Rare alpencoolcruiser Posted June 9, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted June 9, 2023 My first time visiting Athens I find the neighbourhoods to be most interesting : and truly worth exploring if you are there. Here are some interesting ones. Plaka and Anafiotika. Check it out and decide if you want to include them in your pre or post cruise visit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
