If you love delving into the creative soul of a destination, this tour, created by Narratologies & Discovergreece.com is for you. The traditional crafts scene of Athens – handmade sandals, ceramics, musical instruments, hats, jewelry, weaving and more – is as exciting today as when it flourished in the 19th and 20th centuries. You’ll hear the personal stories of the craftspeople and visit their workshops (some third-generation family businesses and others brand new) in hidden gem spots of downtown Athens and in neighbourhoods you’d probably never discover otherwise. Plus a few architectural and cultural gems thrown in for good measure!
And don’t forget, this is not just an ordinary self-guided tour. This is a gamified exploration experience, where riddles and quizzes for each new place you visit, engage you more with your surroundings and make you discover even more exciting new things in each stop. The best explorer gets the biggest collection of gems and wins special rewards in our network of local souvenir shops and museums. Check out our handpicked collection of shops, they are really something!
