Great tour - The Taste of Athens Food Tour was great. Our guide was knowledgeable about food and Athens history/culture. The size of the group (10) made it manageable and we were able to experience small restaurants rather than large tourist spots. The food selection was great abd there was a lot. Highly recommended!

Food and Fun Under the Grecian Sun. - This was an amazing opportunity, with so many wonderful food to try and culture to take in. Athina was our tour guide, she was great! Was so kind and knowledgeable about anything and everything we asked. The Monastiraki Square in the Plaka area was wonderful!

Excellent - "So far, every tour we've taken with Viator has been a success. We especially want to thank Athena, who led us on an amazing food tasting tour. She introduced us to the essential Greek dishes that every tourist should try. Athena was not only professional but also incredibly friendly, making the tour an unforgettable experience for us. Thank you, wonderful Athena! 🙏❤️"

Lots of delicious food to try - We had a great time on this tour with plenty of food and drinks including alcohol even though it was still morning! This didn’t stop us though. Nina in the liqueur shop was wonderful. 2 points which could have improved it even more: - a coffee at the first stop seeing as it was in lieu of breakfast for us - a bottle of water for each guest would have been a nice touch. We have had this on other food tours. Thank you to Z you were a great guide and very entertaining and interesting.

Fantastic Personal Tour - We had a wonderful tour! My brother and I turned out to be the only two who booked that day, so we got a very personal tour of the food and culture in Athens. Illiana was a fantastic guide - very friendly, gave lots of context on everything we explored, and answered all our many questions about living in Athens. Many thanks to her, and I highly recommend it!
