Tour dell'Acropoli Mitologia & Cibo

We absolutely loved our Alternative Athens food tour with Antigoni. She was knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely pleasant to spend time with, and she did a great job making everyone feel included. She learned everyone’s names, spoke with each person in the group, and made a point of taking everyone’s preferences into account throughout the tour. The food was delicious and there was a great variety, from olive oil tastings and local desserts to a full meal and a gyro. One of the highlights was trying a mastiha macaron, which was completely new to us and something uniquely Greek that we probably never would have tried on our own. We also really enjoyed learning about the different olive oils and actually tasting the differences between them. Beyond the food, Antigoni gave us a great overview of Greek food culture and the local area without ever making it feel like a lecture. It was a really nice mix of eating, walking, learning, and getting to know Athens a little better. We had a great time from start to finish and would absolutely recommend this tour, especially with Antigoni as your guide.

We had an overall exceptional experience with the Acropolis Mythology & Food Tour. It was an excellent way to experience Athens! We were guided at the Acropolis by Demi and on the food tour by Elena. Both guides did a wonderful job!! The group for both tours was small enough it was easy to ask questions and participate. We heard a lot of fun facts about the monument and mythology in the morning. We got to see a lot of the city on the walking portion of the food tour which gave us exposure to the ambiance of different neighborhoods. Our one complaint was that the two tours were separate, rather than one continuous tour. This meant someone from the office guided us from the end point of the Acropolis tour to the starting point of the food tour. The walk from one point to the other was nearly one mile and at a fast pace due to another participant's delay. This meant we started the food tour sweaty, tired and slightly irritated. Having one continuous tour or a closer meeting point to start would have made the process smoother and more enjoyable.

The guides for this tour, Pavlina for the food tour and Mariana (?) for the Acropolis Mythology tour were both outstanding. Very knowledgeable and personable. We saw parts of Athens we might not have seen otherwise and certainly we would have walked through some of it without knowing what we were seeing had we not had the guides. The food tour included many types of food with explanations of their history and significance and you will not leave hungry.

Joseph was a great guide very knowledgeable and kind ! I recommend this tour ! A lot of walking but worth it

The culinary tour allowed us to discover the city of Athens and Greece from another angle. We were well accompanied by our French-speaking guide NIKOS who gave us, besides the tastings, explanations, recipes, and addresses.

Our family had a fantastic time on the Acropolis and walking food tours. Both guides were exceptional and so knowledgeable about the history of both the acropolis and Greece. Acropolis tour had a good amount of history and fun facts combined. Walking food tour had heaps of great food and the history behind it. We definitely didn’t leave hungry. Would highly recommend.

We took two excursions: "Culinary stroll" and "Mythological Athens." A big thank you to our two guides, Nikos and Emilia, who passionately and enthusiastically introduced us to Athens, its history, mythology, and contemporary culture. The culinary stroll was our favorite in Athens: a blend of history and culinary art, another way to discover Greek culture. Thank you also for all the visiting tips and recommendations for Greek restaurants. The visit to the Acropolis is no exception: it is simply fantastic and allows for a better understanding of the richness of Greek heritage. We recommend these excursions without any hesitation. Thanks again for these wonderful moments of discovery and sharing.

Maria and Andreas were excellent tour guides. They were both very engaging and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about Greek history and enjoyed wonderful food.

This food tour was such a precious experience. I was introduced to several hidden local spots with long traditions that I would never have discovered on my own. The food and desserts were wonderful, but what made the experience truly special was learning the stories and history behind each place. It made everything taste even more meaningful and memorable. This tour really showed me the true value of what a food tour can be.

This is a fun and delicious tour. We got to see many interesting and historic sights while also leaning about the origins of the food we ate. Andreas was a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Highly recommend.
