    A very enjoyable experience highlighting the small business owner! Pace yourself with the food samplings….there is a lot to taste.

    Doyle was a great guide. Very accommodating with dietary restrictions. The tour was far better than expected. Visiting shops from herbs and spices, to traditional lunch, and liquor. It was the perfect day.
    What a special treat!!

    What a wonderful experience. Julia clearly loves to share her love of Greek food and Athens. Everything was so well planned ( like making sure that at each place we stopped, a table was waiting and the food magically appeared. The various restaurants, food markets or local shops were ready to welcome us and personally give us a tour! This is a tour I’ve already recommended to friends!!
    It was amazing - Julia...

    The leader told interesting stories about the history of the food and the area. We tasted many kinds of olives and tried local dishes. It was fun.
    Excellent and authentic experience. Amazing stories combined with tasty food and drinks. As local as it gets. Recommend

    Julia and George are the dynamic duo, working in tandem to ensure a good experience. As natives they are able to properly introduce you to the richness of the Greek food culture. There was cheese, wine, legumes, olives…oh my! Rick Steves recommends and so do I. Enjoy, I did!
