Just because the day is over, that doesn’t mean your sightseeing is! This Athens tour will give you the opportunity to view many of the city’s most famous landmarks under the moonlight while checking out Athens’ thriving nightlife scene. Join this evening adventure for your best night ever!
During the day, the spirit of ancient Athens is everywhere, but the true magic of the city is best experienced at night. On this Athens tour, we’ll walk along ancient streets and laneways, follow in the footsteps of famous personalities, hear secret stories of celebrity visitors, learn about local myths and traditions, spook ourselves with ghost stories, and dig into the city’s music scene. We’ll visit three themed bars located in unique secret gardens and on rooftops with splendid vistas, hanging out with crowds of cheerful locals enjoying a night out in their homes. You’ll get to check out corners of the city that only locals visit, and uncover some of the city’s coolest spots. You’ll also get to participate in some local drinking traditions, sampling ouzo and raki paired with mouthwatering finger foods. From our last stop, you'll have the option to head off on your own or, if you want to keep the night going with your new Urban Adventures friends, join us for free VIP entry to a Bouzoukia venue featuring urban folk music — a truly local experience for night owls with itchy feet! You’ll see how locals enjoy life in this city that never sleeps!
