Three of us had a private tour with Anna. She was wonderful, knowledgeable, friendly and responsive to our needs and preferences. There is a great deal of food on this tour. Not only don't eat beforehand, don't eat the day before, either. If you have food preferences, not just allergies, let your guide know. They can tailor your food tour. We could not have asked for a better time. Enjoy!
Must do

Fantastic experience with our guide Dora! Great selection of food experiences and Greek food knowledge with a smile. I would recommend you going on this food walking tour at the beginning of your Greek trip. And also remember not to eat before because the food is plentiful within your walking tour.
You won’t regret it!!

If you’re lucky enough to land a food tour with Tonia, consider yourself spoiled. She somehow manages to be a historian, comedian, and foodie all rolled into one, and does it with effortless charm. The tour itself was a delicious journey through Athens—each stop offering a new surprise, from savory bites that locals swear by to sweet indulgences you didn’t know you needed in your life. The small group size made everything feel personal, like being out with friends rather than on a tour. Tonia’s energy is infectious—attentive without hovering, funny without trying too hard, and crystal-clear in her explanations. Finding the meeting spot was a breeze, but the real challenge is walking away without unbuttoning your pants. A must-do experience for anyone who thinks eating is just as important as sightseeing (and maybe even more so).
