- Plaka is the cutest neighborhood of Athens. But it's also the most difficult to navigate. Which alleys should you visit ? Where are those restaurants and bars on the step of the Acropolis ? In this video I'm showing you exactly where to go.

We took a private tour with Sebastian in Athens in October. It was one of the top highlights of our 2 week trip through Italy, Greece, and Malta. Our time with him felt like hanging out with an old friend. He ordered us a phenomenal lunch of traditional cuisine and took us on an amazing walking tour full of beautiful sights. He provided us with a ton of information about the history of Greece and Athens, as well as all the things we were seeing on our journey. He even helped us out with some tips for the next day in Mykonos. We came to Athens on a cruise and, over the course of our trip, did other tours through the cruise line. Booking this tour privately with Sebastian was a far better choice than the excursions offered by the ship. We had great food, got awesome photos, avoided most crowds, and had an amazing time! Sebastian was responsive, easygoing, relatable, super knowledgeable, and really fun to hang out with. It was an invaluable experience that we will always remember fondly.
We were just in Plaka last Sunday, I think some of the places you showed we walked at night,bustling with diners and people shopping and having a blast, it was awesome, I have been watching your videos before we went to Greece esp in Santorini where I followed exactly your guide how to find the blue domes and other things, and the rental car you recommended was great, picked it up from Port in Fira. Thanks for these videos! Very Very Very helpful, we had a GREAT AMAZING TIME, 2 weeks in Greece, lotsof walking and climbing and views are just out of this world LOL...we will be back!!!
My wife and I followed Seb's directions all the way. An excellent guide to the best spots. We also ate at Yiasemi, very eclectic and great food. Thanks Seb for creating such a useful guide!
Thanks for given us one more time these vibes of Athenes!
Thank you so much. Your videos helped my wife and I navigate Athens and we had a great time
thank you Sebastien! Very helpful video. All your videos are super helpful!
your guide is very amazing, every single video was very helpful thanks !
You're the best , Sebastian!
Another informative, succinct mini-tour from your channel -- thank you!
you are so good at what you do.
Yes, I agree the most competent and consistent travel guide channel. Fantastic and many thanks for the hard work. If possible, frightend by the feedback from many tourists I am considering renting an e bike rather then a car. It would be great if you could tell us more about touring the islands this way?
Apart from Agistri, Aigina and Hydra, I wouldnt recommend renting (e)bikes in Greece. Super hilly, speedy drivers, harsh sun ... not great.
I just got home from Athens, and because of your video, it was super easy to find the prettiest spots. Thank you.
Took your advice and loved it. We missed the two of the locations at west plaka.
Thank you !
Just taking a moment to say thanks for all your great videos 😊
Perfect- will be walking the Plaka next weekend. Thanks!
Hi! I just wanted to say that I have watched just about all of your videos and they have helped me so much in preparing for our upcoming trip to Greece! Currently obsessed with your channel! If you have the opportunity, I would love videos on other islands like Mykonos and Crete! Especially Mykonos because all the videos I have found are just about party party party, but I’m sure there is more to the island! But seriously great channel and videos!!
Hello, my husband and I are going to Athens. This will be our second trip and I can’t stop watching your videos. They are amazing. I sure hope I can see more of Athens on this trip than I have before. Thank you.
Love love ur videos. It gives information about the city like we know it... Beautiful city and wonderful videos
Thank you for this Sebastian. Just completed this walk. Wish we could have booked a tour with you.
This the best video to enjoy plaka's cute restaurants and all graffiti walls , cute colourful alleys and we also took the best picture at one of the most famous Instagram spot that you explained in video ( one with bougenvelia tree)
Hello, new to your channel.. thank you for this.. planning to visit Greece next yr for a month. Watching your video gives me more knowledge about the country. Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to watch more of your videos.
Found Anafiotika because of you, thanks alot!
Your videos are excellent, will be in Plaka mid October so following this video very carefully - also your other tips and hints of what to do in Athens - Thanks so much
We stayed 5 days in Plaka, it’s gorgeous! But…we didn’t see these sights! Thank you and we must book you if you’re available when we visit later this year
Hi❤ I was hoping to catch you while I’m here. No dates first week in sept. 😢 thank you for the videos! Helped tremendously
You are amazing! Thank you for the reply about driving in Greece. I have rented a car extended our stay to include Meteora and Delfi.
@greeceexplained thank you for this video and your other advice. We loved Meteora and this walk through Plaka!
So awesome
I have been to Athens many times and gone to the sites but it would be fabulous to have a private tour guide for the unexpected places a tourist misses. Maybe next time in Athens I will book you
Loved it! Could you please share the coordinates of "Highest point of Plaka"? So I can save it on Google Maps. Thank you so much for your content!

You mentioned Plaka places that have music. Have you ever done or will you consider to do a video on places if someone wants to go have dinner other than lPaka, where you can listen to live Laika or Bouzouki music? Or maybe even an Ouzeri? I'll be in Athens next year and I love Greek Music from the 60' 70's and 80's . Efkaristo poli
Yes it's on my to do list ! :-)
Hi! I hope your family, loved ones are safe.
I saw the new happened few days back.
I've been watching your videos as I have plans to travel there in end of October. Would you advise to cancel it or can still travel in some areas?
Thank you in advance
We will be in Athens Oct 17 and again Oct 27, would love to hook up for a tour.
Going in May, staying in Plaka - Kato Plaka, i guess. Gosh, this going to be hard on my back.
But it looks fantastic, and I very much look forward to not getting kidnapped in that narrow alley!
You do not navigate the Plaka, the Plaka navigates you. Just walk. Let your eyes and heart be you GPS. You do not walk the Plaka. You do not tour the Plaka. You slowly meander. You slowly explore.
LOVE IT, LOL!
I am a new subscriber. Thank you for your very informative and thorough videos. You seem to answer all the questions that I would want to ask. We’ll be traveling to Athens and Santorini next year. I garnered so much helpful information from your content that I could practically cancel the trip and save a lot of money! 😅
lol dont cancel it though ... :D
Sebi your videos are amazing! We are a group of 15 traveling to Athens, can you accommodate us all on one of your tours on Sat Sept 30th? Please let me know
Hey ! Hit me up on IG @sebi_the_guide or by mail sebitheguide@gmail.com
In a couple of days Ill be visiting Athens and Santorini, with possible side trips to Delphi and temple of poseidon. Were any of these areas affected by storm Daniel?
Not that I know of, no :-)
Hi , I need some info to travel Greece during 1 st week of may . Is it a good time to travel as Labor Day and Easter are coming in this week .plz advise me .
Dont count too much on public transport, and avoid flying or taking the ferry on May 1st. Apart from that, everything normal.
Hi Sebastian, we are 3 families (total of 8 adults) visiting Athens from July 19th to July 22nd before we depart on our Greece Cruise trip. We are looking for accommodations close to the attractions.
How much do you charge for a day guided tour?

Do you happen to have the coordinates? Thank you!
