5.00My husband and I found Greek Food tour the highlight of our trip to Athens. We had the opportunity to visit the market, several eateries, and walk through neighborhoods we other wise would not have seen. Our guide was entertaining in the best kind of way! We learned about food, customs, and Greek hospitality. I recommend this to all foodies!

5.00When they give you an advance warning to not eat 3 hours before the tour…don’t eat!!! There were 8 in our tour and there was always leftovers at each stop. The food was amazing but there was so much, and delicious. Anna, our guide was great describing the city, the vibe, the neighborhoods and the food we were eating.
Outstanding

5.00This food tour is a MUST DO! Incredible way to learn more about Athens, taking you off the beaten path to places a tourist wouldn't know are total gems. Our host was remarkable - her knowledge, friendliness, helpfulness - all 5 stars. Particularly after a tour to the Acropolis, doing a more intimate food tour like this is the perfect complement.
