Athens Happy Train, Athens

Description

Tours depart from the main square a take a route that covers much of the Acropolis and Plaka areas of the city.

Due to the nature of the vehicles they are allowed to travel down a number of roads that no other traffic is allowed down allowing much closer access to many of the key sights of the city

The tour stops by Hadrian's Library and again by the Acropolis and you can hop off at either of these sights and get back on another service

Tickets only do one complete round trip (i.e. you can't hop on and off all day)

A live guide gives a running commentary in Greek and English
