Maria was more than excellent and a wonderful person! Took us to 4 places. First was wine tasting with cheeses, grapes, olives and bread. Then to sweet treat, small fried dough balls with different toppings. Then gyros (chicken or beef) with beer. Then a roof top bar with a beautiful view of the Acropolis. Maria walked us around all of Plaka, explained and made sure we understood how to get to all major attractions front our hotel. I highly recommend this tour, especially on your first night! You will have all the information you need to plan the rest of your stay in Athens.

Last night's culinary and spirits tour guided by Maria was a delightful experience. She was not only incredibly knowledgeable about local flavors and drinks, but also exceptionally warm and personable, making everyone feel welcome. Her enthusiasm added a personal touch to our adventure, making the evening both educational and thoroughly enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to delve into the area's culinary delights and local alcoholic drinks with a genuinely charming and friendly guide.

Ended up being just us and the guide. Very easy guy to talk with. He was lots of fun and took us to some fantastic spots as well as giving us recommendations for places to visit during the rest of our trip.
