I did many foodtours in different cities, but this tour was by far the best. Unfortenatly I can't give a six star rating which they deserve.

We had an amazing time on our food tour. We saw so many parts of Athens we wouldn’t have found on our own, while tasting so many great foods along the way!

Our tour guide was “Mike,” in Greek either Mihalis or Mikail. He was engaging and, important when it comes to food tasting, tolerant and non-judgmental about food tastes. He seemed to know the everyone in town. He offered a great glimpse into local life. Our itinerary of tastings included coffee with spanakopita, olive oil and olives, honey from a local producer, cured meats and more. It was fun and a lot of food. 5 stars.

We experienced foods and culture we never would have known existed without this tour. Our guide took us through the streets of Athens, chatting with locals along the way and having us try foods from markets, restaurants, and little shops. Overall an incredible experience!

This tour is definitely a must-do when you’re in Athens! It’s the best way to dive into authentic local food, exploring small specialized shops, markets, and food stands. Unlike the more touristy, commercialized restaurants, you’ll eat just like the locals do and try a variety of delicious, unique foods. Rachel was incredibly friendly, an amazing storyteller, and her passion really shines through. You can see the relationships she’s built with all the vendors and market sellers in every corner of the market. You won’t regret it!

This tour was amazing. The guide, Mike, was very knowledgeable and super passionate about food and the culture of his beloved City! Would definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone. P.S. there is a lot of food so don't eat before you go!

We had such a great time on this tour! I highly recommend to anyone visiting Athens- it was a fun way to see the city, try sooo many different foods (everything from spanikopita to honey to kabobs to Greek coffee), and meet people. Our guide Arela was so friendly and knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the history of Athens and the markets during our visit. Exceptional value too- you will eat a ton of food!

We so loved our three-hour food tour with Mike, who took us in and out of shops and markets where Athenians shop. We got to taste so many delicious things and learned so much much about Greek food. Totally recommend this!

Michael was a great tour guide and very informative. My kiddos loved the fish/meat market and the honey tasting! Fun for the whole family!
