Travel Tips for Suggested Trips in GreeceAthens, Athens & Attica, Greece If you head to Athens in the top of their summer, the city is a lot less crowded with large amounts on Atheneans leaving the city to spend time in the country. The parthenon is VERY slippery as the stones have been polished by the feet of millions of visitors over the centuries. The train system is incredible and goes all the way out to the airport. It is worth waiting for a train when you first get in as it will take you right into the city (or even to the plaka). Don't get caught out by the taxi drivers who are know to charge up to 200 Euro depending on how lost you look. Good tip?
