This is a really well-done tour that takes you through all of the Greek food groups: pastry, coffee, wine, cheese, and gyros. Agathy was a great guide, and the group was small and intimate.
It was a good time, wear...

It was a good time, wear comfortable walking shoes and save plenty of room for all the food. Be prepared with umbrella in case weather doesn't cooperate.
Delicious Greek treats!

Come hungry! This is a great way to try multiple Greek delicacies while walking and sightseeing in between tastings. It wasn't really specific to Christmas time other than some seasonal decorations and wonderful cookies.
Awesome

This was such a good nice. Terrific guide and delicious food (we have literally gone back and eaten again at three of the stops). The Christmas lights during the walk made it magical.
Absolutely fantastic!!

This tour was one of the best things we booked while in Athens. An amazing guide who was great company. Delicious food (we have gone back to three of the places to eat again) and the Christmas ambiance and lights while walking at night made it magical.
Delicious, delightful food tour of Athens!

Agatha was an excellent tour guide of the culinary highlights of Athens. The food was delicious at the six or seven bakeries, cafes and restaurants we visited. Some stops were short to buy delicious pastries and eat while we walked. Other stops were longer at restaurants and cafes, giving a comfort break. Conversation with Agatha was easygoing (our family was the only members of the tour). She was quite warm and very knowledgeable. Although only some of the food was "Christmas food," all of it was very tasty. We were stuffed by the end of the tour, and decided at the last restaurant to order takeaway gyros for eating later. I highly recommend this tour.
