A cradle of democracy, theater, justice and philosophy, Athens is the epicenter of the modern world, the most important city in the development of humanity; a place of great attraction for young and old for what it was, what it represents and what it is today.

Touring the monuments, museums or emblematic places of Athens becomes a profitable kind of history that, with a little humor, we can transmit in an entertaining way to the little ones.

Trip to Athens with children

Athens has many places of great historical attraction such as the Agora, the Acropolis, the Temple of Zeus or the Dionysus Theater, but we must not forget that in the eyes of the little ones these visits can be monothematic and tedious . Therefore, it is essential to try to make the trip to Athens with children arouse their curiosity about history.

But it's not only about seeing monuments and museums, but about spending a pleasant time with the family. And Athens is also a good place for it. Go through the narrow streets of the Monastiraki district and lose yourself among the charming shops and terraces of Plaka, from where you can photograph the imposing image of the Acropolis on top, enjoy an ice cream and delicious Greek cuisine, etc.

Climb Mount Lycabetus to contemplate the magnificent view of this colossal city is another activity that we will enjoy on our trip with children to Athens.

Did you know that Athens has one of the longest pedestrian streets in Europe? It measures 3.5 kilometers and allows a pleasant walk from the Temple of Olympian Zeus, passing through the Acropolis and the Agora.
