What you'll do
Embark on an interactive walking quest that uncovers the soul of Athens in a unique way. Visit iconic sites and hidden gems, both ancient and modern, and learn about their significance through on-the-spot challenges. The route takes you deep into Plaka, Athens' old city (groups do not enter archaeological sites or museums unless requested @ an extra cost; we will gladly provide a separate quote):
- Plaka Old City: Wander through colorful, narrow streets and marvel at the rich history and traditions.
- Prominent Monuments: Admire landmarks like Hadrian’s Arch, the Temple of Hephaestus, the Tower of the Winds, the Monument of Lysicrates, and many more.
- Ancient Agora: Walk by this famous landmark featuring the ruins of ancient Greek philosophers' gathering place.
- Monastiraki Flea Market and Thesion: Explore the vibrant flea market and the stunning neoclassical architecture.
In small teams, use your own smartphone or Summit’s tablet to navigate the quest. The digital map features pins that hide puzzles and surprises. Each pin corresponds to a location-related task, such as a puzzle, question, or team activity, proven with a picture or video. The team with the highest score at the end of the quest wins.
Prepare to experience Athens in a way that engages all your senses and immerses you in the city's vibrant culture and history!
