The perfect culinary tour - Maria was an outstanding food tour guide! I highly recommend this tour. You will get an authentic feel for the people, culture and markets. The tour starts with sweet pastries and ends with a sumptuous lunch. As we walked about, Maria taught us Greek culture and history. This was an excellent tour for the price. Us two adults and two children had a blast.

A must in Athens!!! - Lef was a wonderful tour guide for our young family (children 11, 7 & 4)! The whole tour was set out well, with Lef taking us to some wonderful places (both sights and places to eat). The food was amazing and we couldn’t fit another thing in by the end. Such an excellent tour! We would highly recommend this for anyone visiting Athens!!!

Thanks Filippos! - We had a fantastic experience with Filippos. We are 2 adults and kids aged 16/12/10. The tour was great for the kids and was a mix of food and history, visiting places we’d never have found on our own. There was so much food! The tour ends with a meal at a family run restaurant. We had to take the leftovers home! Thank you Filippos for being such a great and engaging tour guide.

Food, Fun, and Friendship - Our food tour in Athens was an absolute amazing with Ioanna! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease—she has such a kind, friendly, and funny personality that made the entire experience feel like we were exploring the city with an old friend. Ioanna’s knowledge of Greek cuisine, culture, and local history was truly impressive. What made the tour even more special was how comfortable and relaxed Jhoana made us feel throughout. She was attentive, engaging, and clearly passionate about what she does. We wholeheartedly recommend Jhoana to anyone visiting Athens. If you’re looking for a fun, flavorful, and insightful experience, she’s the perfect guide!

An Amazing Food Tour with Philipaous - We had an incredible experience on our food tour with Philipaous. He was especially wonderful with our kids (ages 15, 12, and 9), encouraging them to try and even rate foods we never imagined they would eat. The tour took us through a wide variety of neighborhoods in Athens that we never would have discovered on our own. Along the way, Philipaous shared fascinating historical insights about each area, which made the experience even more enriching. He was also incredibly accommodating with every allergy, including sesame and pistachio, which are very difficult allergies to travel Greece with. And the food… wow! We are absolutely stuffed. Every stop was generous, delicious, and thoughtfully chosen. Highly recommend this tour and especially Philipaous to anyone visiting Athens, especially families.

Joana was lovely and... - Joana was lovely and provided a unique insider’s experience for me and my 5 year old daughter. Joana was knowledgeable, kind and funny. We got to see parts of Athena we would simply never have found on our own. We tasted a delicious variety of foods. Joana was thoughtful about my daughter’s needs. We had a great time together. Highly recommend - ask for Joana!

A great way to see Athens with the kids! - What an awesome way to see Athens! We went on a family food tour with Kate and absolutely loved it! By the time we finished my daughter was holding Kate’s hand like they were old pals and no one could eat anything more - stuffed full of so much incredible food. We loved it-and all the cats!
