Create your own, personal tour

  • 1Tell us what you like and who you are

    What kind of things are you interested in seeing or doing? Are your interests related to archaeology, to museums, to art, to food, to contemporary culture, to the local way of life? If you’re part of a group, do you have kids with you, or seniors? Are you here with friends, or just one special person?

  • 2Tell us how much time you’d like to spend exploring, and what you’re thinking of spending.

    Do you have a few hours, a day, more than that? Do you want to tour just Athens, or would you like to see other places, too? What’s your budget?

  • 3We’ll get started creating a customized itinerary for you.

    We love to get creative, we know the city inside out, and we can put together a schedule unlike any other tour company in Athens. Within 48 hours, we’ll send you the personalized itinerary we’ve come up with, taking into account all the information you gave us.

  • 4We’ll let you in on some other secrets, too.

    Apart from what’s on the itinerary, we’ll be glad to let you know about the best local eateries, popular new bars, cafés or other places or sights that might go with your interests. The more you know about our city, the better time you’ll have here in Athens.

Testimonials

"A great way to get under the skin of the city! Loved our street tour with Nikos -he's passionate and knowledgeable about the art but is also full of insight into Athens and her culture. Can't think of many tours that would engage our teenagers for three hours. Would definitely do another Alternative Athens tour with or without the family."

"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."

"Traveling to Delphi was wonderful. But what made the experience the best part of traveling to Athens were the guides and staff of Alternative Athens-Elisavet and Tania were so great!! . Yes, it's more expensive than maybe some other touring companies, but it's entirely worth it. I hope to travel back to Greece soon and I will certainly be reaching out to Alternative Athens for another tour."
