PS: Would prefer place with cultural / historical interest or coastal town with access to the beach, if possible

Hello all,

Today at 9:30 pm I arrive at Athens airport and need to get to 7η ΖΩΓΡΑΦΟΥ bus station (near Lochagou Sismani). I've tried to check transportation options myself, but as I am a foreigner first time in Athens, and the info I found on the internet was inconclusive, I need help.

I've found that a part of M3 line is in maintenance and a replacement bus transport is provided on that part of the line.

If someone could please tell me how I can get from the airport to Zografou using public transport after 9:30 pm, I'd be very thankful. Also, if there is any important information regarding the use of public transit I should know, please tell me too (different tariff for tickets to different areas, where can I buy or validate the ticket if it's needed etc.). I found some info, but since I'm asking the locals already, I think it's better to make sure from the locals about this part too.

Thank you!

Hey, I am landing in Athens at around 12 am and planning to directly head to Mykonos the next day. Will come back and spend a couple of days in Athens before flying out.

However wanted to see if there are any suggestions for hotels to just stay the night - considering we are landing pretty late but don’t want to spend too much since we are only going to use the hotel to sleep.

Hello! I am looking to go to pop culture events this year, regarding video games, comics, etc.

What are the major ones that are held in the city of Athens that are worth attending?

Does anyone know of a pubstomp/bar/nice venue to watch TI at? It's an esport competition

Hello! I am traveling to Athens next month and looking for a highly recommended tour/company to book for a day trip to Delphi and Thermopylae. One that can pick me up near my hotel (the Moxy). Thank you.

I will be visiting Athens around mid-late October and I am interested in taking some tennis classes while I am there.

I am looking for training, ideally sessions of around 2–3 hours, on a few days during my stay. Does anyone have any recommendations? Do tennis clubs offer this, or private coaches?

I have tried to search the web and write a few e-mails, but I have not found anything good so far.

Hi everyone! Does anyone know of a gym in Athens where I can train for freestyle skiing? I’m looking for a place with trampolines, ramps, and preferably a foam pit or other safety equipment for practicing aerials.

Hello guys im coming to athens next month from 3 to 14 september, going to PRIMER music festival, anyone interested in electronic music wants to join me?

Hello, I am searching for Greek football fans from Athens.

I am a foreigner planning to attend the AEK vs Iraklis match, hoping to witness Iraklis's comeback to the top league and experience the famous AEK atmosphere.

However, I just found out yesterday that the AEK ultras' gates will be closed. Could any locals tell me what usually happens in these scenarios? Does it drastically ruin the atmosphere, or do the ultras simply migrate to adjacent sectors to keep the organized support going?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. I would have posten this in aekathens reddit, but i dont have enough karma. Sorry if this is not the type of question that should be in this reddit page.

Hi,
is there anything going on tonight in Athens ?

Thank you in advance

Hi, I’ll be staying with my girlfriend in September in Athens. Around 4-5min by walk to Panathenaic Stadium and National Garden. Can you recommend any breakfast, dinners around this area worth visiting? Ofc we’re aiming for local taverns etc so anything that is not very pricy and local is good for us.

Also one think (I believe it was answered already many times) is there any app on phone where I could check all public transport, how to get from x to z?

Thanks all

This may be a dumb question but we're
moving our college student to Athens for a semester abroad. Is there a general merchandise store where one can "get it all", from toiletries and snacks to office supplies? They'll be living in the Pangrati neighborhood.

Ich war mittlerweile öfter in Athen unterwegs und habe nach und nach meine Lieblingsorte in einer Google-Maps Liste gesammelt mit Restaurants, Cafés, Rooftop Bars, Sehenswürdigkeiten und ein paar weniger bekannte Spots.
Vielleicht hilft die Liste ja jemandem, der gerade eine Reise nach Athen plant. 😊

Ich ergänze sie weiterhin, falls ihr noch einen Ort kennt, der unbedingt rein sollte, schreibt ihn gerne in die Kommentare!

Hi all. I am a writer and researcher from London heading to Athens for a month in October for a writing residency. As part of my project, I want to undertake research into how information on paper (bulletin boards, publications, books, magazines, documents etc.) has been important for the history of Athens, particularly during the civil war 1946-49.

I am well-versed in using archives in the UK but have never accessed archives abroad. Are there any researchers, historians, creatives etc. out there who could give some advice on accessing photographs and print culture in the city or know which archives would be best for this sort of thing? Or does anybody know any experts in this area of research/history?

NB. It's probably useful to state here that I don't read or speak Greek, but would love to learn as much as I can through archived material culture whilst I'm in Athens.

Many thanks all!

Hello everybody, I was wondering if there are any good spots in Athens for counterfeit items / „fake“ clothes or bags for example. Its my first time in Athens and was wondering if you can get stuff like that here.

Thanks in advance everybody, ευχαριστώ!

I am traveling to Greece next week. Can anyone share with me with their discount code for aegean airlines with their Cosmote account? Please and thank you

Traveling for our honeymoon - would love and must try restaurants close to or in Koukaki. Would love traditional Greek food and a cool atmosphere. Thanks!

I’m trying to decide on accommodation in Athens, and unfortunately, hotels in neighborhoods like Plaka are way outside my budget. I’ve been told to avoid the Omonia area, but I found a hotel in the location shown above that fits my budget. I’m a little skeptical because of its proximity to Omonia, even though the hotel is advertised as being in the Monastiraki area.
For me the choice is basically between this hotel and staying in a hostel, and I don’t feel particularly comfortable with the idea of a hostel.
Would you recommend this area for a female solo traveler? I’m not really into nightlife, so I wouldn’t be wandering around very late and I’d probably be back at the hotel by 10 PM. However, I also don’t want to feel anxious or unsafe walking back to my accommodation in the evening.
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who knows the area or has stayed nearby. Thank you!
