what we will do
Treasure Hunting is a fresh, fun, and interactive way to explore the timeless wonders of Athens!
Blending the excitement of a game with the beauty of sightseeing, this experience takes you beyond the ordinary walking tour. Right in the heart of the city—around the sacred hill of the Acropolis—you’ll uncover hidden gems, both historic and mythical, as you solve clues and take on creative, on-the-spot challenges.
There’s no entrance fee—
all the sites are outdoors
and free to explore on foot.
The journey typically lasts 2+ hours, we move at your pace & can adjust the game to fit your plans.
This is no ordinary stroll: it’s an adventure that calls for sharp eyes, clever thinking, and a playful spirit.
If you love riddles, puzzles, and a bit of mystery, you’re in for a treat!
where we will meet
Let the adventure begin!
We’ll meet at the Acropolis metro station and set off on a fun-filled
2.5 km stroll around the legendary Acropolis Hill, right through the heart of Athens’ historic center. Get ready to spot statues, decode carvings, and uncover hidden clues tucked away in ancient monuments—we're on a mission to piece together the past!
The walk involves easy-going activity, with just a few gentle ups and downs—nothing too challenging, just enough to keep things exciting! Our Treasure Hunts are designed for private groups up to 50 players.
We kick off the hunt daily at 09:00 AM, and during the summer, we add a second round at 5:00 PM—but hey, we're flexible! Tell us what works best for you, and we’ll do our best to make it happen.

to ask
. 1. Official Training & Expertise Licensed guides in Greece must complete rigorous university-level studies in history, archaeology, art history, and guiding. They are certified by the Greek Ministry of Tourism. Unlicensed guides lack this formal training and often rely on hearsay, personal interpretations, or misinformation. 2. Legal Access to All Archaeological Sites Only licensed guides are legally permitted to guide inside museums and archaeological sites. Unlicensed guides cannot legally perform guided tours in these locations and may be removed by authorities. 3. Police Checks Can End the Tour – With No Refund Greek authorities regularly conduct checks to stop illegal guiding. If an unlicensed guide is stopped by the police, the tour immediately ends, the guests are not refunded, and part of their vacation is effectively ruined. With a licensed guide, this risk does not exist. 4. Professionalism, Safety, Accountability — and a Legitimate Business Licensed guides pay taxes, contribute to social security, and operate fully legitimate, regulated businesses. They are accountable professionals who follow safety standards and ethical guidelines. 5. Authentic Local Insight & Insider Knowledge Licensed guides are locals who know their area, their specialty, and the surrounding neighborhoods like the back of their hand. They share insider tips on food, customs, hidden gems, and modern Greek life—things no generic script or online article can replicate. 6. Meeting a Local Enhances the Cultural Experience Travel isn’t just about monuments—it’s about people. With a licensed guide, travelers get to meet a real local, ask questions about daily life, traditions, and culture, and gain a deeper, more personal understanding of Greece. This human connection is often one of the most memorable parts of the trip.
