Overview

What is a better way to start one of your days in Athens than by watching and photographing the sunrise as it unfolds over it?
Find yourself at this magical early hour of the day at the right spot and capture the astonishing views of this historical city spreading beneath you.

We visit an hour before sunrise, the perfect spot that provides us with breathtaking panoramic views of Athens and her landmarks all lit by the beautiful Mediterranean sunrise light!
In this photo experience, I will guide you if you wish, into specialised photo techniques so you will come up with outstanding magical photos of Athens or I will introduce you to my city from this high-up vantage point and point out how to best capture the sunrise light!
This is a great experience open to anyone wishing to admire and photograph an Athenian sunrise either being a serious photographer or just a point-and-shoot one!

What's Included

  • Tea and coffee Espresso or juice
  • Snacks Fruits or Greek traditional cake or cookies!
  • If you are using a DSLR camera or mirrorless, you will be photographing using long exposures, so a tripod is kind of mandatory. We can provide a rental option
