Dark side of mythology tour around Athens - We ended up having a private tour due to others not showing up. Michalis was a wonderful story teller and made the experience very interactive. We learned about some of the dark side of the gods which was fun, while walking around the Plaka and Acropolis area, which was amazing at night. I would recommend this tour and would go on it again as well!

Our guide was amazing — kind, respectful, and genuinely funny, which made the tour not only spooky but super enjoyable. He was an incredibly engaging storyteller, bringing each tale to life with vivid detail and suspense. What stood out most was how thoughtful he was — it really felt like he tailored the stories and experience just for us. We learned so much about the darker side of Athens’ history, and it was all presented in a way that was both informative and thrilling. Highly recommended if you’re looking for something unique, immersive, and unforgettable in Athens!
