Recommended gastronomic tour - Good experience of tasting delicious Greek food in the company of an expert. We taste different dishes both sweet and savoury and also a typical liquor. Almost 5 hours walking, it was worth it

Great taste of Athens - Our guide, Kate, was informative, accommodating and proficient in leading this tour. She was personable and gave us a great overview of this area of Athens on our first day in the city. It was a great way to start our vacation. Oh and the food was great too- there was a lot of it, so go hungry!

Phílippos was an... - Phílippos was an excellent guide through Athens and local cuisine! He walked us around town, giving us some history and cultural insight, as well as showcasing foods unique to Greece. He adjusted the tour to introduce us to new things we hadn't already tried, and answered all of our questions. The highlights for me were the Greek yogurt dessert and the home-style dishes. After the tour, we returned to a few of the stops for a second try, or to buy souvenirs for home. I definitely recommend this for anyone new to Athens to get their bearings, some history, culture, and FOOD!

Great tour - Our food tour was great! Maria was wonderful hostess and we ate so much delicious food. Since our tour was on a Sunday we did not go to the market as most ours do but we had more food than we could possibly eat and learned much about Greece and Athens. Actually our tour did not start out great. We were told where to meet and t meet 15 minutes early. We arrived at the Acropolis Metro station over 1/2 hour early. Some of us stood there while others looked around. We did not know there are 2 Metro stations near each other and I guess we were at the wrong one so be sure to check out both stations. We watched closely for anyone that looked like a guide but never saw ours. After calling the company, Maria came and found us. The tour and Maria were great but feel the information on the meeting site should have been clearer as we were at the Acropolis Metro station on the second floor by the escalator but no one came for us.

To my sweet Kate from the family! ❤️🎉 - What an amazing tour! Kate was absolutely AMAZING – hands down the best guide I’ve ever had. She is so knowledgeable, kind, professional, and personable. On top of that, she has such a fun personality and keeps the entire experience exciting from start to finish. If I could pack her in my suitcase and bring her back to the USA with me, I would! Highly Recommend! ❤️🤗

Best Food Tour In Athens - There are so many food tours but this one was perfect. Lef was a perfect guide! He walked us through small neighborhoods of Athens stopping at points to taste pastries, cheeses, yogurt, dried fruits, nuts, pretzels, coffee made right in front of us, and finishing with a delicious lunch!! Told us a lot about Greece and the city of Athens! Felt like we were with a family friend. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a nice paced, fun tour filled with great food tasting experiences!!

Lots of different foods! - Maria was very informative, made the tour fun. I really enjoyed all the different foods we tried! To rate a 5, I would ask that she get the receivers so everyone can hear her. She didn’t always wait for the entire group to catch up with her before starting to talk, so I missed some of what she said. Her voice is not very loud.
