Athens is a relatively safe city. Keep these travel tips in tow so your trip can go off without a hitch. Though beautiful, it’s best to take extra caution when visiting Omonia Square, especially late at night. Green spaces throughout the city like the National Gardens are beautiful in the daytime, but minimal lighting at night means the areas can be rife with pickpockets. When considering the things to do in Athens after dark, walking in the gardens should be avoided. In any emergency, dial 112.
