One of the most important monuments here is the Acropolis. When the sun touches the cobblestone streets along its base, the view is majestic. The city begins slowly compared to most other cities of the world. As the day progresses, you will find the homes, markets, and sidewalks coming to life. With the onset of evening, the air is filled with the rich aroma of spiced lamb and music from nearby taverns, dance clubs blast rock music amidst ancient columns of the Parthenon illuminated for all to see. However before you are overexcited and want to rush to the holidays waiting for you, it is important that you keep in mind these simple Athens travel tips.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>When to visit Athens<\/h2>\n<p>The best time for visiting the city is either between March and May or from September to November. The summer is when Athens gets a large footfall, but if you are not much of a hot sun loving person, then it is preferable to come in spring that is September. You might miss out a festival or two but the spring beauty will more than make up for it. But if you want to plan a completely different time of the year then go for the winters that are between December and February. The winters here are mild given the Mediterranean location.<\/p>\n<h2>Athens Travel Tips<\/h2>\n<p>Here are the travel tips for Athens that will help you through any tight spot in Athens, or more like ensure that you do not get into them.<\/p>\n<h3>1.

Yet beware of taxi drivers who charge you exorbitantly higher prices. To avoid this, step into those taxis that use taxi meter. Get a licensed guide if you want a guided tour around the monuments you visit otherwise. Check their guide ID. Even in the restaurants be careful as waiters will leave dishes on your table that you did not order to \u2018enjoy\u2019 and charge you later in the bill for it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Suggested Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/places-to-visit-in-mykonos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">10 Places To Visit In Mykonos For An Ideal Vacation In The Picturesque Island Of Greece!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>4.

It is very easy to avail a taxi from the road, at the taxi station or simply use the taxi app for more convenience. The app for hailing a cab is known as \u2018Beat\u2019. This app allows you to get a cab whenever you want and at the same time, you get to choose your driver for the trip \u2013 that way, as a tourist you get an English speaking cab driver. It will smoothen your ride.

Apart from that, Omonia Square is a well-known area for pickpocketing. Among the most important Athens travel tips, you must be very cautious when you are visiting this place in the evening.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Suggested Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/best-resorts-in-greece\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">12 Best Resorts In Greece That Make You Feel Like Royalty<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>6. Late night life<\/h3>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-196025\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Late-night-life.jpg\" alt=\"Life Night\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpixel.net\/static\/photo\/1x\/Life-Nightlife-Athens-Evening-Night-Shopping-2455906.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You might find this a little bit strange, but when one says so it means that the evening starts at midnight. The Greeks have a tendency to live late and tend to go out at around 2 am. Prior to that, they might be having a slow dinner or a long session for getting ready. The party ends only when the sun begins to light up the eastern sky. This should, however, be an interesting event for all party goers.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Personal safety<\/h3>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-196026\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Personal-safety.jpg\" alt=\"Personal safety\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.pixabay.com\/photo\/2018\/10\/05\/20\/52\/greece-3726819_960_720.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another matter of concern for you should be your personal safety. The north-western part of the city is considered less safe so it is better to avoid the place if you are on foot. Apart from this, the city is riddled with demonstrations and strikes. It is important that you get yourself well informed before embarking on a journey here. You will come across more demonstrations on important days like the as Labor Day on May 1st and November 17th when university uprisings took place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Suggested Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/hotels-in-greece\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">10 Hotels in Greece That Are A Treat For The Senses!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>8.

The ones most frequented by the locals are found at the base of <a href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/greece-tourism\/athens\/places-to-visit\/acropolis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Acropolis<\/a>. These are the traditional mom and pop restaurants. The traditional dishes that you must not miss out here are moussaka (lamb and eggplant in a bechamel sauce), souvlaki (skewered and grilled lamb, pork or goat wrapped in pita and commonly topped with lettuce, tomato and a yogurt-based sauce called tzatziki) and baklava (crushed nuts and honey in phyllo dough). These dishes are extremely well served in some of the traditional restaurants found here like the like Lithos, Oineas and Psaras Traditional Restaurant, which is the oldest restaurant in Palka. Try the seafood as well, especially the ones found at the eateries located in Piraeus by the Mikrolimano fishing harbor. Some of the well-known eateries focused on seas food are Varoulko Seaside, Margaro, and O Giannis Fish Tavern.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Further Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/greece-honeymoon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A Honeymoon In Greece Is All You Need For A Perfect Beginning Of Your Married Life<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>These should help you through planning the trip accordingly, and help you enjoy the city fully.
