vacation-athens.netThere is a wide variety of excursions and tours in and around Athens. You can choose one of the organized excursions or plan a private tour to fit your timetable and interests. You, also, can choose one of the Greek island hopping packages, air tours, cruises or yacht charters. The distances are not great from Athens to any of the surrounding areas. While in Athens, consider a side excursion to one or more of the "isles of Greece." It is easy to arrange a day trip by boat from Piraeus to one or more of the islands of the Saronic Gulf, Aegina, Poros, Spetses and Hydra. All are feasible day trips but it is best not to schedule a tour for the day before you leave Athens. It is possible that a sudden storm could leave you stranded for a day on an island. Allow time to savor an unexpected adventure such as this! All excursions from Athens take the visitor into Attica, which today, as in antiquity, is the name of the countryside around Athens. According to legend, the hero Theseus unified the 12 towns of Attica under the leadership of Athens. The Attic countryside provided Athens with wine grapes, olives, honey, grains, fruits, marble from Mount Pendeli and Mount Imittos, and silver from the mines at Laurio, near Sounion. These tours give you an opportunity to observe the striking contrasts that make Athens such a fascinating city.
