Creator's Key Takeaways

We stayed three nights in Athens to really experience the city.

We want to give a big thank you to Big Bus Athens for sponsoring this video and gifting us tickets to experience the city this way.

Lucumades are traditional Greek donuts that are drizzled with honey and cinnamon or in our case pistachio and chocolate and they're dangerously good.
