Day 11 and Day 12 Bye Bye Athens and Qatar Airlines transit Doha Airport

Day 11, our last morning in Greece, we stayed in the same hotel as our first night in Athens. The morning buffet breakfast is sumptous and lots of varieties. So sad we had to leave Greece, our holiday has come to an end.

I enjoyed my trip in Greece, is really a very beautiful country.

After breakfast, we were whisked to our bus to leave for the airport. We spotted a bicycle marathon just outside our hotel. And our last day in Greece, it started to rain. We were so lucky that it only rained on our last day.
Image

Image

Image
Finally, we are in Athens Airport bidding farewell to beautiful Greece. We need to transit in Doha Airport , so the journey from Athens Airport to Doha Airport is about four and half hours.
Image
We were served lamb curry with rice and it tasted so good. After about two weeks of non Spicy food, looking forward to some curry hahaha.
Image

Image
Qatar Airlines seat is very spacious and I have no problem with the long journey.
Image
The flight from Doha Airport to Singapore is about seven and half hours.
Image
We were served curry again but this time is with chicken.
Image

Image
One hour before touch down, we were served some hot snacks. It was kind of like chicken pie.
Image
Well, this is the end of my Greece travel story. I am blessed that 2025 is  very kind to me, I travelled to few countries.

Here looking forward to 2026 for more travel stories and praying for a healthy body as I am aging hahaha.

Keeping a blog to document my travel stories will help me remember where I travelled to and looking back at the fond memories I made during my travel.

Modern Greek cuisine in Sense Restaurant located in Athenswas Hotel. It has a beautiful view of the Acropolis from the terrace of the restaurant.

Image

Image
The kitchen is a open concept and we could view the Chef cooking and preparing the dishes.
Image
The staff served us the dishes and gave an introduction of each meal and how to eat the meal. A whole good experience of Modern Greek cuisine. I could not remember the name of the dishes haha.
Image
Starter, it was presented on a nice stand (I thought the stand was a pot haha), it tasted a bit salty
Image
Next was a tomato soup which was very sour but we need to mix with side ingredients of nuts, etc and it balance the taste of sweet and sour which actually tasted good.
Image
We actually had to break open the pumpkin lookalike and out ooz the soup


The next dish looked like a dessert but was actually spaghetti
Image



Bread
Image
Could not remember what this is
Image
Next is the main dish that was chicken and actually tasted good and well presented.

Day 10 - Santonrini to Athens Part 1 - Factory Outlet in Athens

Transfer to Santorini Airport for our flight back to Athens. Upon arrival in Athens, we visited the Factory Outlet where we can find designer brands 30% to 70% cheaper.
Image
We shop a little for souvenir in Santorini Airport. Spotted some Greek Chocolates but we did not buy. We planned to buy the chocolates on our last day departure in Athens Airport.
Image
The air stewardess in the domestic plane from Santorini Airport to Athens. It was only about 1 hour flight so no drinks or food served. Hand carry bag are free and allowed one piece only, please do not carry big bags or big luggages up the plane, they will charge if it did not meet the airlines requirement on the size of the bags. Saw one couple need pay 60 euro for their oversize hand carry luggage.

After one hour of flight, we landed in Athens airport  and soon we visited the premium outlet in Athens.
Image

Image

Image
We had lunch at Goody Fast Food restaurant. (Goody fast food restaurant is quite famous in Athens according to the guide.)

Their burgers are really huge, one burger can easily shared by two people hahaha. The price is quite reasonable. We had two burgers, drinks, french fries and onion rings and cost us around S$30+ for four of us.

If you ever visit Greece, you just have to try their burgers, it is really tasty and huge.

After a quick lunch, it was shopping time.
