Best company I’ve worked with! I let them know I couldn’t make my tour due to my flight delay and they were able to accommodate me on another tour since the one I originally booked was sold out the next day. Tour itself was very well done. Sampled a large variety of tasty treats and our tour guide Demitri was very nice as well.

Great experience! Our tour guide was sweet, she made sure we understood the reasons why we ate at certain places, the history, and where to go if we wanted to explore more. It was a small group of 5, we walked to different areas and sampled foods. It was great for me because i did not do any research on what to eat. This helped give us a flavor on local foods. I went on a tour in Rome, and the Athens tour was better because we sampled alot of foods. It was a great deal and experience.

Anna was a brilliant guide and was very experienced and knowledgable which kept our family with two teens enthralled. She is a credit to your company. This food tour was a highlight of our Athens visit and an unforgettable experience. Thoroughly recommend. Great characters along the way including Stella in the souvlaki shop!

The tour was very good. We were taken to areas of Athens we hadn't visited, which were lively and full of locals. Food was plentiful and varied (although most of it was carb loaded!). Fotis, our guide, was friendly, professional and informative. We enjoyed his guidance and detailed explanations of the ingredients, preparation and cooking processes as well as the occasions when the different foods are eaten.
