What you’ll do
Get ready to discover the secret side of Athens with a host who will take you beyond the usual tourist spots and into the heart of the city's hidden gems. And we're not just talking about those hard-to-find places that require a treasure map - some of the best-hidden gems are just around the corner from the tourist attractions you've already seen!
Perhaps you'd like to explore Plaka, where the narrow alleys, neoclassical buildings, and picturesque little shops, cafes, and traditional tavernas will transport you to another world. And when you're ready for something a little more trendy, we'll whisk you off to Psirri, a neighborhood that's beloved by locals for its hidden eateries.
But we're not just about the food and shopping - we'll also show you the city's rich history and mythology by taking you to hidden archaeological sites, such as the Ancient Cemetery of Kerameikos or the Temple of Olympian Zeus.
