Panathenaic StadiumEnjoy a journey into the past at our first stop at the Panathenaic Stadium. Here, immerse yourself in the captivating history, and seize the chance to capture breathtaking photographs that will hold your cherished memories. It stands out as the world's sole stadium constructed entirely from marble. Initially erected in the 4th century BC, this architectural marvel was meticulously rebuilt in 1896 to host the inaugural modern Olympic Games. It serves as a magnificent emblem of Greece's profound sporting legacy and rich heritage. We warmly invite our esteemed air visitors to embark on our tour from this very spot.
- Syntagma Square's name derives from the Greek word for "constitution." Site of the Hellenic Parliament and many important monuments, here you will learn about the modern Greek Republic and the political upheavals that have shaped Athens. (pass by)
- The Changing of the Guard in Athens is a ceremonial event that occurs in front of the Hellenic Parliament building, at Syntagma Square. This ceremony features the Evzones, an elite unit of the Hellenic Army who are also the presidential guard. Dressed in traditional uniforms, which include kilts (foustanella), tsarouchia (shoes with pompoms), and a cap (phareon), the Evzones perform a highly choreographed routine. The change occurs every hour, marked by a ritualistic and slow-motion performance that honors the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. This event is a significant attraction for tourists and a symbol of national pride and historical continuity for Greece. (pass by)
