Enjoyable overview of this regions's cuisine - The tour was led by a bilingual guide. The grilled octopus drizzled with lemon and olive oil, the pork marinated in a blend of oregano and garlic, are some classics food dishes we enjoyed. It was like a flavorful overview of this cuisine of this region.

deserves more than 5 stars - Despite the rain deluge, we had a wonderful time on this food tour. Our guide Maria was fun and enthusiastic, and everywhere she took us was a culinary surprise. The tour is well thought-out, with a good variety of food and drink. The highlight is the mezze style meal that had too many dishes to count. I was afraid the dishes would be somewhat similar to Greek restaurants in the USA, but this was not the case. Everything was unique and different and new to me. I wish I could give this tour more than 5 stars!

A fun afternoon with good food - We spent a lovely afternoon with our guide Lef, who showed us around Athens hidden secrets when it comes to food. Lef kept up a very nice atmosphere and energy the entire. And we did certainly not go hungry. This will be a nice memory of Athens.

Mixed experience of food tasting tour - The guide and food tasting experience were excellent. However the company gave us the wrong meeting place so we missed the first stop. They were unapologetic and quite unpleasant.
