- Athens Tiare Hotel - Embark on a delightful three-hour journey into Greek cuisine! This walking tour offers an exploration of the everyday foods cherished by Greeks. Enjoy feta cheese, savory pies, sweet bougatsa, pita with gyros, skewers or soutzouki, and perhaps some fresh fruits or olives when the central market is open. Experience Greek coffee and sample Greek wine or beer while engaging in sports discussions like a local! The tour begins at Athens’ most multicultural spot, Omonoia Square, and proceeds towards the bustling commercial area of Athens. As we navigate the lively streets, we’ll arrive at the Central Food Market to savor some favorite Greek nuts and a spirit known as tsipouro, followed by a visit to the meat and fish market (closed on Sundays, but this won’t impact the tour). A must-try in Greece is meze (similar to tapas), which will be our next stop. We’ll wander through the charming streets of Psirri, a favorite spot for enjoying Greek coffee and discussing Greek coffee culture. Continuing through Psirri, we’ll reach another vibrant area to indulge in the delightful honeyballs!

Wonderful private food tasting experience! - This private food tasting tour was absolutely fantastic. Voula was an incredibly friendly guide and was very interesting to talk throughout the tour. She took me to several different locations in the centre of Athens where we enjoyed traditional Greek coffee, mezze, pastries, nuts, liqueurs and the delightful loukoumades. Throughout the tour, Voula explained the history and traditions behind all the foods and drinks we tasted, as well as explaining the history of the local area. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens!

Voula’s tour was wonderful! - I recommend taking a food tour with Voula. She was interesting and knowledgeable. She quickly made us feel like we were all friends. The tour was informative and fun. The places she took us to served delicious food. Voula’s pace throughout the tour was perfect. We had the perfect amount of time at each stop. She taught us about so much more than just food. We learned history and culture, too. This was especially valuable because her tour was the first thing we planned after arriving in Athens at the beginning of our stay.
My wife, our friends, and I all enthusiastically recommend Voula as a guide.

An amazing experience you simply need to try! - I had recently hosted for a few days my relatives from Japan. We had the idea of combining Athens sightseeing with a Greek food tour. After some research I ended up with selecting Voulas Tours. We had a conversation first with Voula to discuss food preferences and she tailored the food experience to the specific needs along with our sightseeing itinerary. I have no words to express my gratitude for such an unforgettable tour that my relatives simply loved it!! Her professionalism, her passion and knowledge was far beyond my expectations! どうもありがとうございます。

A Culinary Adventure Through History!!!!! - If you want to experience Athens beyond the ruins, this food tour is a must. Led by our friendly and knowledgeable guide, Voula, the tour took us through local markets, hidden bakeries, and traditional meze places we’d never have found on our own.
We started with a strong Greek coffee and koulouri, then sampled spanakopita, loukoumades, local cheeses, olives, and even had an olive oil tasting. Every stop came with fascinating stories about Greek culture and culinary traditions, making the experience both delicious and educational.

A great food tour in Athens! - I really enjoyed my walk in downtown Athens, and I tasted everything from souvlaki and feta to pistachios from Aegina (fystiki aiginis). Voula took me to several little shops selling Greek specialties.
