The food tour with Panos is certainly a top highlight of my time in Greece! He is a hospitable and personable guide who is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about gastronomy. He has a wealth of knowledge on Thessaloniki and the history of the city and how it mingled from a mix of cultures. He shared information in a way that was interesting and inspirational. He knows the food scene so well in the city and how different chefs interpret food. It was so pleasant to see him run into people that he knows on the street and to see the local business owners’ faces light up when they saw him. It certainly reveals his personable and authentic character. The food selections were delicious and outstanding with only the highest quality of ingredients. If you want to discover delicious food, see the hidden gems of Thessaloniki, and enjoy the company of a terrific guide, this is a perfect tour for you!

One of the best tours I have ever taken! Panos brings a wealth of knowledge of both the history and food of Thessaloniki – and you can tell his passion for sharing it with all the guests on his tour. Wonderful Greek hospitality and a great way to kick off my travels here!

Our guide Kostas was amazing! Very friendly, talkative and educated, answered all of our questions! We loved the stop at the coffee shop and the whole tour in general! Beautiful experience

The tour was very nice. Elena explained the history of each place very well and with a lot of patience. Definitely recommendable. Another way to see the city.

A great tour with a great guide. Very knowledgeable and very personable. Highly recommended!
