Kalimera from Athens! A few words about me: I have worked as a travel agent for 20+ years in both Greece and the United Kingdom, and in the last 5 years, I work as an Athens Walking Tour Expert! Having spent my life in an office and crafting travel itineraries for hundreds (if not thousands) of guests wishing to visit Greece, I decided to leave the office and start walking around Athens, showing my guests, the many faces of Athens as she unfolds in front of us all these years; My greatest passions are mythology, philosophy, architecture and good food and this is what we will explore together in a 3. 5-4 hours' walk around Athens. We will talk about myths and legends of Ancient Athens and understand the true meaning behind them. We will listen stories from buildings, churches and temples and see them with the eyes of our soul. We will taste delicious, real Greek food as it evolved in the last 2500 thousand years! The spinach and cheese pies as well as the skewers & gyros and the delicious cheesecake were found in Ancient Athens too! Our walk will not concentrate on the past but also on the present; A great Greek author Nikos Kazantzakis, author of the books Zorba the Greek and The Last Temptation of Christ, says: "Every perfect traveler always creates the country where he travels" and I would love to be part of this amazing creation. My greatest passions are philosophy & psychology (holder of psychology degree). I speak Ancient Greek and study all classic philosophers and their work in their language. Do not hesitate to contact me for any curiosity, info, request you may have: your questions are more then welcome and dear to me. I am a licensed tour operator not a licensed guide and I do not guide inside Acropolis, Agora or Temple of Zeus. I will pass you all my historical & archaeological knowledge whilst walking or dining together!

Join me on a walking tour around Athens that will allow you discover and unfold Athens via her mythology and customs during a period of 3000 years! We will walk past some of the city's most famous sites and talk about hidden stories and myths that will make you see clearly how mythology influenced and formed the life of a modern Greek. The highlight of this tour is a guided 10 minutes Ancient Greek Meditation, an introduction to the precious Ancient Greek Technique, that will help you enjoy your 20' meet with your soul time in the future! We will stop for a coffee (or tea) to enjoy the laid back moments that Greeks love. The tour concludes in Plaka, where I will leave you giving you some time for shopping or lunch!
- Meet me at Acron Cafe opposite the Museum of Athens! - We will first stop at the Athens Museum where you will see the remains of the Ancient City. - Acropolis is located opposite the Museum with beautiful views of the Parthenon. - We will then continue to the Theater of Herod Atticus. - We will continue towards the Ancient Agora of Athens, my favorite place of the city. We will enter the site to feel the vibe of the area and here, we will take our 10' guided Ancient Greek Meditation.
