Rondreis Grieks traditioneel eten met kleine groep in Athene 20 + Proeverijen

We experienced a broad variety of local foods and learned a lot about Greek culture. The tour covered the whole spectrum of food types and dishes. Our guide was very knowledgeable, organized, and fun. A great treat for a group or family activity.

Had an awesome time- The food and restaurants were amazing I would recommend this tour with Michallis.

We really enjoyed learning the history of the Greek food and wine. It was very informative plenty of food, lots of new taste but good..

This was our second time taking this food tour, and somehow it was as good as the first! We first experienced it three years ago with friends and loved it so much that we brought our three adult children back to Athens specifically planned to do it again. What impressed us most was that the tour wasn’t simply repeated. Every stop except one was completely different, which made it feel like an entirely new experience. We visited markets, sampled incredible local specialties, learned about Greek food traditions, and discovered places we never would have found on our own. It was obvious that a lot of thought goes into keeping the tour fresh for returning guests. Our guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about sharing Athens through its food and history. Every tasting was delicious, from savory pastries and cured meats to olives, cheeses, seafood, and authentic Greek street food. We left full, happy, and with a much deeper appreciation for Greek cuisine and culture. If you’re visiting Athens, don’t hesitate to book this tour. And if you’ve already taken it before, book it again! The new itinerary makes it well worth a return visit. It’s one of the highlights of both of our trips to Greece, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

Come hungry. There is so much good food to eat. Our tour started off with a welcome message and very clear and easy to follow directions leading us to the meet up point. Árela was our guide and greeted us so warmly that it felt like meeting a friend. We sat and chatted while sampling our first tasting. We had spanakopita, a traditional cheese pie with leaks and fennel. The best part of that dish was the hand made phyllo dough. So flaky and good. We moved on through the market, stopping to notice how people of Athens buy their food and other items. The tour through the fish and meat market was amazing. Calamari and Octopus. Fresh fish. The other section had amazing steaks and pork chops. If I wasn’t on holiday, I would have bought plenty! Another stop at a small snack shop where we tried the pink pistachio and the Loukoumi, a jelly type candy (we bought 3 boxes to take home). We then went down a side street and tasted some local wine with some small samplings of saganaki cheese, pita bread, tomato, cucumber, olive, and chicken meatball. After, we went across the street to olive heaven. So many different kinds of olives. Sample after sample. So good. We followed that with the very best (and I am not exaggerating) feta cheese I have ever tasted in my life. I will never forget it. We then went to the fruit market and saw all the local fruits and vegetables. Stopped into an olive oil shop and learned how to properly taste olive oil and know the quality of it. After, we went to a honey shop. You have to try the lavender honey! At that moment we decided that we needed to find a way to check in a bag so we could take home the delicious honey and pistachio butter. The last stop was at a small family owned restaurant. We had a small meal of butter beans, beef sausage, orzo, calamari. We also had ouzo and Greek coffee with some fresh cherries on the side. The food was great but the time spent with our guide felt like meeting a long lost cousin who was excited to show us her home town in Athens. What a great experience!

Amazing tour. Excellent and knowledgeable tour guide, wonderful food. Real value for money. Highly recommend.

What an amazing experience! If Greece is a bucket list item like it was for us, you have to do this food tour while in Athens. It will not disappoint! Dimitri, our guide, was PHENOMENAL!! We truly couldn’t have had a better time. Dimitri was like a good friend filling us in on his stomping grounds. He met our group at our level and accommodated all of our needs and wants and then some. Wear loose clothes because you will eat so much delicious food and learn so much at the same time. I cannot recommend this tour enough, especially with Dimitri!!!!!

Kate was an excellent guide! She was friendly and easily approachable. She had an excellent sense of humor! We were impressed by how well planned the tour was. Every merchant knew we were coming and was prepared. The food was plentiful! We ate an entire meal’s worth including appetizers, main courses, desserts, and beverages. We highly recommended this tour if you’re interested in trying traditional Greek food in a safe and interesting environment

A very interesting and filling experience. Or guide Fotis was informative about both Greek cuisine and culture. Come hungry as there is plenty to eat👍👍👍

We had a fantastic time with Michalis, Rachel & the group walking the streets of Athens soaking up the sights, sounds, smells & locally produced foods of all types. The information shared throughout the tour was both interesting and very informative. We came away feeling extremely well fed and were even offered take away at the end of the tour. Days later we are still chatting with some of the other attendees we met on the day. If you are considering a food tour we would highly recommend Food Around Athens as a #1 choice. Thanks for a great day Michalis & Rachel.
