Elena - Tour Guide in Athens

The origins of Athens can be traced back to a magical time when gods came down to the earth from their royal palace on mount Olympus in order to get married to mortals and competed among them over who would give the city the best gift and win the dominion.

Mysteries and intricate questions are delved into: how many Pythias were there ? why did athletes compete naked ? was Socrates really bullied by his wife ?

The thread of the history of Athens is unwound and touches the controversial character of the modern Greeks ,who take pride on breaking the smoking ban

That and many more ,can satisfy the curiosity of the most demanding visitors.

I am more than happy to share my knowledge of the Greek history and culture with our international friends!

Kind reminder to guests :tours are conducted with a minimum number of three people and above

Elena was very informative, friendly and funny. She gave a variety of information from history and politics over mythology and anecdotes. It was a really lovely tour that I can fully recommend!

Elena nos ayudó a poder aterrizar y entender Atenas en esta primera visita. Una mujer sabia e inteligente que nos acompañó durante tres horas por el centro de Atenas! Gracias Elena
