The tour guide was very nice and we had a great time. All of the food was very good and there was plenty of it. The quantity and quality of the food was perfect. We would definitely recommend this tour.
Our guide, Emi, was great. Super knowledgeable about the history of each food we tried and open to giving recommendations for where to go next.
Great guide with a lot of inside information who communicated it all very interestingly. We ate five dishes and were definitely full! I still think 50€ would cover it easily, but I would always recommend Yiota, our guide! Thanks so much for the tour!
Enjoy the food 😍 And our tour was amazing. Highly recommend.
Great experience with Jiota! The food was delicious, and the commentary while walking through the town. Learned a lot about Greek history and how and why they eat the food! It was phenomenal completely recommend.
This tour was well worth the price! Our guide took us to 5 delicious stops and we were very full, so come hungry!! It was also interesting to hear stories of the area and Greek history.
Great food, great tour guide.
It was very delicious and fun. We took our kids as well and they had an awesome time and the guide was so nice
My daughter and I did this tour on our first night in Athens and this worked out great. We were able to get a nice introduction to the different neighborhoods of Athens and great places to eat. This set us up for success in the days to come as we explored Athens. At the end of the tour, our guide even helped direct everyone on the best way to return to the hotel or recommendations if tour guests wanted to grab a drink somewhere. Highly recommend!
The locations might change day to day with the tour since they use local people and smaller stores but I think that's pretty cool!
