The night tour is absolutely magical and so informative. Dimitri our very good looking guide was fabulous! We saw the moon, Saturn and Jupiter through the telescope.

Eugenides Planetarium

Reviewed By costaspal - Athens, Greece

One of the best places to get your kids. It has it all; Library, shows at the Planetarium dome, store to buy educational gifts, café...! Not sure whether also English-speaking shows are played, thought. I haven't been to a Planetarium - anywhere - that didn't amaze me. They always are people & tourist oriented so buildings and people working there are always at their best. Have seen multiple shows with my 8y old daughter and keep coming back in every opportunity. Possibility for online ticket purchase - don't bother printing them on paper, just keep the PDF handy on your mobile (QR scanning). Ideal to spend a day with your kid(s) "half" there and "half" at the SNFCC (Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center) across the other side of Syngrou Av.
