We stayed downtown in a boutique hotel within walking distance of everything we wanted to see. That was key as the traffic is wild, especially those on motorbikes that they ride everywhere, even on sidewalks! We experienced a walking foodie tour, an excursion to all of the ancient sites and museums, plus a half day tour to Cape Sounion to see the temple of Poseidon on the Aegean Sea. Fun times were spent in the main squares dining, drinking, and ‘playing’ with the locals. The Athenians are very friendly and ready to assist with any request. They have been living here in this ancient city for at least 6,000 years.
