West of the acropolis

A walking tour next to the famous ruins and less known paths, around the cliffs west of the Acropolis, where the beating heart of Ancient Athens and Democracy existed, whilst giving answers to the what’s, hows and whys for constructions and buildings in the area.

EROS - SORCERY & CURSES

In the “Eros, Sorcery and Curses” walk we are transported to the neighborhoods of the Acropolis and Thissio, on a route that will explore the relationship between love and magic.

We will talk about wedding customs in Ancient Athens, the gods and goddesses of love, and delve into the magical world of antiquity, discovering curses, binding spells, and other magical practices. Through stories of well-known courtesans, we will learn about their impact on the art, politics, and society of the time. The walk will lead us to the Western Hills of the Acropolis (Nymphes', Muses' and Pnyx Hill) to reveal their secrets.
