They are conducted by professional and well-educated tour guides.
The Athens Walking Tours guides are all licensed by the Greek Ministry of Tourism, having followed special studies for guides. Our guides are also university degree holders in relevant fields, such as History, Archeology or Cultural Studies. Apart from being highly qualified, the Athens Walking Tours guides share a passion for their work, which they regard as a mission, and do not repeat rehearsed information, but, rather, share their wealth of knowledge on Greece in the past and present with our visitors.
They are designed on the basis of our extensive experience.
The co-founder, Mrs Savvidou, has been a guide herself for over 30 years. She has done it all! - bus tours, city tours, cruises, religious tours; any tour you might think of. Furthermore, City Contact, the company that runs the Athens Walking Tours, has been operating in the field of tourism since 1996. It is the only company in Athens that publishes and distributes free brochures to all tourists that enjoy their sojourn in major hotels of Athens all year round.
All of our tours have been carefully designed by our experienced team of guides, providing rich information in a pleasant and comprehensive way.
Our highly qualified and knowledgeable tour guides share their knowledge, passion, experience and personal insights with the visitors and make them have an unforgettable experience.
