When you visit a new city, with adventure and curiosity in your soul, you have two choices in order to satisfy that need to explore new places and experiences: wander around with a guidebook in your pocket, aimlessly treading the path of some anonymous average tour guide - or pick up your camera, open your eyes to new experiences, and find a friendly, knowledgeable and generous local photographer to walk with. Whether you're a photographer or not, seeing the city through a photographer's eyes is to open your own eyes to wonder. If he's a passionate local too - even better. Vasilis of Photo Walks In Athens is just such a guide, if you're looking to see the best of the city (and beyond) in your limited time available - do it. We have so little time, there's so much to experience, get the very best experience for your precious effort. Vasilis will take you to the awesome famous historical places - but you'll get there enjoying the journey AND the destination, weaving your way through markets, and alleys, and by hidden gems such as have inspired poets and authors and artists for thousands of years. My day with Vasilis resulted in hundreds of photos I'll keep forever, but much more importantly, memories of laughs and adventures fulfilled that have me looking forward to coming back to Athens, and walking with Vasilis again - and soon. Your Athens adventure couldn't be in better hands.

Description

Athens is well known across the world for its ancient monuments, mythology, and history. For street photographers, however, it has much more to offer than just history. This bustling city has the feeling of an urban metropolis blended with the past.

The streets of Athens are edgy and full of character, and are a good introduction to the aftermath of the current economic crisis.

Put on your most comfortable walking shoes, cruise the city’s urban inferno, and enjoy an introduction to the secrets of street photography under the expert guidance of a friendly local photographer!

Great family fun!
Vasilis gave us a very enjoyable tour in the capital! We live in the country and do not visit Athens very often and it is always for business, but this time we had a lot of free time so we booked Photo Tours in Athens to show us around. We learned a lot about the city and ended up with a lot of great photos and memories! Vasilis was excellent with the kids too! We highly recommend!
What an amazing experience!
This really is such a special way to visit this fabulous city! The sights and the very essence of Athens come alive with terrific Greek gentleman at the helm. He is a true artist and that reflects in every aspect of this tour. He is also a charming and interesting man who will leave you wanting to return to Athens again and again. I am very happy to recommend this to everyone.
