a magnet for people, locals and tourists.

Monument to the Unknown Soldier
20 min
We cross the street towards the Parliament to see the Changing of the Guards:
The changing of the guards takes place every hour by the military unit whose members, Evzones, stand proudly in perfect stillness in front of the Parliament.
The Evzones are a special unit of the Hellenic Army, also known as Tsoliades, whose role is to guard the Monument of the Unknown Soldier, a war memorial located in front of the Parliament, dedicated to Greek soldiers killed during wars.

We continue our walking tour, on Ermou street.
Ermou Street ("Hermes Street") is one of the first roads designed in modern Athens and one of the main arteries of Athens' first town plan. Thanks to this fact, we can still admire numerous neoclassical buildings while crossing Ermou Street. Nowadays, it is a base for shopping, cafes and hotels.

Then Mnisikleous street, with its famous “stairs”, introduces us to the neighborhood of Plaka.
Strolling among its labyrinth streets, we will explore Plaka’s hidden squares, marvel at the elegant architecture of the surrounding buildings and small chapels and witness the charm and alluring ambiance of the oldest neighborhood in Athens.
Highlights:
Plaka has rightfully gained its nickname as the “Neighborhood of the Gods” as it’s built for the large part on top of the ancient city of Athens and it’s nestled right below the Acropolis among several monuments that still glow with the city’s erstwhile glory.
End of our walking tour:
We end the walking tour right in the heart of Plaka leaving you in the perfect place to continue exploring the glorious city of Athens and delving into the local culture. Here you can admire impressive architecture, visit world-class museums or archaeological sites, and enjoy high-end gastronomy…
