"Voula was absolutely wonderful! She took us to some great locations including the market and a honey shop! We sampled lots of local bites while also learning some very interesting history. She was kind and extremely knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions and provided us a very personalized introduction to all that Athens has to offer. These tours are a great way to get a lay of the land and to truly understand all the great insights only a local can provide. We had an absolutely lovely experience and were so impressed with Voula’s energy and passion for her trade and her beautiful city! Would highly recommend spending some time with her to really appreciate all that Athens has to offer! Don’t miss the honey! It was a highlight of our tour!! Absolutely delightful experience!! "
"We love exploring cities via their restaurants and cafes. Voula planned an interesting and varied tour for us in central Athens. We walked about three miles and visited a variety of places to eat. We also enjoyed speaking with her and learning more about Athens and Greece.
Voula is knowledgable, friendly and fun to be with."

Loved our tour with Irini!
"What a fun few hours we had as Irini took us around Athens and showed us some hidden gems. We did a great cheese and meat tasting, visited a spice shop and the central market, went to a hole in the wall we'd never have noticed for dinner and finished up with some loukamades. Irini was indefatigable and we had a great time chatting with her. She is so friendly and it was clear she had really great relationships with the people we encountered on the tour. She's a true gem!"
"We were a family of 5 - two of whom don't speak English... And yet - we all had a great time! Viki was very attentive and flexible, especially considering we had a vegetarian child with us. Vicky’s vibrant and lively personality added so much to the experience, and we really enjoyed every moment with her. Highly recommended!
"
"Our group had a great and delicious time with Marina. She was such a warm and engaging host and gave us a taste of Greek food we would never had tried on our own. She also took us around to see beautiful spots in central Athens, giving us some history lessons on these. We loved the places we walked along while moving on to the next food destination, getting a lot of ideas and recommendations for eating, dining, hanging out. Our eyes, mind, and definitely our mouths were well fed! Highly recommended activity and host to jumpstart your culinary adventures in Athens! Thank you, Marina!"

Enthusiastic, Knowledgable Evanthia!!!!
"I susprised my son for his ten-year old birthday with a last-minute weekend trip to Athens, and arranged for two tours with Evanthia -- the 3-hour Mythology Tour and the Ten Tastes of Athens. Evanthia was kind, enthusiastic about all things Greek and Athenian, and so, so knowledgable. We both learned a lot and enjoyed our ten tastes of Athens. Thank you Evanthia!!! We are going to go back with our entire family, and hope that Evanthia will be available again for the four of us!!! "
"Voila was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable about the city of Athens and took us to some great places to get a taste of this amazing culture. Voila has outgoing personality and very personable. Would highly recommend."
"We had the absolute pleasure of experiencing a food tour in the Monastiraki Square area of Athens with Tatialena, and it exceeded all our expectations! From the moment we met her, her warmth and genuine passion for Athenian cuisine and history were evident.
What truly set Tatialena apart was her ability to create a personalized and engaging experience. She shared fascinating local and historical insights, bringing Monastiraki to life. Traveling with our four-month-old son presented some unique challenges, but Tatialena handled everything with incredible grace and understanding. She was incredibly patient, allowing us time for diaper changes and feedings without missing a beat. Her kindness and willingness to accommodate our needs made us feel completely at ease.
Beyond her knowledge and helpfulness, Tatialena is simply a delightful person. She's funny, engaging, and made the tour a truly fun and memorable experience. We sampled some incredible local foods, and her recommendations were spot-on.
If you're looking for a food tour in Athens that's authentic, insightful, and tailored to your needs, look no further than Tatialena. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone visiting Athens, especially those traveling with young children. Thank you, Tatialena, for an unforgettable experience!"
"We booked Vasiliki for a food tour and a wine tasting and we loved both experiences. Vasiliki was passionate about Athens and was keen to show us all aspects of the city from the old to new.
The food and the wine were excellent and she couldn't do enough for us.
We'd recommend both tours and Vasiliki in particular.
Thanks again!"
"Georgia provided us with a great experience in Athens. She is very knowledgeable about the local cuisine and created a perfect itinerary for our needs. The pace of the tour was well set and the time passed much too quickly because we were so engaged in the process. She has a very positive demeanor and we enjoyed her company immensely.
Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience.
