Athens, Greece: Recognised as one of the oldest cities in the world, a trip to Athens showcases how life was - The Ancient Way.
Home to astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, medicine, democracy and the location of the first modern olympic games. Refreshing high school history lessons at every corner, Athens provides a timeless experience for visitors. Be sure to try souvlaki (skewered meat), gyros (meat with chips in a wrap) and ouzo (grape spirit flavoured with anise/ liquorice) for a local experience.
Tips:
Travel between the Greek Islands and Athens via the local ferry. A convenient and relatively cheap option, which will also allow you to visit Piraeus Port, the largest passenger port in Europe. Its worth investing in a multi-visit pass, which will set you back 30Euros but includes most of the key attractions in Athens.
