REGISTERED BUSINESS: EL179333703000 Join this private photo tour to master street photography and capture the real character of this ancient and modern city. An authentic Athens city experience! Athens is most well-known for its ancient monuments, mythology, and history. For street photographers, though, it has more to offer than just history. This bustling city has an urban metropolis feeling mixed in with all that past. Power up your street photography skills with detailed mentoring on candid street portraits, witty observations, urban landscapes, and ‘decisive moment’ images. My 30 years of experience as a Press Photographer and tutor, immersing myself in every corner of Athens and having explored every facet of this beautiful art form, ensures that you’ll learn the art and secrets of photography and experience the city from an insider’s perspective. Either a pro photographer or just starting, you will capture stunning images of Athens to proudly share with friends and family!

What's included in Athens Private Photo Marathon
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Acropolis
Seeing the Acropolis is essential and the epitome of a visit to Athens. Live the experience of photographing one of the most iconic monuments in the world up close! Additionally, we throw in some street photography, taking advantage of the tourism scene and the crowds consisting of very interesting characters that provide photo opportunities and interesting juxtapositions. Also, great panoramic views of the city of Athens will add a nice background to it, as will impressive urban landscape photos.
Plaka
Through the scenic paths of Plaka at the foothills of the Acropolis, we discover the area of old Athens and the island-look area of Anafiotika. Everything under the warm Athenian sun that shines almost throughout the whole year! Our photo walk will pass by the most picturesque spots and reveal fantastic photographic opportunities!
Central Market Athens
This chaotic, colorful market in Athens is a magnet for photographers. It keeps an edgy vibe of Athens making it different from other European cities markets. It’s not the prettiest area, but it has a character to spare. The Athens’ Central Food Market will get you “life as it is” photos! ( and snacks all along the way!)
