Summary:
I really enjoyed my time with Irini. She worked with me to reschedule when I couldn't make it originally, kept me safe throughout the walk, told me stories I have never heard before about Athens history, and we had some tasty spirits without it being too intense for me as a solo traveler. It was the perfect night cap for my first night in Athens.

Summary:
Fun tour with knowledgeable and engaging guide (Eirini). Great way to explore hidden gems in Athens. Eirini took us down narrow streets that opened to amazing views. We are all frequent visitors to Athens and she took us to charming spots that we never would have found on our own. Highly recommend! Wear good walking shoes as some of the paths are steep/slippery.
