Return details
-
National GardenWe begin by stepping into Athens’ green oasis and discussing how the National Garden was created and why it became the “green heir” of Greece. This wasn’t just landscaping—it was a royal labor of love that shaped modern Athens and still offers a peaceful escape in the center of the city.
-
Zappeion GardenHere we introduce the symbols of love: the heart and the rose. You’ll receive a simple “memento” concept—an easy way to remember what these symbols truly mean beyond romance: devotion, vulnerability, beauty, and the courage to choose love. At the statue of Eros, we tell the story of Cupid—not as a cute cartoon, but as a powerful force in myth. We explore how his arrows represent desire and obsession, and then shift the meaning into something deeper: the transformation from forced love into chosen love—the kind of love that is earned, not imposed.
-
Statue of Lord ByronWe meet Athens through the eyes of the world’s first celebrity romantic: Lord Byron. A true philhellene and the most famous romantic poet of his era, Byron’s story in Greece is filled with passion, longing, and loss. This stop connects romance to history—how love for a person, a place, or a cause can change your life.
-
Arch of HadrianAt this ancient threshold, we explore love and loss through the lens of Rome and Athens. Then we do something memorable: we symbolically leave the old city and enter the new city with a short ceremonial devotion—an intention for yourself, your future, and (if you choose) your relationship.
-
PlakaWalk through Plaka's streets and learn about Hipparchia & Crates, one of the most striking love stories from ancient Athens: a wealthy young woman arrives in the city and falls for a Cynic philosopher who has rejected money, status, and possessions. This is a story about radical partnership—choosing love and values over comfort and appearances.
-
Acropolis MuseumMamikos & Mary. A tragic but beautiful love story from late 19th-century Athens—tender, haunting, and unforgettable. A love forever, a love undiscovered. This stop brings a quieter emotional tone, showing how love can exist even when it cannot be fully lived in the open.
-
Herod Atticus OdeonPass by the archaic Sanctuary of the Nymphs, where newlyweds brought offerings for fertility, harmony, and emotional health. Finish the tour at the Herod Atticus Odeon where you will talk about the Sappho of Lesbos, Poetess of love, longing and loss — the woman who gave the ancient world its first true love songs. Before Sappho, love had no melody; after her, it echoed for centuries.
If it’s canceled due to poor weather, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.
