Great tour of Athens (for food and getting to know the city). - Great food tour. Highly recommend. The places were fun and unique - not places I would have found on my own. Our tour guide was Lef - he was terrific and really made the tour. Vegetarian options were really fulsome.

Vegetarians - pack some and eat out other times - Being vegetarians, we decided to pack some food from home for the night we landed in Athens and next day morning breakfast. After finishing Acropolis and Agora we decided to explore Athens streets and find any vegetarian brunch option close-by. We stumbled upon "Eatery Bairaktaris in Aiolou 29". Great Mediterranean food, loved their hot mint tea, fresh orange juice, tasty falafels, super soft pita breads, a bit greasy zucchini fries in a cozy street with amazing vibe all around. Same afternoon, we wanted to pick up Baklavas to bring back home and found "Konstandinidis". Their fresh baked bread loafs and so many varieties of Baklavas were out of the world.

Teacher approved! - Anna was an excellent guide, able to answer many questions we had even if not based on the dishes, and was very friendly and personable. She was also very considerate of any dietary restrictions and made sure we were comfortable going to certain areas (like the meat market). The variety of food sampled was a great experience, a much more accurate representation of Greek food than you'd find in the standard tourist affairs. Going to the different locations over the district was also very interesting. Made for a great last day to our Athens stay.

Much fun, very interesting, very tasty! - We booked a 4h-tour with Anna, starting mid-morning in a group of 3. We all got along very well since we were all very curious about athens and food. Anna brought us to places like a bakery for traditional bread, a coffee place for greek coffee (with a really nice view of the Akropolis), through markets and shops. We tried fruits, vegetables, pastries, olive oils, different kinds of olives, greek mezze, etc etc. Anna also showed us around and gave us an insight on food. She is a foodie and just knows the best places. I would highly recommend taking time for a tour with Food on Foot in Athens!

Awesome tour! - Anna gave us a tour of the historical centre as well as on Greek food. It was very informative and interesting, altering between food and beverage. We were very full at the end but were able to enjoy everything! Highly recommended.

Ate our way through Athens - We booked this tour as a “vegetarian food tour” and it was actually a mixed tour that included meat. This is the reason I did not rate as 5 stars as that should have been better explained in tour descriptions. Having said that it was a great tour and our guide was very knowledgeable. We got to sample many yummy things at 8 different stops.
