Disappointing experience

The tastings were mostly at retail shops that had these products available to buy. It seemed more like a hard sell to buy their products than the tastings as suggested by the pic. It was done standing up in the shops with a fancy presentation by the bee people selling an expensive range of cosmetics as well as honey and other food products. It felt like we were expected to buy from each retailer. We walked round the streets with the tour guide who shared a lot of history of Athens. We were given juice to walk with then stopped at the retail stores. We sat down at a restaurant and had kebabs like we get at home in Australia. Then we walked to a cafe that only provided iced coffees ( not hot ) and Greek donuts. It was highly recommended by friends because they went to a fun quirky cafe and had a ball and their male guide was fun. Our guide was dressed very casually and seemed unprofessional. A disappointing tour, a bit over 2 hours and not worth the $147 AUD we paid, plus the extra purchases of some products.
Wonderful evening in Athens

This was an excellent tour. Nasir was knowledgeable, fascinating and was easy to follow. We ate so much food that we didn’t need dinner, and it was all delicious. He toured us through markets and restaurants, each place getting a snack or a meal. And we thought the snacks were the meal until we ended at a restaurant with many plates to share.. and alcoholic drinks. He was very people friendly. Highly recommend.
Excellent guide and food
