Hi, I am Panos, have been working in the tourism industry and just like you I love to travel. I also like to talk about my favourite subjects, History, Philosophy, Politics, Arts and Sciences etc. Athens gave a lot to the Western World and i would like to explore with you the interesting stories of my birthplace as well as its rise and tragic fall. How did they achieve so much in so little time? And most important, what can we learn today from them? (For the virtual tour, keep in mind that you may ask a time that is more convenient for you, just send me a message with your email and your suggested hours!)
In this tour, i will be speaking live and we:
a. Will "walk" together virtually by many of the most important landmarks of ancient Athens and learn their story..!
b. Will have an overview of the city’s ancient history and discuss about its greatest achievements such as Philosophy, Democracy, Sciences, Arts etc.
c. Will examine some of the ancient philosophical theories under a new light due to surprising latest scientific discoveries
d. Discuss the ancient Democracy compared to the modern!
Look forward to start our journey! It can be at 19:30 Greek time (or later)
You can check the time difference here: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/greece/athens
You can send me a message asking for a different time.

Our virtual walk was fascinating. Panos took me to a trip down history and philosophy, was very knowledgeable and gave me food for thought to look up on my own. Highly recommended!
In this new world, where one can no longer walk the streets of a city due to the pandemic, I’ve found the next best thing – a tour/survey from the comfort of your own home. It was quite nice that I could hop on a video from the U.S. and be led through the history of Athens by a resident of the city. Architecture, philosophy, battles – much of what shaped the amazing ancient Athens were covered. Pictures and videos supplemented the discussion. Panos is warm and knowledgeable. My many questions were answered kindly – and I came away wanting to read more about the people and the history we covered. As the tour was quite enjoyable, it has made me want to next head to Athens to visit the many locations we talked about. That will be the first trip I make, after the world opens up again.
