Great tour! Antonia is the best!

Published on Jan, 2025

Great food tour with many stops, Antonia was a wonderful, kind, and interactive guide. Got to experience so much we would’ve missed otherwise. Would recommend for anyone visiting Athens.

So much to love!

Published on Dec, 2024

So much delicious food! Kathryn (not sure that’s how she spells it) was an amazing guide. We tasted all the Greek specialties, learned to drink Ouzo properly, watched coffee being brewed on a sand table, and actually had to take away the gyro from the last stop because we couldn’t eat another bite! There’s a lot of walking, it’s mostly flat but somewhat uneven in places. We walked through the meat, fish, and vegetable markets, which are worth a look unless you’re vegan or afraid of huge cleavers. K gave us a good bit of Athens history and interesting local insights as we were walking, and of course it’s great to meet other travelers in a small group setting. Definitely take the tour group’s advice and don’t eat any breakfast - just a really delicious experience all around.

Best food tour in Athens

Published on Nov, 2024

Amazing tour. Our guide Anna was fantastic. Highly recommended and came with loads of advice about Athens and surrounding area.

Many stops - great variety of food, and very plentiful.

Published on Nov, 2024

Alexandra did a very good job on this tour! We walked through a couple of neighborhoods, saw a local meat market and stopped at many places to taste Greek food. One of the best stops was a restaurant where we tried several dishes served family style. After that (starting to feel full), we then each had a delicious gyro at Hoocut and finished off with some delicious donut desserts. This was a great sampling of Greek food and locations in Athens. More food than a typical food tour, so very good value. When they say don’t eat breakfast, it is true.

Fabulous, filling and fun

Published on Oct, 2024

A fabulous tour that you should not miss! The tour covers little samples of a range of Greek yummy food from traditional breakfast food to a full luncheon. Tonyia, our guide was the cherry on top, bringing to life Greek hospitality and charm. If you only have one day, add this tour to your list. Highly recommend.
