This is a great way to start a visit to Athens. Our Guide Elias was great - very knowledgeable and funny, too. We walked thought the city, some parks, the Plaka and he pointed out many highlights. We felt more comfortable the next few days because of what he showed us. Ended up at a family-run tavern with delicious, authentic Greek food. Conversation was delightful - felt we were all friends by the end of the tour.

We happened to be the only two in the tour and boy did we get a deluxe outing with our guide, Kostas. He was firery and energetic as he entertained us with Athens' food and culture. At the end of the night, my husband and I were thoroughly educated and entranced with this beautiful city, the neighborhoods, the restaurants, and the shopowners. We saw, we ate, we laughed, and we promised to come back and visit more of Greece.

What an amazing tour! It ended up being a private tour for the 2 of us. Maria took us on a walking tour for 2 hours which was amazing and we ended with a beautiful meal in a local place. She provided so much information and suggestions for our stay. Thank you for an amazing experience!
Highly recommended to get to know the city and food in Athens.

We have planned this tour for our start in Athens, on the evening of our arrival day. It was the perfect entry for our city break, great overview of the sights and neighborhoods of Athens. Cosy tour, almost like among friends, we were 2 couples with Kostas, our guide. Kostas had a lot of interesting information and tips for us and over dinner together in a cozy tavern, he ordered the best food for us. We were able to taste many typical dishes and one was tastier than the other. This tour was a pleasure, totally relaxed, interesting, varied and culinary delight.
Great walk tour in early evening

Katrina was very knowledgeable and passionate about Athens. We saw things we would not have found on our own and tasted food we would not have thought of having. All very good.
