Rachel went above and beyond with me. Great tour. Great host. Lots of food. I am a host myself and this was great 😃 absolutely recommended!
Catherine was super knowledgeable and pleasant to talk with, the tour was interesting and the food was great. Good introduction to Greek specialities and food in general ☺️ Fair price.
Very good tour. I don't know if this is the same place but I booked a food tour through trip advisor with "Athens walks". Full AF though. All food was great but I especially liked the Turkish coffee. And doing it with strangers wasn't that bad either everyone was friendly and cool. Seriously don't eat all day before this because you will be beyond full with the amount of food you get.
Not sure what my expectations going in were, but the tour far exceeded them. They are not kidding when they say it's a LOT of food. Very informative and friendly, and delicious!
Excellent food tour! Dorella was wonderful. We had incredible food and learned a lot about the Greek culture. We tried so many amazing foods and left VERY full. And with so many wonderful recommendations for where to go after.
