Athens Unveiled: Unexpected Local Secrets & Hidden Gems

Andreas was the most informed and interesting guide. He shared the history of the last 150 plus years and pointed out where things happened for us. So engaging and worth the time

My wife and I booked the The City Tour. Our City Tour was hosted by Andreas, a local greek who took us through all of the different neighborhoods in Athens and we witnessed the changing of the guard at the national assembly. He provided information, history, and guidance on where to go and what to do.

Niko was amazing with a wealth of knowledge and information. Would highly recommend him as a guide and this tour. He responded to our questions and then worked our interests into the tour, even helping us with finding a great place for lunch.

Tour date was 10/31 with Andres. He was very nice and knowledgeable. Pleasant tour. Weather was perfect. Went to many neighborhoods and learned so much of history. He also showed us the market and explained the food/meat traditions. Also showed us many old and new eateries/coffee shops: bookstores, signs, famous houses, etc. about 3-4 hours of walking, some uphill. Highly recommended.

This is a delightful tour led by an intelligent, thoughtful guide. You understand Athens from many different perspectives and find hidden gems that you would not see otherwise

Excellent tour. The guide was the best guide I’ve had on my many many tours. She was amazing! I very much recommend this tour.

Andreas led the four hour walking tour from the Parliament at Syntagma Square comparing the past scene and major historical information at each location. We visited Kolonaki, Excarthia, Psiris, and Monasteraki learning about past events and life in Athens in the present. Time flew by on this very interesting tour and we did not even feel the steady rain through most of it! Well worth it! Thank you, Andreas!

Nicolas did an amazing job of showing us all different parts of Athens and telling us both the history and stories of the places we were seeing. We really enjoyed the tour.

wonderful way to understand how and where athenians live- we are 75 and had no trouble walking- description of neighborhoods and changes were enlightening and seeing how athenians have lived the last 75 years, a great contrast to the sites from BC---our guide was informative and friendly- a great tour for anyone visiting athens

We had a fantastic tour of several Athens neighbourhoods with our guide Simos. He was simply awesome! He was extremely informative and engaging and just generally likeable! It turns out Athens is a very diverse, chaotic, colourful, vibrant and happening city! We have a real sense of place and a mental map now. Do yourself a favour and book this tour and ask for Simos!
