We booked the Athens for foodies tour in August 2016 and it was the best part of our trip! Christina, our guide was very fun and took us to many different shops around the city. We tasted so much traditional food, savory and sweets and visited local places where we couldn't have found on our own. It was very educational about the food tradition of Greece and at the end of the tour we were so full we couldn't go for lunch! It was so fun and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see the real Athens and taste the delicious Greek food!
