A cold evening light slides along the façades of central Athens as you step from the metro into the hum of a holiday market — chestnuts roasting, vendors arranging ornaments, a guide pointing out a line of hand-painted icons. This private two-hour tour threads Omonia’s festive stalls, Varvakios’ bustling food stalls, Korai Square’s family-friendly events, and the illuminated expanse of Syntagma, where the square’s history hangs palpable in the air.
