1-day itinerary Percy Jackson Mythology Trip

  • Itinerary

Get ready to experience a day in Athens full of adventure! Discover the sacred hill of the Acropolis, the treasures of the Acropolis Museum and the Temple of Poseidon in Sounion in one day.

Morning: Acropolis and Acropolis Museum

the most ancient temples to the gods, in the middle of Athens…” – Percy Jackson

Our family-friendly guide trained in Percy Jackson will meet you at your hotel after breakfast and guide you to the sacred hill of the Acropolis. As soon as you climb up the hill, you will be astonished by the magnificent views of the Parthenon. This temple was constructed in the so-called Ancient Golden Age and dedicated to the Olympian Goddess Athena, the city’s patron deity. Our guide will tell you myths and stories related to the Acropolis and keep your kids captivated. Percy Jackson fans will visit the place where Athena (the mother of Annabeth) and Poseidon (the father of Percy) fought.

If you want to see the Acropolis from an entirely different perspective, we highly recommend the amazing Kids Love Greece Acropolis 3D app for families. This app is a virtual time-traveling gadget.  With the use of mini iPads, you will be able to zoom in and out and get a closer view of all the details of the monuments as they used to be in ancient times.

Our next stop is the Acropolis Museum. Here you will see all the artifacts that have been found during excavations at the Acropolis. With the help of our licensed family guide, your kids will be kept engaged by the intriguing stories behind the exhibition.

This private combined tour of the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum lasts about 3 hours and is specially designed just for families. The walking time is approximately 40 minutes. In case you get tired, we can allow time for resting or a snack.

Afternoon: Cape Sounion, Temple of Poseidon

After the Acropolis Museum visit, we will stop for a lunch break in the area before heading to Cape Sounion. You can also choose to have lunch in a seaside fish taverna. After lunch your guide will take you to the Temple of Poseidon. This temple on the top of Cape Sounion was dedicated to Poseidon, the god of the sea.

According to mythology, this was also the spot where Aegeus threw himself into the sea when he saw the black sails of the ship, and believed that his son Theseus – who had gone to Knossos to fight the Minotaur – was dead. For this reason the sea was called the Aegean Sea.

Watching the sunset from the temple overlooking the sea is an unforgettable experience for the whole family. At the end of the day, we will go back to Athens and drop you off at your hotel.

Our Percy Jackson Mythology for families 1-day trip will give you the opportunity to discover and explore the two main places described in Percy Jackson’s adventures in Athens. Book this tour now for a day in Athens full of adventure and fun for the whole family!
