Voula was a great guide! Not only she took me at really nice places, she was also very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the food and the history of the city. She is very friendly and helpful; she even helped me to plan me day trip to Delphi. Thumbs up for Voula

Highly recommended food tour in Athens !!!

Frieda_B, Jan 2025
Amazing food tour with our guide Voula who was delightful, super friendly and very knowledgeable about Greek culture and food . She took us to some places (local market, small shops and restaurants hidden in the city of Athens ) we wouldn't have thought of going ourselves -despite our extensive research. Best tour to become acclimated to what Greek food lifestyle is like. I didn't want the tour to end ,Voula you are AWESOME !!!

Thank you for the great review!!!!

Perfect taste of Athens

Demi_B, Jan 2025
Voula was a great!. She showed us around the city and we learnt a lot about the culture and cuisine. The food tastings were great, we tasted foods in lovely spots that we wouldn’t have if we were on our own. One gets a good idea of the traditions and culture through this tasting tour. It is a great way to start one’s trip in Athens learning about the best places to eat and visit. Thank you Voula!
