Athens

Place of Travel - Athens.

Airline/Transportation - EL AL. Can receive American Advantage miles from EL AL flights.

Hotel/Hostels - Hotel Phillipopos. Can see the Parthenon from your room. Nice cheap hotel. Under $100 a night and we had free breakfast, a nice clean room, and perfect location.

Time Spent - Thursday morning - Saturday night. Athens can be done in two days. We were stuck there for Shabbos. Left Motzei Shabbos.

Assistance for the Trip (guides, programs, Issta, etc) - We used Travelocity. No real need for guided tours while there. I suggest going to the Acropolis museum first and learning about the Parthenon first (costs 1 euro) and then go to Acropolis.

Jewish Sites -The Jewish museum is small but very nice. i davened there and found it meaningful. The more visitors the better. Its not a vibrant Jewish community.

Kosher Restaurants - We didn't find any. We couldn't even find vegetarian restaurants (we looked). There is Chabad in Omonia but we didn't stay near there. Its supposed to be a sketchy area at night.

Minyanim - Chabad in Omonia.

Recommendations/Favorite Sites - Acropolis was amazing. Downtown was cool at night.

Notes/Comments -Subway system very easy to use!
