During the day, the spirit of ancient Athens is everywhere, but the true magic of the city is best experienced at night. On this Athens tour, we’ll walk along ancient streets and laneways, follow in the footsteps of famous personalities, hear secret stories of celebrity visitors, learn about local myths and traditions, spook ourselves with ghost stories, and dig into the city’s music scene.
We’ll visit three themed bars located in unique secret gardens and on rooftops with splendid vistas, hanging out with crowds of cheerful locals enjoying a night out in their home. You’ll get to check out corners of the city that only locals visit, and uncover some of the city’s coolest spots.
You’ll also get to participate in some local drinking traditions, sampling ouzo and raki paired with mouthwatering finger foods.
From our last stop, you’ll have the option to head off on your own or, if you want to keep the night going with your new Urban Adventures friends, join us for free VIP entry to a bouzoukia venue featuring urban folk music — a true local experience for night owls with itchy feet!

Mr. Dennis Julian R. from Germany travelled on 28 May 2019:
This tour was a great opportunity to see a more modern side of Athens. Our guide Thodoris had lots of knowledge about the ways of life of the local Athenians, and a love for his city that he loved to share! The drinks and food that we got to taste were equally amazing. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who visits the city!

This was a great experience! I was travelling alone and joining an Intrepid tour the following day. I wanted to experience the nightlife in Athens but was afraid to try it on my own. Theo was an excellent leader! He is polite, funny, and well informed. I had read the reviews about him prior so as soon as he introduced himself I knew that I was in good hands. There were only two other people on the trip so it felt like a night out with friends. He tooks us to several locations to enjoy local drinks and food. Many of the establishments were hidden and I never would have been able to find them on my own. I was never nervous or felt that safety was an issue. This experience was a pleasure from start to finish. Thank you, Theo! Yamas!!

The Twilight Tour of Athens was excellent. It was a great way to explore the city & sample local food & drink. Theo was a brilliant guide who made the night a lot of fun for everyone.

This tour was a great way to get acquainted with the Athenian/Greek culture of drinking and socializing. We tried some great foods, wines, and I never felt like we were only getting a “taste” of anything. Overall it was a wonderful evening.
