Exploring Athens' Graffiti

"Giorgos (George) was a superb guide for a comprehensive tour of the street art scene of (the sometimes the seamier side of) Athens. He confessed to having been a street artist in his youth and his enthusiasm for the genre and knowledge of the artists and the symbolism/ reason behind the drawings, as well as the street artist's code, gave us a much deeper understanding and respect for the works.

Super flexible private tour

The insiders created the perfect private tour based on our interests and schedule. We wanted to explore less known neighbourhood and discover the street art scene, but we were only available on the late afternoon. That was not at all a problem for them. The tour was very casual and smooth and the informations, very interesting.

A Tour that is for everyone! Excellent way to show the city and understand its history through art, involving social and economic problems and the expressiveness and creativity, especially of young Greeks. It was not just a tour, it was a very positive way of drawing on our imagination and reaching out to other perspectives and other points of view, always giving our opinion with a very fun and always available guide. Very interesting! Very affordable price for the quality-price ratio An unforgettable experience for which I recommend!

Excellent tour with George

We chose this tour in an effort to get to know the Athens where we grew up. We met George in Monastiraki and he took us on a unique trip to the alleys of Kerameikos, Metaxourgeio and the area of Psyrri. He passed on not only his knowledge of street art but also his enthusiasm for us to discover it ourselves. We had a wonderful time and saw a part of Athens that neither of us had ever seen. Keep up the good work!
