About this tour

Embark on a private half-day journey to Marathon, where ancient victory gave birth to one of the world’s most iconic endurance races. Begin at the Marathon Starting Line, the official starting point of the Athens Authentic Marathon, before walking the sacred battlefield at the Tumulus of the Athenians, honoring the warriors who defeated the Persians in 490 BC. Deepen your understanding at the Archaeological Museum of Marathon and connect past to present at the Marathon Run Museum. Conclude with a relaxing seaside stop in Nea Makri for coffee or optional lunch. A seamless private experience blending battlefield history, athletic legacy, and coastal atmosphere — all in comfort with your professional tour driver in a luxury Mercedes vehicle.
