5.00Amazing food tour. Maria made us feel like locals sharing so much information as we walk by, about the market, and shops around. Every spot where we ate was amazing, in fact we went back a few times to some of the spots we ate at during the tour. This is a highlight of our trip and Maria made us feel at home.
Suburb private food tour.

5.00We had a private food tour in Athens for us and another couple. Our guide was Maria and she was fabulous. She spoke English very well and was very accommodating as far as the pace of the tour. She provided many interesting insights into the city and the people who live there. The food was amazing with so many different dishes. We were sure we wouldn’t possibly be able to eat or try them all. But everything was so good we managed to put away a lot more than we thought we could. We highly recommend this tour.

5.00We loved this tour! The stops are all excellent and plenty of food is included. Tonia was very engaged with our group and was very fun to be around. It was rainy and crowded in all the venues but she found space for us and made sure we all got to try everything. We had the option to choose our last course which we appreciated since we were too full to get a gyro and opted for gelato. Tonia was amazing and made the tour very enjoyable.
