My goodness, don’t miss this good tour if you really want a wide swath of introductory foods in Athens! Our guide, Fotis, was such a delight and shared so much knowledge. We’ve gone on food tours before but this very much had the most food overall, so come hungry and don’t plan dinner that night!
Our tour with Ami was one of the highlights of our time in Athens! The food was authentic and delicious, and Ami was an absolute perfect guide!! She is informative about the food, the locally owned restaurants, and the area of Plaka. I highly recommend this tour and I highly recommend asking for Ami as your guide...... you won't regret it!!!
Our guide was great, and plenty of food is included on the tour. Good to do on your first day in Athens - highly recommend
Excellent food tour with a friendly and knowledgeable guide. All the stops were interesting and there was lots of great Greek food. Highly recommended!
This was a really enjoyable food tour with Yoda, we went to so many restaurants, pubs, food patios. Everything was great!
Jenni was a very knowledgeable guide and a great ambassador for Athens. The food was plentiful, so go hungry. Jenni gave recommendations for other Greek specific foods to try while in Greece, which was great! Try to do this tour early in your trip so you can go back to the places you like.
Our tour guide was AMAZING! Giota was exceptional, she explained everything from the food to the culture to the history of Greece.
**The Perfect Introduction to Greece!** This was the perfect way to get a taste of Greece! Since it was our first night in Athens, this food tour was an excellent introduction to the city's culture, history, and incredible cuisine. Our guide, Giota (I hope I'm spelling her name correctly!), was phenomenal. She was friendly, engaging, and incredibly entertaining, sharing fascinating facts and local history throughout our walking tour. Her passion for Athens made the experience even more enjoyable. Every food stop was delicious, authentic, and very filling. We left with full stomachs and a much greater appreciation for Greek food and culture. If you're looking for a fun, informative, and delicious way to spend your first evening in Athens, I highly recommend this tour!
Fotis was our tour guide. He was amazing and explained what you were eating and how it's made at each stop. There were great visuals and explanations of the importance to their culture along with the culinary history.
Food was amazing and guide was awesome! You get to eat the food the locals eats and see where the locals shop.
