Best food tour around.

5.00A wonderful evening with Eva. We visited the most beautiful and interesting areas of the city, her stories painting a highly informative picture of the locale. Have your camera ready for the incredible buildings and views on the way. And then there was the food, from amazing honey to traditional Greek specialities, with the vendors providing their own stories to complement the tastings. The evening finished with a sumptuous Greek dinner and wine. Eva's charm, coupled with her knowledge of this city and the food, made for a great experience. Highly recommended.

Fun morning of food and tips!

5.00Eva was exceptional!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better host to tour the city with and eat a lot of unique and yummy food. She was energetic, hilarious, and fun. You can tell she loves meeting people and showing them the city. We are so glad to have tried many local treats and enjoy a Greek meal. We were a family of five with daughters aged 10, 14, & 18. They thoroughly enjoyed the tour too. We would highly recommend her.
Family, friends and fun

5.00We were so glad that we booked this tour! Eva is a fabulous guide - so warm and friendly that it's as if an old friend has moved to Athens and is showing you all the great places she's discovered. All the food we tried was delicious and it's worth doing the tour early in your holiday so you can go back to some of the lovely cafes and restaurants that she shows you. It was great that as well as taking us to eating places she also took us on a walking tour of some pretty areas off the main tourist routes. Well worth the money!
Knowledge plus enthusiasm plus great food=a brilliant tour

5.00We can’t say enough about our tour with Eva. Her love of her city, its people, and of course, its food—is genuine. While you’re walking to food venues, you will learn much about authentic Athens. The food selections are diverse— and excellent. You will not be disappointed!
Fantastic tour with exceptional guide, Eva.

5.00This morning’s food tour was an absolute highlight of our time in Athens. Our guide, Eva, was ready and waiting at the pick-up point, immediately making us feel welcome and excited to explore the sights, sounds and — most importantly — the tastes of this wonderful city. For over four hours we wandered through the streets, taking in incredible views while stopping at a carefully chosen selection of restaurants and cafés, each with its own unique history and story. It wasn’t just about sampling delicious food; it was about sharing in the passion and pride each establishment had for what they do. Eva was friendly, engaging and great fun throughout. Nothing was ever a problem, and the tour moved at a relaxed, enjoyable pace — which was perfect given the generous amount of tasting along the way! Thank you so much for such a fantastic experience. I truly couldn’t rate this tour and Eva highly enough.
Great vibes and amazing food!

5.00Absolutely amazing tour! Eva is so sweet, kind, and extremely knowledgeable! Not only is this is your where you can eat all kinds of yummy things, but Eva tells you the history of the city and the food as well! She also took us to some of her favorite spots in the city on the way to the different food locations. She kept the vibes high and the conversation flowing the entire tour. I highly recommend booking with her (:

5.00Eva’s deep knowledge of local cuisine and culture made every stop memorable. Not only did we taste a wide variety of authentic Greek dishes, but we also learned fascinating stories and history behind each location. The warmth and enthusiasm she brings to the tour truly set it apart from any other experience we’ve had. Bonus was the awesome pics she took of our family.
