Fabulous food in Athens

Published on Jan, 2025

We have done a few tours in European cities, which have all been good. But this one was the best. Our guide Tonia was amazing. She knew everything and everyone and we really felt like insiders rather than just visitors. Tonia’s English was fantastic and she was extremely entertaining. She did everything possible to make us feel special and help us learn about the food of the city she clearly loves. We actually saw how some of the food we tasted was made, which was so interesting. All the food was delicious and, although we have travelled for many years in Greece, we learned so much more in just a few hours about the country and the city’s food. I would thoroughly recommend this tour, but give one word of warning. DO NOT EAT BEFORE YOU GO! And pace yourself on the tour - you will not go hungry and you will eat some of the most delicious Greek food you have ever tasted. Thank you Tonia for making this such a great and memorable tour.
