- Plato’s Academy Digital Museum - Tailored for adults and teenagers aged 14 and above, this 2-hour immersive experience starts with a short visit to the intimate Plato’s Digital Museum, followed by a distinctive philosophical warm-up where participants read and interpret ancient Greek texts.
Wander through the historic park to the ancient Gymnasium ruins, where the philosophy instructor provides a timeline of Greek philosophical heritage, linking Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle.
Next, engage in a dynamic discussion of Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” using the Socratic method, and conclude with an energetic role-play debate using an authentic replica of an ancient water-timer.
This is more than just a tour—it’s a hands-on, enlightening experience in the heart of ancient Athens that combines education, culture, and enjoyment.
Participants have the option to enrich their experience with an additional hour focused on Aristotle’s Philosophy, featuring a stimulating game on virtue and choice!
Note: Plato’s Digital Museum is open from Tuesday to Friday, between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM. On other days, the brief museum visit is replaced with an engaging discussion that covers the same essential insights.
