The food and restaurants were very good. The only negative is that there was a lot of walking between a couple of the stops. If walking is an issue you this might a difficult tour

We went to several typical eateries. All the food we ate was delightful. The guide was very knowledgeable and related some food items to Greek history. She also explained how some of the food is made and eaten in typical Greek families. Overall we enjoyed the tour very much. However, often it was hard to hear the guide, because of the noise on the street and in the restaurants. Consider some microphone arrangement.
Great Experience

It was wonderful. Emi our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the food and the history of Greece. Taking time to explain each dish and it’s origins.
