    AMAZING!

    The tour was awesome to see the big monuments in Athens. Penny was great and had a lot of knowledge of the area. She was also extremely fun to hang with (:

    Delightful Experience!

    A great “mini-tour” of key sites near the City Center, followed by a wonderful wine tasting experience, customized to our wine preferences.

    Top evening in Athens

    Excellent and informative walk through central Athens taking in the Zeus temple, botanical gardens, parliament building and the Plaka district to name a few. The tasting of Greek wines accompanied by cheese and charcuterie rounded out the evening. Penny , the tour guide, is knowledgeable and friendly. Would absolutely recommend.

    Definitely A Must Do In Athens

    Fabulous and informative evening with Penny. We walked past some of Athens old sites and through the Plaka area to where we had the wine tasting. The wines were delicious as was the cheese and meat platter. Would highly recommend.

    You’ll be lucky to see Athens with Penny Tsapara

    Penny was a wonderful hostess to show us around her Athens and introduce us to Gyros & Loukoumades. She truly gave us “The Flavors of Greece” as well as an excellent overview of so many historical sites in the city. Her style is warm, bright, gracious, patient, and highly informative. A fabulous evening walking around vibrant Athens.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We hope to see you back soon!

    Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.

    How much does Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at €62 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 Walking and Wine Tasting Experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 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 Walking and Wine Tasting Experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 22 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 Walking and Wine Tasting Experience?

    +

    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 Walking and Wine Tasting Experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience?

    +

    Around 8 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience 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 Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. 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.

    What is included in Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience?

    +

    Included: All food tasting fees included; Guided evening walk through Athens' historic neighborhoods; Tasting of 4 premium Greek Wines; Platter of Greek cheeses and cured meat; and Wine tasting guidance and introduction to Greek wine varieties. Not included: Hotel pick up & drop off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience?

    +

    Our meeting point is outside of Arethousa hotel, which is one minute walk away from Syntagma Square (Metro Line 2 & 3) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Athens by Night Walking and Wine Tasting Experience if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Athens. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
