Customer Reviews
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Eleni on our food tour in Athens! From the very start, she was warm, knowledgeable, and passionate about Greek cuisine and culture. We loved tasting authentic Greek sweets and traditional coffee in charming local spots that we would have never found on our own. The highlight of the evening was the incredible seafood dinner at a truly local, non-touristy restaurant — fresh, flavorful, and unforgettable! Eleni made the whole experience feel like exploring the city with a local friend. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience the real flavors of Athens beyond the tourist areas!
We had an amazing time with Athens FoodSteps and Eleni Loulaki! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, authentic, and full of flavor. Eleni made us feel so welcome they shared not only delicious Greek food but also stories, history, and laughter. Eleni’s knowledge and passion for Greek culture are impressive. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure everyone enjoys themselves and connects with the local spirit of Athens. We also appreciated the little personal touches and gifts that made the experience even more special. If you’re visiting Athens, don’t miss this experience! It’s the best way to discover real Greek hospitality, taste amazing dishes, and learn the stories behind them. Highly recommended! 💙🇬🇷
Athens FoodSteps with Eleni with not just a food tour but a culinary and cultural experience that went above and beyond my expectations. It was a walk through history with her stories exploring the city in route from one tasting to another. The food tastings were plentiful and away from the typical tourist places. If there is only one tour you can do … this is the one you will not be disappointed! It was an exceptional tour.
