We (2 couples) really enjoyed this daytime tour! Dimitri was a fun, friendly, knowledgeable guide, and he had made the advance bookings at some great casual dining spots! We had plenty to eat and drink along the way, including several sit down taverna-style places off the beaten path.

Found that our guide lacked enough English skills to accurately answer some of the questions we had. Found t
Hat good we had trialed in Athens was of significantly better quality than we sampled

Way over priced,
It cost my husband and l over $350 and we received very little food.
When it came to buying us dessert they got us 1 small scoop of ice cream in a cup couldn’t even get us a cone. very disappointed ☹️

Took the 6 tastings option - ended up at only 3 stops. Online description supposed to be a 3 hour tour - ended after 2hrs 15mins as guide kept saying it’s a 2 hour tour only. Guide was friendly and seemed genuine. Paid the highest food tour option so far and so overall felt disappointed did not get to taste more local food. Perhaps try the group option instead - cheaper, safer, and higher chance of more tasting options.

We had a very enjoyable tour. Our tour guide was excellent and his food choices were superb. He was very informative about the city of Athens, history of Greece and the local culture. I would highly recommend this tour.

We scheduled the food tour in hopes of visiting multiple places around the city to try authentic Greek foods. We were assigned to Dionysis, who is a local to Athens and was able to share a lot about Greek culture. He was very nice, but it was clear there was no organized agenda or agreements with restaurants. This would be nice for people who don’t mind going with the flow or having a formal agenda. While we only made two stops for food and a Greek coffee, the best part of the tour was a walk up the hill to get a view of the city. All-in-all, we could have gotten the food ourselves but the tour and historical knowledge was a nice perk.

A great low key way to explore a little bit of Athens. It was great to be able to have a conversation with a local, get her viewpoint, and ask any questions you may have.
The food was tasty and the portions light. A very nice basic overview.
Eleni was very personable and we enjoyed her insight and company. I would definitely recommend.

Absolutely amazing! If you love to experience culture through food you need to book this. Our guide was amazing, and even accommodated one member of our party being vegetarian and the others not. So much fun and so much food and wine!! Highly recommend.

It was certainly a bit challenging because it was Greek Orthodox Easter. The market halls, for example, were closed. There were lots of locals out and about eating Easter lamb. Our guide was very nice. The food tour, however, was a bit disappointing. First we went to a large bakery on the square, then to what felt like a touristy restaurant in the main pedestrian zone and finally to a mini bakery. The food was consistently good, but nothing special and no local places or tips. We booked the 10 dishes/tastes, but we didn't really get to see the extent of them. We have booked many food tours before, but this was the least original and most touristy in terms of locations. We wouldn't book it again.
