What to do and see in Athens, Attica: The Best Shopping Tours

June 23, 2021 Enedina Augsburger

Once known for smog, traffic and tacky architecture, Athens is a city reformed thanks to fortunes brought by the 2004 Summer Olympics. Spotless parks and streets, an ultra-modern subway, new freeways, an accessible airport and all signs in perfect English make the city easily negotiable. Meriting more than a stopover en route to the islands, sophisticated Athens sites include many pillars of Western history, from the Acropolis to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, as well as treasures in the National Archaeological Museum.

I know Athens fairly well but Maroussa surprised me! the choice of the places is very interesting and offers an overall vision of Greek gastronomy. Maroussa also gives anecdotes, history points all along the tour and it makes sense to help us get to know the Greek way of thinking / living / eating better.

This is I recommend warmly - and I would even book it again when come back to Athens, maybe after having also tried out the “Bizarre Greek Food” tour offered by the same team. It was so nice to be guided by Agathi to a variety of places, which all together made a whole Sunday morning brunch - and by the way having a very pleasant informative conversation about he city and the country and especially on Greek gastronomy. I just suggest not to eat too much the evening before nor anything else for breakfast..

My husband Howard and I would like to thank you very much for arranging our tour of Athens last week. The driver we had, Lefteris, was terrific. He was sympathetic to my husband’s disability and geared everything to our needs. He is very well informed and presented everything in a most interesting way. We felt that we saw more of Athens in one day than many people are able to see on their own in a week. We would certainly recommend you to our friends who are in need of a driver and guide. Again, thanks a lot.”
