TOUR ITINERARY

A stop at the Roman Hadrian’s Gate and then a visit to the historic site of the ancient Temple of Zeus with great photo opportunities with the Acropolis in the background!

You will be introduced to and photograph the Panathinaiκon stadium, a photographer’s paradise! The first modern Olympic Games of 1896 took place here.

Through the scenic paths of Plaka at the foothills of Acropolis, we discover the old Athens and the island-lookalike area of Anafiotika. Everything under the warm Athenian sun that shines almost throughout the whole year!

While we explore known and unknown Athens, I will be pointing out the perfect points of view for an outstanding photograph. I can explain to you all your camera’s functions if you need to and give you practical tips you can use straight away to upgrade your photography.

We end up with spectacular panoramic views of the Acropolis rock, the Parthenon Temple and the city of Athens from the 105m-high hill of the Nymphs where the principal assembly of the democracy of ancient Athens convened.

Our Photo Walk will pass by the most picturesque spots and reveal fantastic photographic opportunities!
I am sure you will leave with your spirits and photographic skills developed and enriched!

You may drop me a line if you like, about your styles and interests or what you like to see in a city and I will be happy to customize a route closer to your likes!
