    We did the street art tour with Leo. He was very passionate about street art as an art form and as an Athenian form of expression. The tour was well paced, and Leo took the time to answer our questions about the art and the cultural and political context it was created under. He also shared a helpful follow up PDF with the artist names. We were able to recognize an artist he had shown us on our own when we were walking around later that evening! I would recommend this tour highly to anyone visiting the area, interested in art, or who wants to see a bit more of modern Greek life.

    Most people go to Athens to see the ancient art that's been in place for thousands of years, but this is your chance to see modern Athens, and very transient art. Elizavet was an excellent guide who brought us through some neighborhoods we hadn't seen, and gave us lots of back stories about the history and meaning of Athens street art. My only regret is that I didn't have a few more days to spend in Athens after taking this tour. I would have liked to go back to some of those neighborhoods to spend more time.

    Chose two Tours from this company - Street Art and Unexpected Athens Orientation. There was no duplication in areas explored with the two Tours. The orientation tour took us from Kolonaki, through the ‘anarchists’ area Exarcheia, finishing in Monastirakiou. 6 on this tour. The Street Art Tour was just for the two of us and was led by Antigoni who showed us most interesting street art from Gazi to Psyrri. Antigoni has a background in street art and extremely knowledgeable. There’s more to Athens than the Parthenon and we were lucky to find Alternative Athens to show us around.

    Gazi

    Over the past couple of decades, Athens’ Gazi district has seen an incredible amount of development, becoming the new cool place to be in the city. It’s now full of restaurants, cafés, cinemas, bars, music venues, and, of course, art – the old city gasworks has been turned into a museum/cultural center named “Technopolis”, which may be unique in Europe.

    The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
