Excellent summary of Athens, where I spent more than 10 years in the past. One thing to add: while there is a 50% reduced price for children (yes, all children, not just Greek ones!) in public transport, it is impossible for tourists to use it because the vending machines do not offer it, and you need to get the person registered, with passport, in order to get a permanent card and the "preload" it with some credit. This is only possible in very few stations, not at the machines, and the process is completely obscure to a tourist.

Great info, thanks! We just booked 5 nights/4 full days end of Oct/early Nov....I'm starting to feel I overdid it...? Hopefully the weather will be nice so we can go to Hydra, etc, otherwise I'm not sure how to fill the days😮. Well done on speaking English so well and very clear and understandable!

There is plenty more to do in Athens, especially if you like museums and typically in Oct/Nov the weather is still warm.

I am meeting my friends from the States in Athens next month to go on a Greek Isle cruise. I recently learned about the toilet paper thing. Unbelievable for me that many former oppressed Soviet countries, such as Czechoslovakia, Ukraine, Poland and Hungary, are more advanced in their infrastructure than Greece. They caught up to western Europe within a decade or two of the USSR dissolving. Come on, Greece!😅

It is because of a pre-existing ancient sewage system from ages ago. It is much easier to start from a clean slate than fix hundreds of miles of subterrainian plumbing.

I lived in Athens for 7 months and I am glad you mentioned don't put toilet paper in the toilet. I wish they would take care of that problem why is it like that everyone else puts it in the toilet. I have hurd everything from poorly trained plummers to poorly make tiolets what's the deal on that one please have a good day.
