Athens Night Sightseeing Tour with Greek Dinner Show
Athens, Greece
Fuel your appetite with a night-time tour of Athens, before relaxing with a Greek dinner show. Taking place at a typical taverna in the renowned Plaka district, it's the perfect way to finish your night out in Athens!
Your evening tour commences with a relaxing panoramic drive through central Athens over to Acropolis, which you will see lit up against the night sky. Browse over 60 artifacts and reconstructed musical instruments from Ancient Greece.
Continue through the narrow pedestrian street of Plaka in the old city of Athens. Here you will dine in a typical Greek restaurant and enjoy a folklore show with live music, ballet and dancers in traditional Greek dress.
Loved Angelina as a tour guide, she was very sweet and knowledgeable. The views and places were amazing and learning about their history was even more rewarding. As far as dinner, I was not impressed with the food or the show, specially the Mama Mia rendition part. I wanted more Greek authenticity in relation to the food and the show.

Athens @Night, hmm..._br/_ This is not what you think and its not what you want. First you get on a bus, stop for a 10 min photo op near the Acropolis before heading to the Tavern. The food was not good, too many tables and chairs crammed together with barely any room for the servers to move about. Show was decent but the grand finale was a joke. Everyone does not have the opportunity to break a plate. After the show we were advised we had to walk back to our hotel pickup spot. Save your money, find a local spot with a great roof top view of the city, sit back and enjoy the food and night life. Purchase an inexpensive plate from a souvenir shop so at the end of your evening you can break it and yell OPA if the mood strikes you. This is what I wish we had done.

Was an average tour - the traditional folk dance and music was lively and the highlight of the evening. The food for dinner was very lacklustre and ordinary - overcooked meat, underwhelming options and over crowded restaurant. The first half of the tour was a nice short introduction or re-orientation with the important landmarks in Athens. There are better restaurants than the one on this tour to try out authentic Greek cuisine in downtown Athens for half the price!

This tour was a joke. It was planned to start at 20:15 and to finish in app. 3 and half hours. The tour started at 20:00 and ended in 23:00 with picking up the people from the hotels in Athens 30 minutes. The bus stopped near the park and we watched the Acropolis from below, while the tour guide girl explained us about an hour what the Greek names of landmarks mean. Then we went at 21:40 to tavern at the most romantic street in Athens, as we were told. The entrance of the tavern was opposite to car parking. The tavern itself was big enough, but the tables were so close to each other that there was no room for you to sit comfortably. Food was dry and tasteless, The dishes were dirty. The only good thing was the wine. The show program was tragically bad._br/_ If you are looking for something interesting and memorable to do in Athens, SKIP THIS TOUR!

Got driven around Athens at night. Went to the Olympic Stadium to take some pictures. The Greek Dinner Show was fun and we got to try some traditional greek food.
Review by: Cathryn M, November 2017
Great tour, tour guide and show.
Review by: Stephen H, November 2017
The title is a tad deceiving. You will see a few sights, but at a distance. Angelina was a wealth of information and the bus driver was a master driver going through the narrow streets. The restaurant was very entertaining and touched on many dances from across the greek world. Food was ok, all samplings of greek traditional food, so more than appropriate. Slow pace, low impact,
Review by: Jose G, November 2017
It was a comfortable air conditioned bus guided tour of the city at night. The dinner show was lively and entertaining. They had guest come up to the stage and dance with them. The food was very good, tasty and well prepared. Just note the tables and chairs at the restaurant were not the most comfortable. They're small not suitable for tall or big guest...
Review by: yhough, November 2017
The dinner show was lots of fun. But, the food was just okay and the portions were small.
Review by: arvwestview, November 2017
Lot of fun!!! Everyone gets up and dances and the food was awesome!!!
Review by: Joseph B, November 2017
Seeing Athens at night was a great experience and definitely different from in the morning. However, the dinner and cultural show was the highlight and such a fun experience! Highly recommend A’s the food was amazing and the show was even better! Do this tour and you won’t regret it!
Review by: postroviesky, October 2017

Informative and entertaining
Review by: leb8680, October 2017
An enjoyable night of food and dance. Dancers danced for two hours non-stop. Dancers and musicians were all experts and knew how to entertain with music, costumes and dances from different parts of Greece. Food was served on platters to be shared with a table. Portions were small, so equal division was difficult. Quality was ok, but about what would be expected at such a tourist event. Best part, since we were with a tour company regularly attending the event, we were given the best seats._br/_ Night sightseeing tour was really just a drive to the show. With tinted windows and bus lights on as the guide took dinner orders, little could be seen. Did stop for the changing of the guard. A must see event.

Sights at night were spectacular and the dinner show was amazing coupled with great food and a great guide.
Review by: Heidi D, October 2017
Was really fun.....dancers provided a real Greek experience!
Review by: Efraim T, October 2017
The only good thing was the show..The toir was limited and very late.They do take you back to your hotel._br/_ The food was terrible. They told you that if you . _br/_ want fish it will take more than an hour. OTHERS SELL THEY SAME TOUR CHEAPER
Review by: Ann R, October 2017
Warning - cash only if you order wine! The food is adequate at best but the male dancers and the musicians were awesome. The rest of the entertainment was pretty marginal but we did enjoy getting up on stage to dance.
Review by: Jennifer B, October 2017
Less Tour than. I. Imagined and found the show just too noisy. There was no break in the exceedingly loud music. The performers however were good and the food tasty.
Review by: Jorge V, October 2017
About the sightseeing is something that you finally will not feel satisfied with because you only have 2 stops and in one of them you see the acropolis from a very long distance. The food was not good also but the show was very nice and funny. At the end it seems that you just had a ride for dinner. It is not worth it.
Review by: Arturo V, October 2017
Tour was okay could've been better like more time to take pictures at the stops.
Review by: christypurser, September 2017
The food was cold and the dinner was so cramped you couldn't move. Don't waste your time on this tour.
Review by: CARLA M, September 2017
The dinner and dinner show were good but it was hard to hear the guide in the bus and outside, at times, he walked so far ahead that we couldn't even tell if he was speaking or not. They also took us to the Olympic stadium at night. It wasn't lit so we couldn't see anything. I don't know why that's part of the night tour. The guide also left us to walk several blocks back to our hotel and we got lost. Parts of this tour were fabulous, parts were just so so and others were just bad.
Review by: rosharwood, September 2017
This trip was a disaster. There were two landmarks that made up the sightseeing tour, the Acropolis and the Olympic Stadium. The view we were given of the Acropolis was poor and we had a better view of this from our hotel window. We had to look through trees to see this building from the bus tour. At the Olympic Stadium, it was in darkness. We were given ten minutes to take photos but this was impossible as it was in darkness. The lights were turned on when we had to be back on the bus. A big disappointment. But worse was to come._br/_ For the dinner, we had to walk a long distance. The waiter could not describe the meals available and we could not hear him over the floor show. I could not eat much of the meal. The plates were not cleared from the table between courses so were piled high by the time desert arrived. This was deep fried pastry! Nothing else served with it. No coffee or tea. At this point in time, I joined another couple of guests to leave the table and the show and to wait outside till we left. At this point, with four of us outside, the guide came out to find out if there was a problem. We told him of our disappointment with the evening. _br/_ As this was our last night of a 5 week holiday in Europe, we were hoping for a great night of Greek culture and festivities and were very disappointed that this did not happen. In the future, my experiences tell me to avoid restaurants that cater only for tour groups as they do not meet satisfactory standards of hospitality.
Review by: Okourgi, August 2017
The walking there was nice, the show was great since it is traditional singing and dancing, but the dinner wasn't any good. the food and the wine was awful, very bad, served in very little quantities. If you go to the usual restaurants on the street you can eat better. Personally, I didn't eat. you had better maybe brought your own food or ask for the restaurant before going there.
Review by: Leolani K, August 2017
Angelika was AMAZING. Knowledgable about the history and her love of her Greek culture was evident. She was fantastic. The dinner was amazing as was the show. I would highly recommend this tour.
Review by: douglas s, August 2017
The trip involved looking at the old Olympic stadium in day light, the Acropolis after sunset and a dinner and entertainment in a Greek restaurant.
Review by: Angel R, February 2017
great night tour, the restaurant was mediocre at best.
Review by: michaelbeattie58, December 2016
The food at the restaurant could have been of better quality. But it was still a wonderful night of touring and energetic dancing.
Review by: Mahmoud E, December 2016
it is very nice night and lovely guide
Review by: Marta H, November 2016
Fabulous! You must do this trip.
Review by: Ann M, November 2016
Not worth the trouble of taking a taxi to the meeting spot. Saw the sights in the day on the hop off hop on . The meal was ok
Review by: Anne A, October 2016
This was well worth it - what an enjoyable night of sightseeing and then on to the dinner and show. The music and dancing were great - we were so busy watching that we didn't eat as much as we had wanted to! Highly recommended.
Review by: Ina R, October 2016
Didn't see anything but the parthenon. Guide was not very well informed. Food was very good though.

First class
Review by: Nechanitz1950, September 2016
Save your money. Tour agent picked us up in a bus. We drove around Athens to a spot where we could see the Parthenon from a distance. Parthenon is closed at night. Then, we got back in bus and drove to see the Olympic stadium. Tour guide talked about a lot of stuff...mostly to kill time before we could go to the restaurant. We got to restaurant and were rushed through a menu of food not memorable menu. Although there were not that many people at the show, we were unable to sit close to the dance floor and had to stand to see the performers. My suggestion is that one should forget about the dancing and go to a roof top restaurant such as theRoyal Olympic Hotel and celebrate the fantastic view with some nice wine and food._br/_ Note: we have gone on many Viator tours and this is the first time we were disappointed.
Review by: imaginekrf, September 2016
WE saw very little of the city sites_br/_ Not what we were Expecting_br/_ THe food was very average, we could have done better on our own in both accounts
Review by: Duane A, August 2016
The tour was very good. First we saw the lights of Athens followed by dinner and a dancing show. The dancing show was excellent and the Greek food was very good. We had a very good time.
Review by: Litoindc, August 2016
This is the one tour that let us down. It took forever to get to the restaurant, which was not very good. It was hot, the food was terrible and the wine was worse. Our table was at the very end and on the side of the stage, so we had an obstructed view. The restaurant only took cash, no credit cards, which we did not know until the bill came. Would not recommend at all.
Review by: rexw77, August 2016
Enjoyed the tour, could have started 30 minutes sooner to provide more time to see more of Athens.
