Great food tour. Plenty of authentic Greek food. You won’t be going to touristy locations. Spanakopita, yogurt, cheeses, a ‘meatball’ gyro, coffee, etc. We can barely move. Filippos was very knowledgeable and fun. Thanks, Filippos.
I came on the recommendation of a friend, with the desire to discover Greek specialties from local producers and especially to taste what the locals really like… and I was not disappointed! Lef, our guide, was great! His tour is perfectly mastered, very fluid, lively, and authentic. You let yourself be carried along to the rhythm of the different places and tastings. It is a truly beautiful moment of sharing. I was a little afraid of not liking certain things or having too much to eat first thing in the morning, but everything was perfectly balanced. We even went back in the afternoon to some of them because we had loved it so much.
This is the best way to experience authentic Greek food! We tasted spanakopita, Greek donuts, and coffee among other things. We also got to walk through the meat and fish market and the flea market. Ask for Penny. She’s the best tour guide!! 10/10 would highly recommend if you’re ever in Athens.
We did not only get to know Greek food better but also talked about culture and other things.
We had an amazing food tour and completely lucked out with a private tour also! My mom and I were the only tour guests that day and we had Lef all to ourselves. Fantastic tour with a great variety of tastes representing the essence of Athens. Lef shared food insights while we also learned history and his story. It is clear the tour guides at this company have a great reputation, as we ran into other tour groups along the way and they all said Lef was the best! Highly recommend for a delightful morning or evening 💕

Lef was an amazing tour guide. He was friendly and offered good recommendations and history throughout the whole trip.
A wonderful discovery of every taste of Greece ! Thanks to Lef, our highly skilled and nice guide for this job. We enjoyed every moment.
The tour was led by a bilingual guide. The grilled octopus drizzled with lemon and olive oil, the pork marinated in a blend of oregano and garlic, are some classics food dishes we enjoyed. It was like a flavorful overview of this cuisine of this region.
