The beauty of the Mythology for Kids Experience is that it is essentially an educational tour for children of all ages designed most appealingly and engagingly.

 

Get to know the mythical city of Athens with your expert ‘Insider’ guide leading the way! For 3 hours you will walk by the famous ancient landmarks that this capital city is home to. Behind each landmark, there are stories to tell. Stories that you and your children may have only read in books or seen in movies. Now, you have the opportunity to witness the sites where the Greek Gods were worshiped and to learn about the legends behind them. Not only will your children be drawn into an imaginary world, but they will also learn the important lessons that each myth elegantly ends with.

 

Do you have a favorite God or hero? We especially love the Goddess Artemis. She was the Olympian goddess of the hunt, wild animals, and nature as well as chastity. Furthermore, she was regarded as a patron of girls and young women and a protectress during childbirth. She was absolutely fearless! We know that at the end of your tour, there will be a God or a hero with whom you will connect! The ‘Palace of Troy’ is your final stop. At this serene garden, your guide will end with sharing more intriguing details on your favorite fantasy movies and books, such as Percy Jackson and the Saga of Atreides, over a beverage of your choosing.
