Explore Athens and the Acropolis with us!
Hi, I am Despina, co-founder of The Original Athens Walking Tours and a licensed guide for as long as I can remember. My team of knowledgeable guides and I bring our expertise, passion, and love for the city to every tour. We offer some of the best experiences in Athens, from exploring iconic sites like the Acropolis to discovering the city's best Greek food.
With over four decades of experience, we guarantee exceptional historical and culinary tours, both in small groups and custom private options tailored to your needs and preferences. We've been awarded the TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Award for 12 consecutive years. Despite the challenges of 2020 and 2021, we increased our review rate by 396% and ranked 9th among European tour operators in review growth, according to Arival.
We proudly call ourselves "The Original" Athens Walking Tours, as we were the first tour operator to offer walking and culinary tours in Athens back in 2004. Our pioneering spirit, dedication to quality, and commitment to providing unforgettable experiences set us apart.
We love what we do, we perform on time, and above all, we care. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the magic of Athens with you!
