Have been to Athens almost more times than I can count now. But even the "most expensive" spots aren't really that expensive. A lot of my Greek work colleagues like to diss on Athens, but that's only compared to the pure bliss of the Greek islands and other less touristy spots on the mainland. Compared to many other famous cities in the world, Athens is a real gem. Thanks for the tip about Kali Zoe restaurant! Gonna check it out next time (and there *will* be a next time ;-)

[@GreeceExplored]

I agree, it is all relative, price wise at least, but in Athens for me, more than 20 euros per head is going to the pricy side, though you can obviously spend a lot lot more! as always, appreciate both your comments, I really do enjoy the feedback!

[@ATHLDN]

I was born in this lovely city. Visiting in summer.

[@GreeceExplored]

Glad you enjoyed. You likely know it far better than me!! Have a good visit.

[@ravindersharma9194]

[@GreeceExplored]

I hope you have a good trip, great time to go with perfect weather, and the crowds wont be too bad

[@thelimitdoesnotexist2705]

I vosited Athens last year, on a bit of whim because I love history and it was a cheap flight with surprisingly cheap accommodation. It was easily some of the best three days of travel I had. Its the one city I cant wait to return to. Your videos of Athens and Greece are fantastic and so well researched. You really deserve more subscribers. Thank you for all the effort and research you do.

[@GreeceExplored]

Thank you for watching and commenting, I am glad you enjoy. I just love the area, and think it is so under-rated when compared to the islands!!

[@jennyhill6315]

This is a very informative video thank you very much! We are off to Athens in September and will certainly do this walk and try the restaurant!!

[@BabyImAcodPlaya]

Thank you so much for this video, it was exactly what i was looking for. You deserve more subscribers!

[@GreeceExplored]

Thank you so much for the feedback, comments like yours make the effort all the more enjoyable. Thank you

[@aleksandramaciejowska1756]

very informative, thanks! I usually take a few hours to get my bearings in the city I visit for the first time but I feel like I can already orientate myself in Athens 👍🙂

[@GreeceExplored]

Thank you for your positive comment, you will have a great time when you visit!

[@mohammedouchikh9255]

Wonderful

[@GreeceExplored]

Glad it was useful!

[@supervitallica]

great tour! thanks!

[@GreeceExplored]

Thank you for the positive comment!

[@Mike20we]

Very informative and entertaining video. I am actually quite impressed by the production values as well, keep up the amazing work.

[@GreeceExplored]

Thank you very much, I really appreciate your feedback. I am trying hard to improve my camera work and editing, both of which are relatively new to me. I hope you enjoy some of my other videos too. I like to cover less popular destinations and explore a bit, but they aren’t always well viewed unfortunately.

[@patyanglada]

Love the walking tour ! Will visit Athens and this helps much ! Really wish you had a link to a map.

[@GreeceExplored]

Glad you enjoyed, apologies but I don't

[@s.d.m.1840]

This is such an EXCELLENT TOUR!!! Thanks a Million. I'll be a first time visitor in May 2024. I lucked out by coming across your vlog... I've subscribed as well. May God Bless you.

[@GreeceExplored]

Thank you! I am delighted that my video is of use to you, I hope I can make more that will be useful in the future. any requests, just ask.

[@KimberlySchreiber]

Thanks for sharing. I will be there with my son and his friend for his 21st birthday, any special restaurant you would recommend?

[@GreeceExplored]

I wish I could, I am afraid I don’t know the smart restaurants well enough to recommend, but I would look at the local smart hotels, many of them have roof top restaurants with amazing views of the Acropolis! Happy birthday to your son too! You will love Athens. If you can take a trip to Corinth or Sounio too, the beaches from glyfada south are good too, voula for example.

Vegan Beat has the best gyros

[@m.k.6805]

Really nice video. I'm planning a trip to Athens soon and this is much more helpful than maps. It would have been great if there was footage of walking to Pathenanon. Did not see many street signs (typical of Europe) and I'd hate to lose my way ...

[@GreeceExplored]

The centre of Athens is easy to navigate, Ermou street runs right though the centre and is a good reference point, as is the Acropolis, which is often in view. It is a great place to explore.

[@khadzak7496]

Thank you for such nuggets of information 👌🏽Any suggestions which area is best for hotels ? & easy access to sites ?

[@GreeceExplored]

I am glad you found this useful. Anywhere in the centre is good, depending on your budget, near Syntagma Square or Ermou Street, Just dont stay too far out.

[@khadzak7496]

@@GreeceExplored thanks 🙏

[@nawar4119]

Great video's! Planning to visit around christmas. Can you advise on which areas you should stay as a first time visiter to the city? I hear that only Plaka is safe but its very limited and mostly expensive.

[@GreeceExplored]

Thanks, glad they are useful. Plaka is great, but anywhere in the centre is fine other than Omonia . Syntagma Square, Ermou Street etc, plenty of hotels from grand palaces to little boutiques. Be cheaper off season too. If the centre is too expensive could look at somewhere like Chalandri, Olympic fashion hotel or similar but is about 15 euros in a taxi to the centre. You are best off in the centre.

[@belgiumbikash8160]

❤🎉❤ , very soon we’re going to visit, thanks from 🇧🇪 , I should follow your route map, I subscribed you too!

[@GreeceExplored]

I am sure you will enjoy, the weather is great at the moment too!

[@Scraghunter]

Take a close look at the rifles the Tomb Guards have. They are M1 Garands from WWII. Last I heard (video author may know more since he's there), those rifles are still 100% functional.

[@GreeceExplored]

I am not a gun expert in anyway, but I would be surprised if they are not functional. Glad you enjoyed.

[@muktisarah]

You mention your bus tour? How do we find it?

[@GreeceExplored]

I have a video on it, link as follows; kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIeXeY2ih56pr9E

[@Mia_Louiise]

I’m just confused with all those directions 🤔 I’ll just look for the Acropolis & head for it 😂

[@GreeceExplored]

It is easy to see, but there is lots to visit on the way too

[@janosik150]

I found Lisbon to be much more pretty and romantic, and exotic and historic. Athens is like modern crowded city.

[@GreeceExplored]

I haven't toured Lisbon, so I can't comment, but I agree, the centre of Athens is not romantic, but it is fascinating and historical.

[@athenarockabilly6245]

Really go there then

[@GreeceExplored]

Thanks!@@athenarockabilly6245

[@Feta_Cheezz_Montgomery_Burns]

The city really should clean up the graffiti though.

[@scienceownsimposters2142]

Magical & legendary Palma de Mallorca is the most visited city per square mile in Europe & the second most visited city in the world per square mile & in 2023(most tourists ever in the history of Mallorca)it is expected to be the most visited city in the world per square mile.Dont believe me?Look it up...
