Private Gourmet Food Walking Tour in Athens
Varvakeios, the Central Municipal Athens Market, is one of the most famous markets in Athens and offers fresh fruits and vegetables from local produce.
Traditionally brewed Greek coffee during a stop at Mokka, a traditional Greek coffee shop on Athinas street in central Athens.
Legends say Loukoumades were offered to the winners of the first Olympic Games, and at Krinos the typical Greek street food is still prepared in a traditional way with honey syrup and cinnamon.

Very nice guide but not for real foodies

We were not too impressed with this food tour. The guide was absolutely lovely and tried her best. To answer our questions, she was a whatsapp away from her boss for the answers. But it was not for real foodies. We discovered Diporto, Stani and some other real incredible options on our own and after our tour.

D was a amazing guide, taking us around to so many great places that we'd missed and explaining the what and why alongside sharing great food and drinks with us. Highly recommend the tour and Ds passion for what she does really made it a little more than just a tour. Seriously, do it.

Anna gave a great tour. We loved visiting the markets and the gourmet shops. We were able to sample and taste. Our guide had great relationships with the vendors and she really cared about the people she interacted with. In the coffee shop we visited (coffee brewed on sand, I was skeptical but I loved it) some tourists needed help and she helped them. Our guide was a kind person with a passion for food and for exploring the city.

By far. this was one of the best tours I've been on. Our tour guide (can't remember her name. But she was amazing.) We tried so many different Greek food, went to a meat and fish market, so many herbs and spices, tried different wines and liqueurs, went through so many different areas and etc.. long story short: If you ever get a chance to visit Athens Greece, this tour is a must.
