5.00We really enjoyed this tour. A great way to see the main sites and to orientate ourselves in Athens - including a great dinner. Theo is an excellent guide - knowledgeable, friendly, passionate about Greece and willing to give great travel trips! Highly recommended - including in the winter season, which is when we went.

Awesome Athens at Night Walking Tour

5.00I had an amazing experience on this tour and seeing the city after sunset was truly magical. The monuments are beautifully lit and the cooler evening weather made it comfortable to explore. Theo is the ultimate tour guide. He is knowledgeable, friendly and brought the history of each site or activity to life with great storytelling and fun local insights. Between visiting several iconic landmarks, wandering through charming neighborhoods and getting tips on where to eat or what to explore next, Theo made sure there were plenty opportunities for photos. The dinner at the end of the tour was scrumptious with amazing local flavor and generous portion sizes! Whether you’re visiting Athens for the first time or returning, I highly recommend this tour because it’s the perfect way to experience the city’s history, culture and energy from a different perspective.
The only walking tour you need!

5.00This tour was absolutely amazing. Theo was so thorough and had such a great personality. Not only did we see great sites and learn the history but the dinner was AMAZING. I enjoy walking so I enjoyed myself but if you don’t just know it’s a lot of walking. I’m so happy that I did this tour on my first day, what a great intro to Athens and Greek culture.
Perfect first evening.

5.00This is the perfect way to spend your first evening in Athens. It's a small group activity (max 8 people, although there was only 3 on ours) so you can really interact with Teddy the guide, who is extremely knowledgeable about Athens and it's sights. You don't actually go into any of the places like the Acropolis, but I'd like to think of it as a greatest hits of Athens. There is a reasonable amount of walking up and down cobbled streets, so wear good footwear. Teddy is so enthusiastic about Athens and to be honest it was less like a guided tour and more like seeing a new city with a friend you didn't know you had. The meal included is excellent, and despite my doubts, the portions are big enough I've taken some back to my hotel. The meal includes water but other drinks are extra, but are reasonably priced. If you're expecting a tour with person carrying a red umbrella and speaking into a microphone this isn't that, it's more interactive. Great for people who want to experience a city through the eyes of someone who loves it. If every city had a Teddy, travel would be much more fun.

5.00My husband and I took this tour while on our honeymoon and highly recommend it! Our tour guide Katerina was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and very personable. The walk seemed easy because we were having such a good time chatting and stopping along the way to look at things. It was a great way to get oriented with the city and see what attractions you want to further experience. The restaurant we went to was fantastic and Katerina was able to recommend and explain what the various food options were. Thank you for making this a great experience!
Awesome city tour, must do!

5.00Theo was the absolute best tour guide. I learned so much about Athens and Greek history. The dinner was some of the best food we’ve had here in Greece. Highly recommend this tour. We saw places we would never have seen on our own.
Outstanding does not do justice to the tour “Athens by Night Enchanting Walking Tour and Dinner Delights

5.00Outstanding does not do justice to the tour we just took - “Athens by Night Enchanting Walking Tour and Dinner Delights.“ Our guide, Teddy, is as much the delight of the tour as the tour itself. He delivered an incredibly detailed overview of the shaping of Greece in its earliest times to present day. Every site we visited was relevant and his commentary about each person, place and thing increased our appreciation of having “hit” on a gem of a tour, making the history of Greece and it’s many philosophers, battles, and contributing factors enthralling and eye opening. We savored every moment and our dinner together was outstanding! Teddy even showed us some “off the beaten track” areas of Greece that hopefully you will get to see as well. We would rate this tour A+ and highly recommend it!!!! Meredith and Sam
Amazing night tour!

5.00Recently my husband and I spent a week in Athens and the night tour with Teddy was one of the best things we did on our visit. The information he gives on the tour was so interesting and the sites we visited were wonderful especially at night. Several sites we would not have known about had we not gone on the tour. The dinner was wonderful. Don’t miss this tour!
Absolutely PERFECT from start to finish!

5.00Being that I have traveled to many different places and been on tours with many different tour guides, this tour was BY FAR the best one I have ever been on! Athens is a beautiful place, with so much history and our tour guide, Teddy, was extremely knowledgeable the entire time. On this tour the food was the best I have ever had. Teddy gave recommendations of what to eat for dinner, that I am going to continue to order for the remainder of my trip. So authentic! Something that I loved about this perfect tour was the fact that many of the places we visited were places I would've never found just on my own without Teddy. Although I loved every minute of this tour, my favorite surprise while walking was the discovery of Anafiotika! The white walls felt as though I was walking through one of the famous islands of Greece, it was absolutely stunning. I felt so immersed in Greek culture especially because how many interesting facts that were being presented to me by Teddy the entire time! While the tour was extremely informative, I also was lucky enough to meet a true Greek himself with so much experience and knowledge of Greece. What I loved too about Teddy was the fact that he always was open to any questions I had and he made sure we stopped at the BEST picture-perfect places so I can have memories that will last a life time in this beautiful country. If you are looking for the best introduction to Athens, this is the tour you need to book!
