Awards & Accolades

Testimonials

"Top quality guides for both the Acropolis tour and the Acropolis Museum visit. Two passionate professionals who have been able to keep the family (with kids aged 12 and 10y) tuned in for respectively 5h and 2h, both ready to take questions and reply providing context and sense."

"This tour is an excellent opportunity to see and learn about a different Greece than the one in most tourist books. Highly recommend."

Vincenzp

"Taking the walking and food tour with Alternative Athens was one of the highlights of a 3 day tour of Athens. It was the best introduction to the city and local neighborhoods. We had tastings of wine, cheese, meze, coffee, and chocolate in a variety of local restaurants and stores that we would not have found on our own. At each stop we were treated as VIPs. We highly recommend this tour to people who want to experience life in Athens beyond the tourist spots."
