Athens ratings & opinions
How our students rated their experience in Athens
What our students said about Athens
I think Athens is a great city to visit. It has a lively and exciting vibe. It is a great city to explore on foot especially in the old districts around the acropolis. There are many different, contrasting areas of the city to visit. Exarchia is lovely to explore in the day or in the evening and to sit out at a bar or cafe under trees. It's wonderful that Athens remains low rise and you can see the acropolis from all areas of the city. The sky remains open. There are not many parks and green spaces around the centre of the city but it's lovely to walk up Lycabettus Hill to enjoy the views or wander around the National Gardens. We enjoyed a lovely tram ride down to the seaside around Kalamaki beach which was beautiful. The water is still crystal clear and there are many lovely bars and restaurants along the coast.
It is a city that, by itself, is already interesting to discover. I consider that historically, together with Italy, it has a timeless importance. I consider that, regardless of their geography, the historical sites where great thinkers of humanity have been teaching and living that we still continue reading and apprehending today, is more than enough, at least for me.
Athens is a city of millions on a human scale: you can reach everything in the city centre on foot, there are no skyscrapers and no street jungles, the atmosphere is relaxed and the people are friendly. I'm always amazed at the clean metro stations. Totally different than Stuttgart. I can't comment on the nightlife ;-)
I already know the city a bit through my daughter who now lives there. My husband is Greek and therefore known through various trips and events, so I have a slightly different positive connection with the city.
Athens is a city with many districts of its own, plenty of nightlife, terraces and restaurants. Also for the culture lover there are enough museums and antiquities to visit.
Nice to have seen the city with its great history.... On the one hand interesting and casual, on the other hand a lot of police presence, dirty, noisy and congested streets.
I love Athens for it's diversity - a bit of everything, all close and mixed, all co-existing. A real city, with proud history, incredible beauty and modern challenges.
The atmosphere is good! The people are friendly, but also here, people who are really having a bad time. That 'belongs' to a big city, but it sometimes made me sad.
It is a very lively city, a bit chaotic and a lot of traffic, but with very interesting things. The food is great and the people are generally friendly.
Athens is in a way a juggernaut. You just have to get into the rhythm of the city, swing with it and pick out the points of interest for yourself.
