Great afternoon spent with Kate (Katarina) exploring the food scene in Athens. Small group of 6 guests with interesting stops at local cheese shop, greek coffee experience, and sampling nuts, honey and mastiha. Walking was moderately paced and food was plenty so didn't need dinner that evening. Kate was very informative and delightful. Thanks for the great outing!
By far the best tour we...

By far the best tour we took in Athens! Our guide, Filip, was absolutely amazing and truly made the entire experience top tier. The food was unforgettable and gave us such a genuine taste of Greek culture. We didn’t just sample incredible dishes—we learned the stories, traditions, and history behind them, which made it all the more special. If you’re going to Athens, do not miss this tour, you won’t regret it!

Not too much walking. Elias was our guide and he was informative and fun. We were a nice small group of 6. Lots of food so don't eat before the tour and we didn't need dinner.
