      A very yummy experience!
      I’ve been on many food tours and this was one of the best! Mary Cate was a very knowledgeable guide and very engaging. The tour not only showcased a variety of foods but also a variety of neighborhoods. A small group size was also a positive. Well done !

      Wonderful tour of the Acropolis!!
      This was a very good tour of Athens and the Acropolis. Our tour guide, Simon, was very informative on the history and mythology. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to do a guided tour through the Acropolis. Please make sure you have good walking shoes, as we walked approximately 4.5 miles during our tour and many of the marble surfaces are slick. Also, make sure to pre-purchase your entry tickets or contact the guides to purchase for you. One couple didn't do this and we're not able to go on the tour.

      Sooooo much food!!
      This morning we had the pleasure of eating our way around parts of Athens with Joseph! Joseph was a great guide who, while walking, provided us with a lot of great info about Greece, Athens and the history of is diverse foods! We tried a LOT of delicious food (too much to finish alone) and had the chance to tour some areas of the city we hadn’t had a chance to venture to yet. By the end of the tour we were completely stuffed, but had a better understanding of Greece’s gastronomy history!! Thank you Joseph for a great tour!! Pro tip- bring wet wipes your hands are going to get messy🤣

      What a great day!
      What a fantastic day! Our tour guide Kimon was the best - he has a background in archaeology; he's so knowledgeable and a great story teller. I learned so many cool things throughout the day, saw all the beautiful sites I wanted to see, and had a good laugh. All in all a great day! Would definitely recommend Kimon, so glad we had him.

      A journey into time
      My wife and I completed the Mythological Tour with Kimon and a group of half a dozen other couples. We both found the tour to be incredibly informative. Kimon proved to be very knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor and connection with group. He seemed like an interesting guy to grab a beer with. At the end he read a quote from Perakles which I found to be moving and very topical even in today’s times. I would recommend this tour and our guide to any of our friends/family visiting Athens.

      Unique Exploration of Athens
      We did the street art tour with Leo. He was very passionate about street art as an art form and as an Athenian form of expression. The tour was well paced, and Leo took the time to answer our questions about the art and the cultural and political context it was created under. He also shared a helpful follow up PDF with the artist names. We were able to recognize an artist he had shown us on our own when we were walking around later that evening! I would recommend this tour highly to anyone visiting the area, interested in art, or who wants to see a bit more of modern Greek life.

      An invaluable experience!
      We loved this tour so much. Andreas was a very engaging host, teaching and showing us so much about modern and historical Greek culture in a fun and relaxed way. We went to some incredible venues that we would never have found on our own. Highly recommend!

      Great learning and walking tour!
      This tour was an excellent experience for my family, including our teenage son, who admires street art. We learned a ton and saw some incredible artwork. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about Athens, the artists and the artwork. Highly recommend!

      Good tour
      This was the last tour we did on the vacation . It was a nice break from normal type of tour and fun to hear the different stories . The only reason I took away a star was because the acropolis area was jam packed which caused our guide to skip over some of the areas on the lower part of the hill and rush to the top . Bring lots of water !

      An engaging tour to participate in once in Athens.
      Andreas Mogridge was an amazing tour guide who provided us with a wealth of information of all the most important neighborhoods, culture, foods and history of Athens. Highly energetic tour guide with an engaging personality and very interesting tidbits. This is not your typical visit. A must to do once in Athens.

      Phenomenal tour!
      This tour was incredible!! Antonia was extremely informative and knowledgeable and made this tour of Athens come to life with stories of mythology! Highly recommend for those visiting the Acropolis, Parthenon, and Agora. However, bear in mind, tickets to the sites are sold separately.

    We had an excellent guide - Andreas - who gave us an amazing tour of coffee, olive oil, baklava, soulvlaki, markets (meat, fish and veggie), small plates at a taverna and a couple of different desserts. Definitely bring a good appetite. Would highly recommend to others. Note we had a group of 11 and it included 2 vegetarians.

    Elisabeth was our wonderful guide for the the walking food tour. Our group of 3 and 2 other ladies were treated to a superb tour of amazing shops bars and tavernas in hidden away places. We all agreed it was one of the highlights of our trip. It was all the more special because of Elizabeth’s knowledge of all things Greek, her humour and patience and genuine desire to ensure we were enjoying the tour. Thankyou!

    Andreas was our guide for the morning tour. Wow pretty much sums it up. He was not only great about the food that he chose for us to taste, his historical stories really made the tour special. He took great care of us and we ate and saw places we did not know were here in Athens. Made our trip here even better. Highly recommend. If you love food and have a couple hours to spare during your visit go and do this tour!

    Andreas is the best tour guide ever , we loved this tour . We did a total of 5 tours in Greece and this was our favorite . Our tour guide Andreas explained everything so well and his connection and explanation that he gave was really good . We had so much to eat that towards the end we couldn’t finish our souvlaki. Which tasted soooooo good . When you do this tour and you must !! Do ask for Andreas . He is a real down to earth guy , professional and to the point . It was completely above our expectation. Also he emailed us recipes which i can’t wait to use .

    I loved every minute of the food tour! What a lovely way to visit Athens! Maria our tour guide was amazing, and gave us just the right amount of details on the history of the neighbourhoods of Athens, as well as telling us about all the different foods we ate. What we ate was delicious and walking around made it easier to waste the delicious calories we ate! Highly recommended!!

    What an awesome experience. Andreas our tour guide was impressive from beginning to end. The food was tasty, fresh and so delicious. The tour was informative and educational, Andreas did an excellent job of guiding us through the streets of Athens. His knowledge of Athens, its history, culture and people -- and how it all influenced the food in modern Athens was impressive and informative. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens.
