Athens by private jet Estimated flight time from Paris : 3h15
Athens, the capital of Greece, is the country's economic, political, and cultural heart. The birthplace of great artists and philosophers of antiquity, with over 3,000 years of history, the city played a key role in the development of democracy.
The first must-see attraction in Athens: the Acropolis. One of the seven wonders of the ancient world and a UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site, this sacred hill is home to many of the city’s most important ruins, offering visitors a fascinating journey through ancient Greek history.
A high point of philosophy, the ancient Agora once hosted Socrates and Plato. Remarkably well-preserved, this site still evokes the intellectual and civic spirit of classical Greece. Nearby, the Theater of Dionysus, birthplace of Greek tragedy, is well worth a visit.
The Tower of the Winds is another unmissable landmark. This ancient marble water clock dominates the surroundings with its elegance. Close by, the Propylaea—the grand entrance to the Acropolis—await visitors with its impressive scale and monumental stairways, a reminder of the grandeur of ancient architecture.
The National Archaeological Museum, one of the most important museums in the world, is a true paradise for art lovers. Housing over 12,000 artifacts, including some of the most exquisite works from ancient Greece, it features one of the largest collections of sculptures ever assembled.
Less famous but equally magnificent, the Acropolis Museum is a masterpiece of modern design. Housed in a glass structure, it showcases treasures from the Acropolis, including a dedicated section for the Parthenon. The top floor, with its panoramic windows, offers a stunning view of the Acropolis itself.

For a relaxing getaway, head to Agistri Island, surrounded by pine trees and stunning deep-blue waters. Locals often escape here to swim and unwind away from the city bustle. A bit farther, the uninhabited island of Moni serves as a peaceful nature reserve, home to many deer and rabbits—a truly immersive and serene experience.
