"We enjoyed our tour with Dimitris so much. First of all you will eat and eat and eat and always be happy with what you’re eating. We really appreciated the family run and independent and specialty places he took us for traditional and delicious Greek food. We also enjoyed his company. He was happy to answer questions about the culture and society. "

Why Not the Best?
"Three years ago, I toured with Georgia. This week, the FIRST activity we undertook upon arriving in Athens was to spend 4 hours with Georgia. She is the best.
A knowledgeable raconteur who knows the food scene, Georgia is a joy, We talk about food, ingredients, culture, history and politics all intersperses with tasty food.
No better way to experience the flavors of Athens."

Amazing Day
"We had an a amazing day with Irini. First off she customized her normal route to accommodate our hotel location and I’m so glad we did. we explored a local neighborhood which she new very well - Koukaki. it was so fun and she is very knowledgeable about the history of Athens and the neighborhood. The food was delicious and plentiful trying all of the Greek traditional foods. I would highly recommend Irini if you are looking for a great food tour and some local knowledge. "

Ioannis is the Best!
"Ioannis was so flexible and understanding with us. We had just arrived in Greece and were pretty jet-lagged. Ioannis quickly tailored our tour to fit the needs of our group. He took us through the local market, which is an experience I’ll never forget. Then he took us to a local restaurant and treated us to several Greek dishes, which were all delicious. We visited a shop that sold honey, and the sales ladies there were delightful. Finally, we visited a very nice bar so the men our group could have a little American whiskey. 🥃 this was a great introduction to Greece. Thank you, Ioannis!"

Wonderful Food Tour
"We just had a delightful food tour with Voula. She has the inside track on all the best spots to eat Greek specialties. Voula is a knowledgeable and friendly guide who was able to answer all our questions about Greek foods, life in Greece, Greek history and so much more. We had a wonderful time with her and then she send us off, armed with so much information (and a bag of leftovers) to see more of Athens.
Thank you Voula, you’re the best! "
"Voula was a very friendly and interesting companion on our delicious food walk.
She spoke very good English."

Makram made Athens AMAZING!
"Makram provided an absolutely amazing tour. I had one full day in Athens before the rest of my group joined so it was just me for the tour. Makram showed me several spots where I got to eat delicious, local food. It was so amazing to go into a restaurant on the other side of the globe, and have someone with you who knows all of the employees & all the best food to get. He adjusted the tour to me- I loved the rooftop bar with a beautiful view of the Acropolis, plus he sprinkled in conversation with lots of local customs and history while we were together. When the tour concluded, he made sure to show me several areas to explore on my own, and made me feel very comfortable to stroll around and explore on my own. My time in Athens would not have been so good without Makram and his friendly & welcoming vibe. Come hungry & be prepared to “Eat like a Greek” when you go. Lots of food and the challenge is to not leave anything on the table!"
