Ismene took us on a wonderful tour through the streets and backstreets to visit a wide variety of food merchants. Each stop was unique and the food was fantastic. We followed the advice of previous reviewers, "Don't eat breakfast beforehand!", and it was spot-on! Ismene was very engaging and knowledgeable, and we had so much fun with her. We enjoyed every bite, plate and tasting - cheeses, breads, sausage, wine, fish, cakes, coffee... We highly recommend this tour!

This was a nicely paced walking tour with lots of insights about Greek culture, farming and a bit of history. We got to see the meat market, the produce market, and walk around the economic centre of Athens. It is a perfect amount of food to cover breakfast and lunch. You have to purchase your own drinks so bring cash for that or bring a large water bottle. You also have the chance to buy fruit or other small food items at the stalls we stopped at. Ilyas was an excellent guide! We did this tour on our last day in Athens and didn't find it too repetitive of the food we had already eaten. My favourite stops were the cheese shop and olive stand.

Tatialena was such a joy as our guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable and her personality was incredibly engaging. Our favorites were the handmade pies and the sheep’s milk yogurt!

We had a great time with our tour guide Minnie and her choices of restaurants and knowledge of Athens was outstanding. Our kids still had a good time during the wine tour part and enjoyed all the food. It was our last night in Athens but as others may comment also a good choice for first evening to get a feel for the area and where to go back!

I absolutely loved this food tour. Our tour guide ( I wish I remembered her name) was AMAZING. She was young and petite, with short brown hair- only writing her description because I want her to get credit for this review! Anyway, she was very personable and fun to be around. It would not be as fun of a tour if it were not for her. We also ate so much, so PLEASE do not eat breakfast! Also, take small bites throughout the tour because there is A LOT of food. We tried breakfast foods like sesame "bagels," meat/cheese pies, authentic Greek cheeses and yogurt, deli meat, two wines, and all types of olives. Later we went to a fish and meat market to eat a giant dinner of various seafood, moussaka, fava beans, and potatoes. We ended the tour with coffee and dessert. Overall, I tried so many foods that I would have otherwise not tried on my own. This tour is well worth the price, TRUST ME. It was our first food tour and definitely not our last, I just hope that future ones we take will be as good as this one! Thank you Greeking.me, and our wonderful tour guide!

Was on a 1 day layover in Athens by myself so literally only had 12 hours to explore the city. As a major foodie, I had to start with the food. I got the opportunity to experience almost all of my bucket list items of Traditional Greek Food in the span of 4 hours! The only down side was getting full eating all the food that I couldn't eat anymore. The tour guide Irene was highly knowledgable about the food and the history that surrounds it as well as the history of different areas of the city.

We had the best tour with Penelope. The group was small and we got to try so many different things! She shared the rich history of the city on the walk as well as the food we tried, and was so kind. Highly recommend this as a way to navigate the Greek menu and learn more about where to spend your time in Athens!
