Full Itinerary
Even if daylight comes to an end, it doesn’t mean that sightseeing stops around Athens! On this Athens by night tour, let us show you a different side of the city under the moonlight, neighbourhoods that aren’t frequent by tourists and places where you will get the opportunity to socialize with locals.
Ancient Athens is everywhere during the day, but when the sun goes down, the true magic of the city reveals to you. Follow the footsteps of famous personalities as you walk along ancient paths and back streets, learn about local tales and myths, listen to spooky stories and gossips with celebrity visitors included and check out Athens’ thriving nightlife scene.
Greeks, love life and everything that wakes up the “Zorba” inside them, and trust us, as you won’t want the night to finish!
While you wind your way through the city’s back streets, you’ll uncover some of the city’s coolest spots and find out why nobody goes to bed before 12 in Europe’s oldest capital.
Among others, visit three themed bars in hidden courtyards, admire the marvelous Acropolis highlighted from a secret rooftop, wander through alleyways packed with alternative venues, and mingle with locals in Athenians-favourite hangouts.
In a local tavern, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy some local drinking traditions, such as sampling ouzo and raki, perfectly paired with delicious local finger foods.
At the end of the night, you will have completely understood the “Greek Spirit” and have experienced your best night ever!
From our last stop, your local guide can give you advice on the best way to get back to your hotel. If you want to keep the night going with your new friends (this is a small shared group tour max 6 people), follow us for more nightlife experiences around the city that never sleeps!
