Expected more food or samples of a better quality. Ending restaurant was particularly indifferent. Done

I had such a wonderful experience on the food and market tour in Athens. It was both fascinating and delicious. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, not only about food but also about the city’s history and culture, which made everything even more engaging. The tour felt intimate and personal, giving us the chance to ask questions and really connect. The highlights for me were definitely the spanakopita and boureka – absolutely amazing – and the gyro we had at the end was excellent as well. The atmosphere was fun and relaxed, with a lovely group of people and pleasant walks between the stops. I’d recommend this tour to anyone who loves food and wants to discover the city through the eyes of a true local.

I ate breakfast before the 9:30 tour- big mistake!! I couldn’t enjoy all the food they gave us, which included large sesame pretzel type thing, charcuterie with three kinds of homemade sliced meat, feta cheese and a delicious cheddar type cheese, wine and raki, fresh grapes (the best ever- so sweet and fresh they popped when you bit them, a beef sandwich called a slovakia or something like that, and lastly a fried dough covered with honey and cinnamon. We had to walk to each place, so went through many different neighborhoods. Besides these two places, we went to a honey and olive oil tasting and a tasting for Greek liqueurs. In the honey and olive oil place, I bought some honey/based creams. Our guide Micki (Nicki?) spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable and nice. Our group of 8 got along very well. Lots of exercise and good food! It exceeded my expectations
