Explore the food markets of Athens on a 4-hour walking tour and taste some of the delicious treats on offer.
Start with a traditional Greek breakfast of koulóuria (sesame bread rings), and then make your way to a century-old pastry shop to sample loukoumades (Greek donuts) and custard-filled filo squares.
Enjoy local pies and cheeses at authentic Greek bakeries.
Next, wander through the meat and fish market, the living monument markets of the city. Try dark roasted coffee to one of the older coffee roasters downtown. Enjoy some local wine, organic produce olive oil and honey, seven-year-old aromatized vinegar, and the world-famous Greek yogurt at a small shop that sells fantastic gifts for your friends back home.
Wander down Evripidou Street, scented by herbs. Visit a local tavern and explore mezedes plates (local tapas). Then end your culinary exploration by enjoying the famous Greek souvlaki with chicken or pork gyros (Vegetarians are welcome, gluten-free cannot be accommodated).

Eirene was by far the most fun and knowledgeable person. She was super friendly, patience and kind. She took us to many spots that me as a tourist would never find. Thank you so much beautiful! My first visit to Greece was a success :D

This was my favorite tour in Athens. Anna was the best! She was very courteous and friendly, and explained everything in so much detail. The food was excellent, well worth the money. Highly recommended.

This tour was one of the best things I have done on holiday - and I will do food tours again on my travels now, and hope that they are this good. First of all our guide Durella (apologies as I am sure I have spelled this incorrectly) was brilliant from start to finish, lots of explanation, great stories and even gave us an excellent recommendation for a restaurant later in the evening. There was lots of delicious food and drink, not a great deal of walking, but a superb way to try to immerse yourself in Greece and Athens in particular - so much better value than a guidebook. 100% recommend.

This was a really fun tour that took us to great places we would not have otherwise found. Our guide, Anna, was full of enthusiasm, informative and an absolute delight to be with. I would highly recommend this tour.

Great tour around Monastiraka area in Athens and super host. Sampled more food than we could eat; you definitely need to go hungry.

The tour was amazing. We did it our first night in Athens after flying overseas. We knew that we would be tired and figured this was a great way to handle dinner our first night in the country. It did not disappoint. We had a nice walking tour where our guide told us about the different parts of the city. We continually stopped for heavy snacks and learned about the food--olive oil, Slouvaki, local pizza, etc. We ended with a meal with a wide variety of Greek foods. Our guide shared the best sites for drinks while viewing the Acropolis, best ways to get around the city, and a list of local restaurants.

This was the first organized tour we had done on any of our travels and, by the end of tour, I could not recommend this experience enough. Anna was absolutely wonderful, explained everything thoroughly, and offered an experience well beyond that which can be achieved through wandering by oneself. The food was great and well-rounded (pastries, snacks, coffee, etc), but definitely go hungry because you’ll be eating a lot! You’ll cover a lot of ground on this tour and get plenty of tips for activities and restaurants beyond the tour, as well.

This was a very fun tour and we tried a number of tasty dishes. Our host was very knowledgeable and tried hard to make the tour fun. It was a good way to see and experience a number of neighborhoods and the night life.
