About Acropolis
The Acropolis of Athens is among humanity's most extraordinary architectural achievements — the 5th century BC hilltop citadel crowned by the Parthenon, Erechtheion, Temple of Athena Nike and Propylaea stands as the supreme symbol of ancient Greek civilization and UNESCO World Heritage status. The 44km journey from Athens Airport delivers visitors to Athens city center from which the Acropolis is accessible. The hilltop site rises 156 meters above sea level, dominating the Attic skyline and visible from virtually every point in the greater Athens area.
The Parthenon (447-432 BC) dedicated to the goddess Athena was constructed under Pericles during Athens' golden age. The ongoing UNESCO restoration project continues to stabilize and restore the marble columns and architectural elements damaged over two millennia. The Acropolis Museum at the base of the hill houses original sculptures, architectural pieces, and the Caryatids in a stunning modern building (2009) with the Acropolis visible through glass floors. The surrounding Acropolis neighborhood includes the Ancient Agora, Roman Agora, Tower of the Winds, Hadrian's Arch and Temple of Olympian Zeus within walking distance.
Private transfer delivers to hotel addresses in Plaka, Monastiraki, Koukaki or Acropolis-area neighborhoods. Metro Line 2 Red stops at Akropoli station adjacent to the Acropolis Museum entrance, while the Thissio station provides access from the Ancient Agora side. For hotels in the maze of Plaka pedestrian streets, private transfer provides the only door-to-door luggage solution without difficult uphill navigation.
