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.
