Don’t skip this food tour! The food is fantastic, and our guide, Ilias, PHENOMENAL! He had a great energy and sense of humor - not to mention passion! I can’t imagine a better guide to the fresh, flavorful, delicious Greek cuisine. He was SO warmly greeted at every location we visited and by many on the street as we walked between locations. More than one person said he was “the best” food guide. We couldn’t agree more!!! TY again for such a special experience.
Thank you for choosing Secret Food Tours! Knowing we could add something memorable to your time away from home is all we could ask for. We'd be delighted to welcome you back.
This was incredible! And Ilias, our guide, was exceptional - great energy, funny and passionate. More than one person we passed on the street greeted him and told our group he was “the best” food guide. The small group quickly got to know one another, and we had a blast together. AH-MAZING food and delightful company. Don’t skip this!!!
Thank you for making us part of your travels. The city will always have more to discover, and we'd be happy to explore another corner of it with you one day. We hope to welcome you back to Secret Food Tours!
Ileas was the perfect guide to the different delicious servings of Greece. He show us places we never had seen without his help.

Ilias was a fantastic guide with great knowledge, amazing variety of food and well worth the price :)
It was a pleasure to have you with us. The city has countless stories to tell, and we're glad we had the opportunity to share a few with you. We'd be delighted to welcome you back to Secret Food Tours!
Our family reunion of 10 had a fabulous time with Ilias wandering the streets of Athens enjoying a variety of food and drink samples. Ilias seemed to know everyone and was such so entertaining. He was a perfect food tour host who enlightened us about so many things Greek!
Thank you for choosing Secret Food Tours! It's always satisfying to know a few hours together became a memorable part of your travels. We look forward to welcoming you back.
We (family of 4 with 2 teens) had a great time on our food tour with Nick. We learned some Greek history as well as information about the neighborhoods and local restaurants. The food we had was excellent. We enjoy Sectet Food tours because it goes beyond the standard types of food and we tried placed and foods we wouldn’t have otherwise known about. Highly recommend!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! Knowing we could play a part in such an enjoyable time in the city is feedback for our entire team. We hope you'll join Secret Food Tours again soon.
Nicolas was great. So many bites and bevs; impossible to finish them all (I tried!)
It's always a pleasure to hear how our guests experienced the tour. Your comments are sincerely appreciated and will be shared with the team. We'd love to welcome you back to Secret Food Tours!
This experience was amazing! Maria was a delight - I learned so much and the food was DELICIOUS. A must do if you’re in Athens!
It was wonderful having you with us. We're pleased to know the tour became one of the highlights of your time in the city and appreciate you sharing that with us. We look forward to welcoming you back to Secret Food Tours!
Maria was a great guide! Everything was delicious.
It means a lot that you took the time to write to us. We’re glad you enjoyed the tour. We look forward to welcoming you back to Secret Food Tours!
We have booked Secret Food Tours in multiple (I can think of no fewer than 10!) locations, starting back in 2019. Our Athens tour was by far our favorite, due primarily to our guide, Ilias. He took his job as our guide to his city and his culture VERY seriously - he genuinely made us feel like the entire tour of 12 people were his family members (as did the proprietors/servers at each of the locations he took us to). I can’t recommend the tour enough - cross your fingers that you get paired with Ilias!
We’re pleased you chose to spend part of your time with us. Thank you for sharing your experience. We hope you’ll join Secret Food Tours again!
