The transfer from your hotel in central Athens will take approximately 20 minutes. The tour will begin at the beautiful central park built in 1884, where you will enjoy a tour of the Kifissia district, one of the unexplored hidden gems of Athens and an area packed with restaurants, cafes, upscale shops, boutiques, historical buildings and pretty spaces. Highlights include visits to the local historic park, 'Varsos', a 'temple of traditional Greek desserts' one of the oldest places for sweets, patisseries and coffee in Greece, and the pretty central shopping area.

After exploring the central area, we will take a short 5 minute stroll to the Natural History Museum. A first class, modern museum set in a beautiful building with a walled garden courtyard. The exhibits in the museum are wide-ranging, from dinosaurs and mammals to butterflies and plants, all very thoughtfully displayed with many interactive features that both children and adults will appreciate. Finally, in the museum's beautiful courtyard, we can stop for lunch and relax under the shade of the trees and fountains. Set at an easy relaxed pace and highly suitable for families, this trip is also great for those looking to experience a different flavor of Athens.
