Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Iannis took us on an incredible tour of Athens food and culture along the way. We learned about the markets, honey, traditional recipes, neighborhood life, and authentic Greek culture. At the end of the evening, we were stuffed with delicious Greek foods and fun facts, and we got to see some areas in Athens that we weren't able to squeeze into our very tight two days. Iannis is definitely funny, very kind, and I highly recommend seeing some of the best of Athens with him! "
"Dimitris tailored the tour to our needs and preferences. He was great company and introduced us to some delicious Greek food. We would not hesitate to recommend him. "
"Nikola is fantastic! Knows the history of the area very well, including the history of the traditional food. He is engaging and friendly, and answers all questions very well. "
"We absolutely loved our food tour with Tatialena! She adjusted the tour to meet our family’s dietary needs, took us to places we never would have discovered on our own, and went above and beyond our expectations. Highly recommend!"
"Nasir was fantastic! We had great conversation throughout the tour, and we definitely did not leave the experience hungry. One thing to keep in mind if you're visiting in August is that much of Europe essentially takes the month off for vacation, so quite a few places are closed. Nasir had warned us about this beforehand and explained that because some of his usual favorites were closed, he would be taking us to his “number two” choices instead. If those were his second choices, we certainly weren't disappointed. Everything was delicious, and Nasir told us that all of the places we visited were spots he would happily go to with his wife, which made the experience feel much more personal and local rather than just a collection of tourist stops. Along the way, he also pointed out a couple of true locals-only type places that weren't open during our visit but that we'd love to try on a future trip to Athens. Great food, plenty of it, and excellent conversation with a guide who clearly enjoys sharing his city."
"Georgia was great and dealt with our teenagers very well. Was disappointed that the market was closed on the day we booked. Don’t see why that tour was available on the day the market was closed but Georgia made the best of it"
"We enjoyed our tour and will certainly book again! "
"This was the best decision we made while in Athens. Manos met us at a convenient location and brought us to his favorite food destinations. We experienced AMAZING food, got to know proprietors of local businesses, wandered neighborhoods and received a great education on Greek culture and history!"
"Fantastic way to see parts of the city off the beaten track. Good variety of tasting, and great hosting. Loved our time with Niko. Would 100% recommend. "
"We couldn’t have chosen a better guide for our food tour of Athens! Ioannis was delightful and made our food tour memorable. From his knowledge of Greek history, culture, and of course, food we were extremely pleased. 100% would book with him again. "
