Part of the “This is Athens with a Local” programme on the City of Athens’ official visitor site, this walk explores the street art of the Historic Centre, Exarchia, Monastiraki, Psyrri and Plaka in about two hours. The Locals are volunteers, not professional guides: Athenians who show visitors the city they know. Book through the programme’s page.
