Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had an amazing time. He was so knowledgeable, fun, engaging, had all kinds of pearls about the Greek culture and people. We learned so much. The tastings were lovely, and really gave us an idea of what typical Greeks eat, not just what is in restaurants. He taught us about Greek history, politics, modern day everyday life, and food. It was a wonderful introduction to Greece."
"We matched up with Ms. Vasiliki for our walking tour. She was an awesome guide who was very attentive to our interest. She also went out of her way to offer suggestions beyond the tour. For the tour she took us to great places to include the local market and several shops and restaurants. She is very well liked and welcomed by the people we visited so her reputation is well deserved. We'd recommend Vasiliki to be your guide anytime. Thanks Vasiliki!!"
"Georgia was wonderful! We loved learning about local Athens experiences and the food was phenomenal. Highly recommend!"
"My son and I had a fabulous time on a food tour with Ariadni. We had 3 hours experiencing parts of Athens we wouldn’t have found by ourselves. Her local knowledge made the event personable and intimate which gave the tour a relaxed vibe. We ate a lot of local food and finished the tour very satisfied."
"Eleni guided us to some wonderful spots we’d never have found on our own."
"Tatialena is Very accommodating, friendly, knowledgeable, story teller, and she definitely went out of her way to make our experience exceptional. The food was outstanding. Wonderful memories were made! "
"We had a fantastic morning with charming Niko. So many delicious tastes from the best bougatsa, luscious dried figs and pistachios to olives and a family run distillery with the most incredible coffee and fruit liqueurs. Niko is enthusiastic , funny and very knowledgeable . The shopkeepers all loved him and welcomed us warmly. This tour really showed how the evolution of culture, history and food is intertwined. "
"Yorgos was fantastic. He altered things to meet the change in the day due to Labor Day protests and closings. He provided us with amazing food tastings- we have a new appreciation of Fava! From tapas to dessert and an amazing gyro in the middle we couldn’t have asked for better. Yorgos knowledge about history and architecture was an added bonus. Easy conversationalist and overall joy to tour with. Two thumbs up!! "
"We landed in Athens at 8am, checked into our accomodation and headed straight out to meet Dionysis. Overall, the tour was informative, fun, and of course the food was delicious! Dionysis chose perfect spots for each type of food. We had mezze at a small traditional cafe, gyros at a beautiful restaurant, and amazing spanakopita and desserts. We loved all of the places as the food was perfect and they didn’t feel too touristy. The amount of food was great - we couldn’t have eaten another bite! Dionysis also helped us get a feeling for the layout and history of the city which was great for our first day in Athens. He even sent through more recommendations for places to try near our accomodation. Thank you Dionysis!"
"Ioannis is a fantastic guide. He knows the town, story and where to go. We had such a memorable night. I highly recommend him!"
