Dhora was the best tour guide ever. She was very knowledgeable about the food and Athens. She gave tips on where to eat and things to do during our stay in Athens. I would come back to Athens and do another tour with her again!

We did the private tour and it was fantastic so much food that we ended up having to take a bunch of it home with usas well. This isn’t one of those small sample tours. This is a lot of great food and great information. Our guide Adele was fabulous, if you get her you will be getting the best.
