Athens, Greece. The gods are silent, but the laws of men are not. Once a year, fourteen young Athenians are sent to Crete—never to return. This year, among them is the daughter of Demokritos, a renowned merchant. Desperate, he reaches out to you: “The place where she’s being held is hidden. Will you find her before it’s too late?”
Your quest begins through the myth-laced streets of Athens. Solve divine puzzles, follow ancient clues, and uncover the secrets buried beneath temples and stones. Each step brings you closer to the truth—and the danger.
Walk with friends or family on a thrilling, real-world adventure inspired by Greek mythology. Reconnect, explore, and become the hero of a timeless tale. The gods are watching. Will you answer their call?

What’s the mission in this quest?
You’ve been contacted by the merchant Demokritos: his daughter has been chosen as one of the sacrificial maidens for the Minotaur in Crete. It’s your job to follow divine clues hidden around Athens to find her hidden prison before it’s too late.
Where do we begin and end the journey?
You start at The Discus Thrower sculpture (Irodou Attikou 27) and finish at the Academy of Athens. The route meanders through major historical and mythical landmarks across 5.2 km.
Which famous sites will I see along the way?
You’ll visit spots like the Areopagus Hill, The Pnyx, the Prison of Socrates, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates, Zeus’ Temple, and more. It mixes well-known historic sites with mythic storytelling.
Is this quest scary, or more about myth/suspense?
More myth + suspense than horror. The theme is fantasy, starting from Greek mythology with urgency (saving the maiden), but not graphic. Good for teens, couples, and myth lovers.
Is this experience good for a romantic date?
Yes. Walking through Athenian historical streets under dusk, solving divine riddles together feels cinematic. Ending near the Academy gives a grand finish. Great for couples who like adventure + history.
