We have just returned from the “Delicious Chania Street Food Tour” which was led by Manos. It was a superb tour and Manos was excellent with his knowledge of Chania and Greece in general. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who wants a taste of Chania. The food was exceptional at all locations - and the locals were a joy to meet!

Fabulous!

JohnScott_F, Jul 2026
Tour with Goldy was amazing, great combination of history and food, super kind, added extra information with art and mythology references. Felt very comfortable, great understanding Cretan culture and history. Food amazing.

Amazing experience for our family!

Catherine_C, Jul 2026
Our food tour was an amazing introduction to Greece history, food, and culture! Our guide was so knowledgeable and patient with our 11 year old son. All of the food was tasted was excellent and we received many great recommendations for the rest of our time in Crete. We will highly recommend this food tour for anyone looking to learn more about Crete and sample the delicious traditional foods.

A fun experience that acquaints you with local tastes and a little history

Keren_G, Jul 2026
This was a really easy, enjoyable and friendly tour at an easy pace with a local guide. The meeting point was a bit challenging with no english signs but the entire tour was fantastic.

Great food, good for cruisers

Mary_S, Jun 2026
It was a nice easy-paced walk through old Chania with wonderful food stops and a bit of history. For cruisers, the very inexpensive 3.60 Euros round trip) shuttle bus takes you from the cruise dock to the middle of the old town. The start of the tour is only about 3 blocks away. Very easy to navigate.

Fantastic food tour and more!!!

Nathan_H, Jun 2026

This tour is officially my favorite of my whole trip! Our guide was kind, friendly and extremely welcoming. I was in a small group of myself and three other people. The tour was close and easy to walk. Please please go on this tour!

Best food tour!

Carina_F, Jun 2026
This was our favorite food tour. Our guide Antonis was wonderful, he was very knowledgeable and extremely kind. He took us to SO MANY places, we tried so much food, he kept asking us he we needed more, if we wanted more water, he made sure we were happy with everything. We fell in love with the city and the food. We loved it so much that it was hard to say goodbye to Antonis. What an amazing experience!

Great food!

Sonia_W, Jun 2026
Come hungry! Be prepared to walk a good bit and wear sunscreen and/or a hat. The tour is well paced with plenty of stops to rest, take bathroom breaks and get water. Manos our guide was really great! He was not only knowledgeable about the food but the history of Chania and Crete as well!

Come hungry and get ready for a delicious day!

Joanne_T, Jun 2026
We had the best time! Great way to experience Chania. There were 5 of us and we started in the morning with some great coffee/tea and a delicious cheese phyllo pastry only made in Crete. We met our guide, Aria who was the best guide we’ve had on any tour. She was so knowledgeable, friendly and easy to communicate with. She catered our tour to our family. We experienced local shops and restaurants getting to try many delicious authentic Crete foods and learning about the different areas of the city, some history and some shopping areas. By the time we were finished we felt as though we had seen the best parts of the city and had tasted the foods that define the area. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite and would highly recommend Aria for this tour!!

Great variety and quantity of foid

Plenty of food and tastings to enjoy along with wonderful Old Town sites and views! Amina was so lovely and we enjoyed ourselves on this private evening tour!

Our Wonderful Guide Elene

Emily_S, Jun 2026
Elene was AMAZING. So full of knowledge and culture. She knew all the best spots. We had delicious food and a truly wonderful time. One of the best parts of our trip in Crete! Thank you, Elene!

Amazing food tour!

JENNIFER_O, May 2026
We had an absolutely fantastic food tour with Goldie! She took us all around the city, introducing us to incredible local foods that we never would have found on our own. Every stop was delicious, and we left feeling like we had experienced the true flavors of the area. What made the tour especially memorable was Goldie’s knowledge and enthusiasm. Along the way, she shared fascinating history, local culture, and even Greek mythology, which brought everything to life and gave us a much deeper appreciation for the places we visited. Goldie was warm, engaging, and clearly passionate about both the food and the stories behind it. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and we would highly recommend her tour to anyone wanting an authentic, fun, and delicious experience. Thank you, Goldie! 🇬🇷❤️🍷🍽️

Wonderful tour and tour guide!

Jill_F, May 2026
The tour was incredible and so was our tour guide Amina! She was very knowledgeable and so nice. We tasted wonderful and authentic Greek food and saw interesting landmarks! We highly recommend this tour.

Elena was great! She was...

crystal_f, May 2026
Elena was great! She was very knowledgeable and open to sharing her experiences with us. It was nice having a small group and plenty of stops to rest and enjoy good food.

Not worth the price

John_B, May 2026
Guide was a nice enough chap but I have to be honest and say it was a pretty low energy “tour”. Not told a great deal about the food or the town. I think for £80 there has to be value proposition beyond a few snacks and the odd comment on said snacks. I expected a bit of a history tour of the old town centred around food. For contrast I paid £40 for a near full day tour in Santorini to Akrotiri and a few village stops with a really enthusiastic guide telling us lots, even pointing out flowers as we walked around.

Food tour in Chania

Tyler_N, May 2026
Manos was our guide and he was phenomenal. His tour included a lot of Greek culture and history, in addition to trying olives, cheeses, gyros, coffee, pastries and meze. We also did olive oil tastings. We did a leisurely walk around town, stopping at 6 locations for food, and a couple more places for cultural enrichment. We highly recommend Manos and this tour.

Food Tasting Walking Tour

Doug_N, May 2026
Aria was engaging, knowledgeable and fun. We tasted olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, liqueurs, olives, gyros, and pastries.

A Delight

Starr_W, May 2026
Amina was our fabulous guide. We not only tried many delicious Cretan foods, we were shown an amazing city with a long history. We heard about and saw so much we would have missed. We learned a lot about Crete and its delicious food. Having done many food tours, Amina made this one of our favourites.

Amazing Must Do Tour!!

Janis_C, May 2026
Manos was an amazing tour guide! His love for Greek food and his country showed through. Local food and businesses provide a fabulous 4 hour tour. Starts with breakfast and Greek coffee or tea. Wandering throughout the streets hearing history of Crete is wonderful. Olive and olive oil taste testing along with gelato continue the tour ending with an amazing lunch of appetizers of the best Greek cuisine. Greek beer or wine was also included. Bottled water was also included during the day. Manos was a superb guide. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this excursion!!

Don't miss this tour not just the food but the history

Tim_W, May 2026
Little taste of everything. So much food, so many tastings. Everything was fantastic you also get to learn about the new and old Chania. Our tour guy was local born and bred. Took our kids with us. Had a great time and would highly recommend.

Our favourite tour in Chania

Jesse_V, May 2026
Go in hungry, you will eat a LOT. Our guide was amazing and helpful and local to Chania. He knew all of the best places for a variety of Cretan specialties - everything we ate was amazing. We particularly enjoyed sampling local oil, vinegar and honey from a supplier in town where you could buy the products to take home. Would highly recommend.

Don’t eat before going, seriously

Danita_B, May 2026
There is SO MUCH FOOD. SO MUCH. Don’t eat before going on this. All of the people in my group were struggling to finish by the second to last stop. There are so many delicious things in Crete. The bougatsa was amazing, and the fava bean spread at the mezze stop was another favorite. Oh and the Cretan dakos (~bruschetta) is chef’s kiss. You will be in a food coma after this.

Yamas in Chania

Carrie_I, Apr 2026
We love walking food tours & this did not disappoint! Our guide, Manos, was extremely personable, kind, helpful, knowledgeable and funny! He was extra careful with our daughter’s peanut allergy. He provided us with recommendations for points of interest & delicious restaurants around Chania and Crete, in general. We HIGHLY recommend this tour, especially Manos!

Charming streets, so many tastes, and a wealth of info!

Beth_J, Apr 2026
Aria was so wonderful! She was personable, knowledgeable and friendly. We really enjoyed her open candor and insight into her very believed island! Highly recommend this tour!

Great food tour. Good for families.

JON_P, Mar 2026
Great tour. Our guide was funny, full of history, and did his very best to make a cold rainy day as fun as possible. We stopped at a ton of great places to eat, saw lots of old town, and went away as full as possible. First tour I have taken where everyone in the group was stuffed. Would highly recommend. Our group was a family with two teenagers.

Informative, Fun and Delicious - a really great food tour!

Diane_H, Dec 2025
This was just a great tour! It was a lot of fun, our guide was so informative about the foods of Crete and at every place we went to, the food was delicious and plentiful! Would highly recommend and don't hesitate to book this food tour!
