Skip the tourist traps and head straight to the good stuff: where to eat, what to see and where to stay.
Athens is bold. Athens is brilliant. Ancient ruins, buzzing streets, all-day freddos and long dinners that stretch late into the night. It’s a city full of contrasts and knowing where to go makes all the difference.
This guide is 59 pages of stunning photography and insider recommendations. It’s designed to save you hours of planning and help you experience Athens like someone who knows it well. These are the places I go back to and the ones I’d send to a friend who wants to see the city properly.
It also includes my complete 3-Day Athens Itinerary, with a ready-to-follow plan if you’re short on time or just want everything mapped out.
✔︎ Neighbourhoods worth visiting (and which to skip)
✔︎ My go-to restaurants, tavernas and cafés
✔︎ Boutique hotels and well-located accommodation
✔︎ The best bars for a drink, including rooftop views
✔︎ Cultural highlights beyond the must-sees
✔︎ Easy day trips if you have more time
✔︎ Travel tips that actually make a difference
Because you don’t want to waste time. You want to eat well, stay somewhere beautiful and feel like you’ve really seen Athens — not just ticked off the main sights.
This guide is personal, honest and fluff-free. No sponsored spots or generic lists, just thoughtful recommendations for travellers who value good food, design and authentic experiences.
