What to do and see in Athens, Attica: The Best Boat Tours & Water Sports

May 27, 2021 Hector Krause

Once known for smog, traffic and tacky architecture, Athens is a city reformed thanks to fortunes brought by the 2004 Summer Olympics. Spotless parks and streets, an ultra-modern subway, new freeways, an accessible airport and all signs in perfect English make the city easily negotiable. Meriting more than a stopover en route to the islands, sophisticated Athens sites include many pillars of Western history, from the Acropolis to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, as well as treasures in the National Archaeological Museum.

Trekking Hellas

Athens, once the center of the ancient world, is now a modern and multi-cultural capital. Except the classic sites to be visited, it can offer amazing experiences for nature lovers and active adventurers. Experience an exciting coastal tour: from Athens to Cape Sounio, and enjoy the sun plunging into the sea from the Temple of Poseidon. Explore a fir forest, at the 1.100 altitude Mount Parnitha: just an hour away of the busy Athens center you can hike, rock-climb, road or mountain bike, or even spend a night or two in the mountain hut. Enjoy stunning city views of Athens from high above. For adrenaline seekers we also organize canyoning, caving, rock climbing and biking tours. Endless options - endless fun and action !
