Creator tips for Athens
Grabbing a multi-day metro pass is an easy way to keep transport costs down: an unlimited one-day pass runs about 4.10 EUR, and a five-day pass comes to roughly 8.20 EUR.
Street food such as gyros costs just a few euros and is fast and filling, so leaning on quick snacks can cover your meals for under 10 EUR a day.
Crowds at the Acropolis peak between 11am and 1pm no matter the season or your assigned timed-entry slot, so plan to show up as early in the morning as you can.
Athens Studios is a pleasant centrally located hostel-hotel that's an easy walk from the Acropolis, and it's where she based herself while backpacking through Greece.
