Fabulous Athens evening with Maria
A walking food tour of Athens at night, led by Maria, was the best way to get to know Athens. Hearing the history of Athens, during a tour that started at a small wine bar and ended much later, after great Greek dessert, at a roof top bar. Maria was fabulous - knowledgeable, energetic, great company and fun to spend time with. Highly recommend both the tour and Maria as your guide!

Very fun walking tour
The walking tour was a fun and informative way to see different parts of Athens. Maria was very knowledgable. I suggest doing the tour on the early end of your visit.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed exploring different parts of Athens and found the tour informative. Doing it early in your trip is great advice. We appreciate your feedback!

Awesome Introduction to Athens!
This tour was amazing. It was perfect for our first night in Athens. Maria took us all over Plaka and Monastiraki and showed us great places to shop and recommended tons of out-of-the-way local places to eat during our stay. We stopped at a cute wine bar for cheese, olives, and wine, then to a great gyros spot, got Greek donuts for dessert, and finally stopped at a lovely rooftop bar for a cocktail. The pace was perfect and Maria even gifted us a song with some street musicians. She was very friendly and even helped me find some of those olives after I got home. It was a memorable experience and I'm very glad we did it, especially on our first night.

Amazing night in Athens with Maria!
Our tour guide Maria Ketikidou was amazing! She was right on time to meet us at the meeting location. We actually got started a few minutes early and she was extremely knowledgeable. It was our very first day in Athens, so she gave us a lot of great recommendations for the rest of our trip as far as places to eat and things to see. She got some pictures for us and was very personable. The food and drinks were amazing and we got to try things we would’ve never done. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and would not hesitate to book another tour with her again when we go back.

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $71 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 37 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting?
+
Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Athens by Night: Small Group Sightseeing with Drinks and Food Tasting start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
