This was a fantastic food tour. We learned so much from our knowledgable guide John regarding Athen’s history, culture, different eras and how these impacted the wonderful authentic food we enjoyed. It was a fun filled stroll and one of our favorite tours among many great tours we enjoyed on a 2 week European vacation. Request John! He is the perfect blend of deep knowledge, and his presentation of facts is interesting and memorable, yet not overwhelming. We enjoyed being guided through the streets of central Athens, the food markets and Plako area with a relaxed authentic Athenian who spoke perfect English. John easily picked up on our unstated interests and tailored the tour to fit both our interests and appetites! The food was superb and the guide was even better!

Wonderful Greece cuisine private tour

John_T, Oct 2025

Our guide, John, was excellent. He took us around the northern and Western sides of the acropolis. We stopped at several spots that he knows to eat local food. We also went to several churches and he told us about the history of Greece and it's churches. It was a wonderful experience.

Bianca was an amazing tour guide!

Lisa_V, Jul 2025

This was, by far, our favorite tour while in Greece. Bianca was our guide. Not only did she take us to places to try authentic and delicious Greek foods and teach us about the Greek history of Athens, but had us laughing the entire team. If you take this tour, ask for Bianca!

Book this food walking cultural tour! Ask for John!

Amazing & Delicious Food Tour

Ali_P, Apr 2024

Bianca and John were lovely and very knowledgeable about Athens culture and history! We had a really great time exploring the city with them- we learned a lot and ate even more delicious food! Would highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see more of Athens.

So much delicious food!

Antonia was a wonderful tour guide who showed us neighborhoods and cafes we would have missed on our own. She not only led us on a Greek feast through the streets of Athens, but she also gave us historical and cultural highlights that added to our experience. Do not eat anything before this tour! There is so much food. From the fried cheese in phyllo to the Greek doughnuts drizzled with honey and the savory gyros, you will be glad you have to walk between stops. We ended our evening with a large assortment of traditional dishes at a cafe in the historic Plaka district. What a delicious way to experience Athens!
