French Language Schools in Athens - Ranking 2023

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.

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.

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.

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.

You really need to have archaeological interests. Other nice neighbourhoods and hotspots in the area: Piraeus, Sounio, Egina...

Athens is a great city. But a lot of refuges and in the evening , if you travel alone, it is uncomfortable to go outside.

Do not stop after the first impression because the city has such a great deal to offer and not only the antiquities.

I moved because of the view and could find better at just a little more

It is a wonderful city that is worth returning to whenever possible.

The city is absolutely exceptional. The city center is marvellous.

Nice city; sometimes a bit busy and then not Corona-proof.

Nice and exciting city...even in January.

I am happy to come back to Athens anytime
