Yota was great! She gave us so much good information about the history and culture along the way as well as recommendations of what to order once we were on our own. 10/10 must visit for your first day in Athens!
Yota was an incredible and very knowledgeable guide! She brought us a lot of energy and history lessons. The bites we had were memorable. Highly recommend booking this tour!
Good experience at the right pace with Giota providing a healthy amount of variety and history in the walking element around Athens and definitely knowing her stuff about ingredients and menu items with a tasty collection of traditional Athens fayre. I also enjoyed chatting with the other people on the tour - not compulsory but a good group experience as a result.
Giota was an amazing tour guide, first day here in Athens and have learnt so much already. Good choices of food and the places picked were tasty! Was a great tour of the city too! Thanks so much, Love from New Zealand
Giota was a fantastic tour guide who mixed our food tastings with interesting facts about Greek history. The tour was well paved and we left stuffed. It was a wonderful tour for our first night in Athens.
The tour was really good, food was very tasty and our guide - Giota was really great; knowledgeable and chatty, the perfect combo for a tour guide Would definitely recommend
Amazing experience! Tried lots of food eaten in Greece, definitely great value for money! The crowd size was great and our tour guide Giota couldn’t have been more helpful! Would definitely recommend.
Guide was awesome - we had a great authentic experience!
Got to tour Athens and see all the good spots to eat. Highly recommend.
Giota was a fun and engaging tour guide and the food we had was so good! We left full so definitely come hungry. She was easy to find at the meeting point and gave us enough time to sit and enjoy the food at easy stop. I loved that she talked about the history of Athens and used food to highlight the many cultural influences and tell a story.
