Marina, the tour guide, is everything a guide should be: kind, patient, and passionate about what she does. We not only tried street foods of Athens, but also had a full meal at a family run taverna. There were a total of five stops and by dessert, I could only manage two bites as I was so full. I would highly recommend the Athens Evening Food Tour- worth every penny! You not only experience amazing food, but you also get a guided walk through the streets of Athens!

Seeing Athens through great food

Marina did a great job walking us through a evening of food exploration and great conversations. After the evening tour my wife and I agreed that we could have gone home and felt that our Athens vacation was complete (and we hadn’t even seen the Parthenon yet). We traveled into the trendy neighborhoods to side street eateries that all offered mouth watering eats ranging from appetizers to a 5 course dinner. It was fun following the foodie Marina through her love of good food. I highly recommend this as a starting tour in Athens as you get a feel for the city and where to eat as you explore it. I’d give 6 stars but it’s not an option.

amazing tour with marina

It was absolutely awesome. Marina is such a warm and friendly person. She has a lot of knowledge and she takes you to real authentic food stalls. We loved every minute and came back for another tour. We would definitely do that again in our future visit to Athens. Thank you so much Marina - Greekality is our favorite way to explore the beautiful Athens.
