If you are ever in Athens and you truly want to experience the food, shopping and culture that the area provides, then you must take the Athens Food Tour. For a few hours, you can really take in what Athens is all about. From the dining to the shopping and all of the history lessons that you are given, if... More

Simply a wonderful three hours excursion. Visited and sampled cuisine at 5 local eateries including a terrific Prohibition Era pup. All the establishments were locally owned and distinctive. Our tour guide Stella Smith was on the ball. She obviously had great relationships with the bistros for we received our food and.or drinks quickly and had tables made available for our... More

As a geeky scientist all the way from South Africa, and barely a week in this strange American town called Athens, Mary Charles Howard (the owner and our host/guide for the day) immediately made me feel at home! The Downtown tour was led in a friendly, warm, informative way; almost as if you were visiting your best friend from college... More

My daughter-in-law and I thoroughly enjoyed the Downtown Athens Food Tour this past weekend. Loved the variety of foods from Butternut Squash Ravioli to Mahi-Mahi Tacos to Peanut Butter Burger to an outstanding Mediterranean Pork-White Bean Stew -- plus wine, cocktails and handmade chocolate truffles thrown in. Three small courses in most places and all were wonderful! Menus and restaurants... More

My husband and I absolutely enjoyed the Prince Avenue dinner tour with Mary Charles this past weekend. We have visited Athens several times over the last year or so, and we wish we would have done a food tour sooner! Whether you are visiting Athens just once or you are a local of many years, Athens Food Tour comes highly... More

My husband and I recently visited Athens and went on the downtown food tour with Mary Charles. We experienced a wide variety of different foods and walked through the downtown area. Since we are considering relocating Mary Charles was very informative regarding activities and events in the area. We plan on going on another one of the tours when we... More

I have lived in or around Athens for the last thirty years and I never knew this town was so inviting. It was a unique perspective of Athens and the locals who work so hard to provide for the public- a "behind the scenes" look. at an incredibly diverse culture. Mary Charles was a phenomenal hostess.

I was apart of their largest party, over 20, and they handled the tour wonderfully. I was exposed to places in Athens, I probably would never had the chance to enjoy. More

I booked this trip for my anniversary as an alternative to just doing the usual dinner out sort of thing. I emailed Mary Charles and explained what the event was and she planned a great night in downtown Athens. We bought a package for two couples and brought along some friends. One of our friends is a handful as he... More

My husband and I moved to Athens, GA in August and when I knew my parents were coming into town I started looking up things to do. I discovered Athens Food Tours off of tripadvisor. I thought it would be a great adventure, as all of us were not familiar with Athens and its many eateries. It was such a... More
