What are people saying about Athens

Michelle_W, Aug 2026

This was such a fun way...

This was such a fun way to explore Athens! I’d highly recommend it to anybody. Our guide, Dimitris, was knowledgeable and engaging, keeping the flow of information interesting and relevant to his tour throughout. The only thing I would have done differently would be to plan this for the beginning rather than the end of our trip as he provided so many invaluable tips that we would have welcomed earlier in our holiday.

Athens Evening Food Tour

Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings

Claire_D, Aug 2026

Truly a MUST DO in Athens

This is a must do if you love food, and are going to be in Athens. Arela was the best guide we could’ve asked for - sharing the culture, history, and importance of these Greek dishes/foods. She was so genuinely sweet to all of us. The tastings were plentiful, fresh, and included a variety of different things. Sure, you can eat Gyros and Souvlaki anytime you are in Greece, but this tour is so much more than that. The value is amazing, everything is close by, and Arela made us feel like family during the entire tour. We would recommend this to anyone who appreciates food, and has a few hours in Athens. Come hungry because we are now headed to our hotel to nap! What a great experience!

So much good food!

We had a great experience with Andreas as our tour guide. The variety and quantity of food was amazing. As always, I learned a lot about the history of the city and got to try some new foods I wouldn’t have otherwise tried. We were able to walk through so many cool areas of several different neighborhoods in Athens. I would highly recommend this tour. It was awesome!

Outstanding Acropolis Tour with Hermes

Hermes made this one of the best guided tours I’ve ever taken. He has an incredible ability to bring the history of the Acropolis to life with fascinating stories, while keeping the tour engaging and easy to follow. His sense of humor made the experience even more enjoyable—we were laughing throughout, but also learned so much. You can tell he’s deeply knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about Greek history. He answered every question with enthusiasm and made even complex topics accessible. The pacing was perfect, and I left with a much deeper appreciation of the Acropolis than I would have had exploring it on my own. If you’re visiting Athens, I highly recommend choosing a tour with Hermes. He’s funny, charismatic, and an exceptional guide who turns a great site into an unforgettable experience.

Thank you so much for our tour, it was wonderful! The Parthenon is such a historic place and the information and spots our tour guide told and showed us was a perfect complement for it. You can tell he genuinely cared about the history he was speaking about and wanted us all to be involved in our experience. Whenever we come back in the future we will definitely go back for another tour with this company, they care greatly for their guests and want them to have an incredible experience!

An Exceptional Guide to Delphi!

Our tour to the Temple of Apollo in Delphi was absolutely incredible, all thanks to our fantastic guide, Xenia. She was exceptionally knowledgeable, weaving history and Greek mythology together in a way that truly made the ancient ruins come alive. Beyond her impressive depth of expertise, Xenia was incredibly helpful, attentive, and welcoming throughout the entire day, ensuring everyone had a seamless and memorable experience. If you are planning a trip to Delphi, we highly recommend booking with Xenia—she is an absolute gem and made our visit unforgettable!

Acropolis of Athens and Acropolis Museum Tour

Courtney_C, Jun 2026

Acropolis is great, museum is even better!

Magda was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. She was knowledgeable about every question our group asked. Her English was excellent, and she even made sure we always had comfortable, shady areas to gather to and from the top of the Acropolis. Having the museum included was definitely a great decision! Totally worth every penny.
