Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"This tour was not only filled with great food options and generous portions but Nikolas made it entertaining and educational as well. We tried so many savory and sweet options from traditional breakfast items to savory favorites to street treats. Don't hesitate to book this tour with Nikolas. "
"Evanthia was wonderful! She did a great communicating with us before the tour and we were able to meet up with her easily. She told us all about the city of Athens and its history as we walked from one establishment to the next to try different foods. We couldn't have been happier with our tour."
"We had such a lovely time cooking with Melina. She was so kind and considerate to us as we had a snafu, and we were quite late to our appointment.\n\nShe was inspirational to my son and encouraged him to prepare and try many different dishes and flavors he wouldn\u2019t normally. \n\nWe highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience authentic Greek cuisine. "
"We really enjoyed our complete tour of the city with Eleni followed by a drinks and byte tour. We highly recommend her."

"Dimitris is a great person, like hanging out with an old freind. Tailored stops to our taste. Perfect amount of food for us, and snacks for later. Highly recommend!"
"We were very please with our walk with Georgia. It wasn\u2019t just food, it was also culture and a possibility to have answers about the daily life of the Greeks. The food we tasted was delicious and of a great variety. We can absolutely recommend you to make a tour with Georgia. "
"Yorgos made sure we experienced the \u2018real local\u2019 Greek food! Fantastic experience and he is a very personable guide, felt like we were catching with an old friend over great food and drink. He made sure we tasted a variety of foods and we are so glad we did this with him!!"
"My husband, 9 yr old daughter, and I had a fantastic time on a food tour with Dimitri! He accommodated our late evening request and took us on a fun, educational and most definitely delicious food journey to his favorite local spots. We felt the warm fuzzy welcome Greeks are famous for thanks to Dimitri's hospitality, his warmth, and his knowledge. Thank you Dimitri, for sharing your love of Greece and making our first glimpse of Athens unforgettable. \u2764\uFE0F+++"
"We had a wonderful tour with Irini. She took us to local restaurants of the tourist track, which really gave us a Taste of Athens. Irini did a great job explaining the type of foods we were sampling and provided the history behind many of the various Greek dishes. \n\nShe was so fun and made it such an enjoyable evening in Athens! \n\n"
"Our tour with Georgia was an outstanding experience. We had shared our dietary preferences in advance and the delicious food we had at every stop was perfect for us. Our favorites were the bougatsa, Melira honey, Fotis spices, the mezze and the loukomades. We learned so much about tge food and about the neighborhoods we visited. The personal attention was great!"
