      5 EUR entrance. Hosts everything found on or near the acropolis. The setup is really excellent and gives you a very good idea how the acropolis actually looked in both it's forms (before 480 b.c. and the form we know today).

    • @essolunapapa
      @essolunapapa Před 5 lety

      Yes, that was my most favorite place to visit when I lived there. It is probably the best place in all of Greece to see. Also, Mount Olympus is great, and the gold market there is a great stop. If you do go to Greece, get out to see the islands they are a must, especially for the young and single crowd! You won't regret it I promise!

    Your foodvlogs and travel guides are really insightful. Also, your video content is always really good. Its nice how you chose a variety of places to visit as well as foods to eat. Although, I cant wait to see you revisit some places you've visited in the past (india, china, etc) and discover new places for future vlogs.

    @shflnub Před 6 lety +3

    Mark, I think this is a great video format. Covers all bases and the information needed when travelling; plus having the added benefit of great restaurants. I was watching this thinking, 'damn I wish I had this when I was travelling to......'; I watch all your other food videos which also covers food more in depth for each destination but I think this would be a good for someone who is just looking for a quick guide to each city they plan to visit when planning their holiday.

    Hi Mark. Your videos have terrific content, information and tips for travellers and foodies, this one on Athens being no exception. I especially love that you covered transportation too. I planned my trip to Saigon, last month, based on your Saigon videos and had a blast. I'll be doing the same when I go to Athens next year. It would be fantastic, if you visit Santorini, before I make my way to Greece, as I hope to include Santorini in my trip. In any case, your series on Greece was AMAZING!!!!

    This is terrific to have as a reference. After all, when planning a trip, one may not have the time to go through the videos, especially for countries where you have made many, like Thailand. So more of these would be a plush. I have to remember to begin taking notes when watching your films!
