Maria was great, she explained the food well including the history. As we were walking she gave us the background of the area.
Athens is a city full of life.

Amazing experience! Definitely come hungry and ready to eat, drink, and learn all about the different districts in Athens. The food was incredible and it was great to find the spots the locals like to go rather than areas with long lines of tourists who saw a place from an influencer.
A wonderful afternoon
