    Absolutely Amazing!

    We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. From the moment we met him, he was so warm, kind and professional, and genuinely felt like part of the family rather than just our photographer. He captured the day so beautifully and was incredibly patient and accommodating.

    Simply the best and most amazing photography tour in Athens!

    Vasilis is such a great human being first and foremost! The passion and curiosity with which he explained the significance of each of the photography locations around Plaka, Anafiotika, Acropolis, the Agoras and Areophagus Hill is unrivalled! His tips for different photography poses, patience and calm made the journey very relaxed! He was even generous enough to recommend me restaurants and viewpoints in my upcoming trip in Santorini! I highly recommend this activity. Trust me, you will make fond memories of Athens!

    Response from the operator: Thank you Yash! I enjoyed your company as well! Happy future travels! Vasilis Germanis PhotoToursinAthens.com

    A Magical Sunrise Proposal in Athens

    We had an absolutely amazing experience with Vasilis for our proposal photoshoot in Athens. From the very beginning, the arrangement was incredibly smooth and everything was perfectly organized. The proposal at sunrise with the Acropolis in the background was truly magical, and Vasilis captured the moment beautifully. The photoshoot itself was amazing, he made us feel comfortable and natural, and the photos turned out even better than we could have imagined. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and the final photos. If you’re looking for a talented, professional, and easy-to-work-with photographer in Athens, we highly recommend Vasilis!

    Response from the operator: thank you very much for trusting my photography to organize this very special moment! The idea to propose at sunrise was indeed great! I wish you both all the best for your new life! Vasilis Germanis PhotoToursinAthens.com

    The ONLY photographer you should hire when coming to Athens!

    Vassilis is a gifted and generous photographer who will give you images and memories that you will treasure forever. He is so personable and makes everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. As someone who often feels awkward when being photographed, Vassilis was so helpful in giving clear instructions. He knows wonderful locations that are not only beautiful backdrops but are hidden gems that really help you get a sense of the real Athens, not just what all the tourists get to see. I have used him as a photographer on multiple occasions, for both me as an individual and for family photoshoots.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words. Looking forward to hosting you in the future! Vasilis Germanis https://www.instagram.com/personal_photographer_athens/

    Athens Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Athens Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours cost?

    +

    Prices start at €19 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 Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 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 Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 87 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 Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours?

    +

    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 Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Athens Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours?

    +

    Around 30 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Athens Old City Private Photoshoot Tour/ 3hours 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.
