Fun and Delicious wine tasting with George - My husband and I had a great wine tasting experience with our guide George. We were the only 2 people that signed up for the tour that day, and we appreciated the tour proceeding with only the 2 of us. George took us to 3 different wine bars. Each distinct in atmosphere and history. The first was at an underground basement with a sommelier attending serving us 2 different rosé wines with a generous accompaniment of cheeses, olives, and spreads. The wines were delicious. The second wine tasting was at a modern very classy wine bar that served us 2 great white wines with a side of cheeses and olives. The 3rd wine bar was at a trendy modern wine bar that served us 2 reds with accompanying cheeses and crackers and other accompaniments. George throughout explained the area and history of each place and Athenian history. He has a fun sense of humor and is very knowledgeable about the area. He was kind and considerate. We truly enjoyed our tour with George. Thank you George!

Wine tour with Telis - Our tour was amazing because of our tour guide! It was the perfect way to see the city. Our guide (Telis) was very knowledgeable and made us feel very welcomed. I highly recommend doing the tour on your visit to Athens.

Short and sweet tour! Involves basics of wine knowledge without being too pretentious. - George was a super fun guide and my friends and I had an amazing time! The wine pours are definitely just samples (3-4 sips as opposed to 4-5 oz) and not full glasses of wine but I still feel like this tour was worth it.

Athens Wine Tour - Our guide, Elena, was a pure delight. My husband and I were lucky enough to have a private tour with her. She was articulate, informative and funny. In addition to tasting and learning about wine and the local Greek cheese, she shared information about Greek culture. The tastings were held at three different wine bars and the gentlemen who led the wine tastings were very informative. I highly recommend this tour.

10/10 recommend!! - We were so shocked when we got to the start, and it was just us two and our guide, Vagelis! They provided a bottle of water and ponchos for the tour. We had an amazing time wine tasting and getting to know Vagelis. Definitely recommend!!

Not worth the money. - We did not go to a winery. It was a walking tour of bars. Definitely not what we expected. I would not recommend this tour to anyone.
