We have been on tour bus after tour bus in country after country and I will have to say this is the most fun I have had on any tour. Our guide, Anabelia, was amazing. She had a positive attitude, great personality and really knew her Greek foods. We ate, saw, and learned so much on this tour. Don’t eat before you go on this tour! They give you so much food. She will also help you make purchases in many of the markets you tour as well as the stops along the tour. We really enjoyed just sitting and chatting with Anabelia. She made our tour extra special once she found out it was my birthday. She called ahead and had a cake with candle waiting for me at one of our stops. She definitely goes above and beyond for her guests and we truly appreciated it.”

My husband and I booked this tour during our stay in Athens. Our tour guide was Katherine. She is excellent! Did an amazing job taking us throughout the city and explained everything in detail. Will definitely book again :-)”

Dorela was amazing. I decided to book this with my older parents and Dorela was extremely patient with my parents not walking a fast as younger people would. She's extremely intelligent! She knows multiple languages, and is knowledgeable in all areas of Athens. She even suggested a place to buy Greek traditional musical instruments in which we did. DO NOT pass on this wonderful, fun, and exciting tour to learn about the Greek way of eating and drinking!!!”

The tour was pleasant, informative, interesting and good tasting. We were brought to the older and local section of Athens (less tourist-oriented), where we sampled 3 different phylo delights, fried dough in honey and cinnamon, Armenian cured meats (which may appeal to some), souvlaki, greek coffee, etc. Our young tour guide, Irene, made the tour enjoyable too.”

Dorela was wonderful! She showed us parts of Athens we never would have seen on our own. Food was tasty and tour was informative and fun.”

Very good food tour, one of the best I've been on. We sampled some lovely food and our tour guide, Ana was brilliant. She was so friendly and very knowledgeable. You get a lot of food for your money, so much, that I couldn't eat the last tasting as just to full. Highly recommended and a great day out, walking around places in Athens that you just wouldn't find on your own.”

We spent a long, leisurely walk through several neighborhoods in central Athens sampling food and drink as we went. The wine and olive oil tasting was especially informative and tasty. More food than I could eat, but we were able to get a take away at our last stop. Highly recommend.”

Guide,Irene, Spectacular! Her knowledge and personality made the tour fun and educational. Now the beyond, we had a health issue while on the tour and she got a cab and took us to the hospital and stayed with us for the 3+ hours to translate and hold our hand, then got a cab to take us back to our hotel while she accompanied us to make sure we were o.k. Then checked in with us next day to see how we were doing. Cannot beat that for a tour guide and company! If there were more stars, we would give them!”

My husband and I had a fabulous time on our tour. Our guide had the perfect personality for the outing. She was wonderful! We walked all around town and tried several kinds of food and drinks. The most memorable being the coffee being made in the hot sand. We loved seeing Athens through her eyes. Thank you!”

This is an excellent food tour in Athens. I suggest doing this tour early in your visit to Athens to figure out where you would like to return and visit.”

We met our wonderful guide, Dorella, right on time in Monastiraki Square in Athens. She was a wealth of knowledge and had such an upbeat and positive energy which really set the mood for the tour. We toured delis, bakeries, the city meat, fish and vegetable markets, a cafe and olive oil and wine tasting and more - so much food we did not need our usual lunch OR dinner that day. Well worth the money and a great way to see many areas of Old Athens.”

Dorella arrived promptly and we got right under way. (It was just my husband and me for the tour - so VERY personalized!) Dorella was so personable and pleasant and full of interesting information. As others have described - for this tour we visited at least 6 (may have even been 7 but we lost count) wonderful little cafes, coffee shops, eateries and bakeries. She also brought us through the maze of the surrounding neighborhood to see two of the local meat and fish markets. Dorella was a most outstanding tour guide with a very solid knowledge of the area and each place we visited. (Of course, you would expect such - but there are no guarantees. ) While a consummate professional, she was also personable and endearing and made us feel so comfortable. The tour itself had such a great variety of tastings and we couldn’t have been happier.”

This tour was one of our favorite memories of Athens. Eirini was knowledgeable, fun spirited, and entertaining. The food selections included all of the items we’d wanted to try while in Greece. Highly recommend 🙂”

My sisters and I had the pleasure of having Eirin as our guide. She showed us the city with great humor and knowlegde. All of the food and drinks throughout the tour was absolutely amazing. We were given recommendations for places to see and most importantly places to eat (one was the restaurant "Ella"). We got an insight into the world of Greek food and history. We enjoyed the tour and the opportunity to meet with a local and see the "everyday" Athens. It's truly an experience you shouldn't miss out on!”

Daphne was the perfect tour guide! We had a great time with her and learned a ton about food, drink and Greek culture in general. She was very open and let us ask a ton of questions. She also provided lots of other recommendations for our time in Athens...all of which were excellent! Highly recommend!”

Our guide was nice and took us to places we wouldn't normally visit. It's a lot of walking and I'm glad we did it to taste different items that we wouldn't normally order or try. We also visited a lot of non-food places like churches, so be mindful. My favorite was the light and airy donuts that weren't too sweet. By the last stop, we were so full we couldn't eat the Gyro/Souvlaki she took us to. So much history and a fun way to walk around Athens.”
