Take a private tour at Acropolis as it is a famous archaeological site located in Athens, Greece.

The Acropolis Museum is one of the most important museums in the world and a must-see for any visitor to Athens. Located on the sacred rock, east of the Parthenon, it houses some of the most important sculptures of ancient Greek art, including exhibits from the temple of Athena Polias on the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the temple of Athena Nike, and the Erechtheion.

The National Archaeological Museum of Athens is another must-visit destination for anyone interested in ancient Greek art and culture. It's the most important archaeological museum in Greece and one of the richest in the world. Its collections are representative of all the cultures that flourished in Greece.

For a taste of Athens' architectural heritage, check out the Old Palace and the Old Parliament Building. The Parliament Building is a representative sample of the early period of Neoclassicism in Greece, while the Old Parliament Building is one of the most historic buildings in the city and an architectural jewel in the center of Athens.

If you're interested in seeing how the city's leaders live, head to the Presidential Mansion, also known as the New Palace. The eclecticist building is one of the most magnificent examples of the architectural heritage left by Ernst Ziller and was built in 1868 for Crown Prince Constantine.

Finally, no private trip to Athens would be complete without a visit to the Panathenaic Stadium and the Temple of Olympian Zeus. The Panathenaic Stadium was transformed into a stadium by Lykourgos in 330-329 BC for the athletic competitions of the Great Panathinaea Festivities and is believed to have had a seating capacity of 50,000 people. The Temple of Olympian Zeus, on the other hand, was the largest temple in Greece and was built in 515 BCE during the reign of the tyrant Peisistratos.
