This was an absolutely great tour! A large variety of delicious foods but our tour guide Anabelia was amazing. Every shop and restaurant we stopped at treated us like family. The history of the different shops and foods in Athens that we were able to sample tied everything together to create one of the best experiences you can ask for. I highly recommend a walking food tour to everyone visiting Athens.

How organized it was, there was never a question of what time we would be leaving from where. We also had plenty of time at the Temple before and after, which was great because with how cold it was I appreciated the chance to get a warm drink. The tour guide, Stavroula, was very knowledgeable and brought a lot of the sights to life with her commentary.

Had a good time with Vivian as our guide. She explained the history in a simple way and also recommended us where to go / restaurant to try in Athens. Overall very good experience.

Excellent tour, very informative, our guide was happy to answer any questions. Highly recommend this tour to complete your knowledge of the history of Athens.

Adele our guide was great. The food was great Tried many things I would of not tried without this tour.
