    Great view of Athens from the top of this hill, which has a restaurant- many take the funicular but you can also walk. Sadly it was a very cloudy day and the view wasn't as good as if it were sunny and we had hoped to see an amazing sunset- still was worth the trip

    Not so much a museum as a series of interactive illusions. Child friendly but it also means that you will have lots of children around you... being children!
    Staff on hand were great and helped explain what to do and take fun pictures. Not extensive time wise and you are time limited anyway but it's just about right and we all enjoyed it.

    After landing in Athens I had booked myself in this great place. If you can go and see women of passions, women of Greece! I loved it! Then I stayed for the dinner. The frame is great . The resto serves lots of Italian dishes, me being Italian I slipped them and went for the Greek options which are good. The cocktails not to be missed. Ask them to book you a taxi cause I tried to use beat was not successful and ended up with a non very honest taxi driver, but on this place it is top just go!

    It's more of a fun fair then a theme park, different wrist bands available to buy for different amounts if rides (Games they call rides games) you wanted to go on. We got the cheapest band which was for 7 rides but only 5 of the 7 were open (no discount given for some of the rides not running) not a total waste of time but wasn't like what we would call a theme park in the UK, was only there like an hour.

    On a holiday to Rhodes last year we were recommended Paradox Esacpe Rooms. Therefore one of our main reasons for visiting Athens was to do the escape room.
    It definitely did not disappoint, we loved that it was 3 hours long, these sort of escape rooms are soo hard to come by! We’ve completed over 30 escape rooms and this one is definitely one of the best!
    The price is brilliant, so cheap for a 3 hour room.
    We did it as a team of 6, we all absolutely loved the escape room!!
    Thank you so much, we can’t wait to come back to do your 2 other rooms!

    Used Athens Taxi transfers for 3 journeys, Athens Hotel to Piraeus, Piraeus to City Centre a week later, then hotel to Athens airport. I had booked in advance online, it was easy and no advance payment was required. Communication was excellent, Manolis messaged the day before each trip to confirm the details and the taxi arrived on time every time. Highly recommended for stress free journeys.

    Friendly and helpful staff, interesting and varied activities in the room. A short walk from Metro Station, but an inexpensive taxi ride if needed.
    Would definately recommend and return if we are able.

    So good! Try to get to an escape room in every city and this was by far one of the most original.

    Did it as a couple which is always more challenging than a group, but the host perfectly nudged us to help out whilst still letting us find the clues on our own.

    Highly recommend for new and seasoned escape room fans!

    We went to Athens Clue South and had a lot of fun! We’ve been to over ten escape room places and this place is the coolest set up and the rooms have great props and were a lot of fun. We did two rooms on different nights- the price is better than most escape rooms. One room had an actor in it- that was a fun twist. Overall a great experience!

    Lohan's restaurant was a cool vibe. Its located near Alimos, Athen on the Athenian Riviera. We had drinks and some apps in August 2019 with the family. Kid friendly and you can also catch sum sun on their beach front. I saw some windsurfing, but didn't try it out. The drinks and food are modestly priced for the area.
