Great tour - worth the money and time - We had two excellent tour guides - Niovi and Stella. Niovi did an excellent job discussing the acropolis. She had excellent information and was a great tour guide. Stella did an excellent job of the food tour - we thoroughly enjoyed her commentary and the food we tasted.

Acropolis walking - The tour guide for group (19) was exceptional, she took the time to explain the history of Greece and detailed explanation of archeology of Acropolis. The negative comments we have is that we should arrive at the meetings place at least 15 minutes before the start of the tour at 8:30am. But other tour participants didn’t arrive until 9 am. We highly recommend a very good and comfortable shoes with good traction.

Delightful views, delectable bites - A tasty and educational tour. The Acropolis tour was very educational and the views were second to none. Our tour guide Hermes was knowledgeable and ensured that we had enough time to take photos and also kept us in shady areas. The latter was very much appreciated during the sunny day.
For the food tour, our guide Stella, was so kind and provided us with a delectable experience. All places were in the Athens city center, and walking from place to place was seamless. As a vegetarian, I can confirm that the food tour was indeed vegetarian friendly and I got to experience local dishes. My advice would be to try everything you can - especially the coffee.

Amazing tour! - The Acropolis & Athens Highlights with Food Tasting was amazing! It was nice to skip the lines and we learned so much about the Acropolis.
The highlight of our tour was the Food Tasting with Eva. She is a fantastic tour guide! We learned so much about Greek history, culture and the food. She made sure that we all had a great time and were well fed. We did not want our time with her to come to an end! We would not hesitate to recommend this tour with Eva. Thank you for a memorable time!

Good food and good views - The tour was so educational and everyone was very friendly. I recommend doing the food portion of the tour because we learned a lot, ate good friend and saw some parts of Athens we wouldn’t have otherwise seen.

Good tour and knowledgeable guides - Great tour. Adonis our guide for the Parthenon portion was very knowledgeable about the site and history. We joined the food walking tour with Eva who is so fun and took us to the best places for authentic, traditional food. Easy walking, nice small group. Mask up at the Acopolis, lots of people up top.

Super informative tour of Acropolis. To long to do tasting tour. - Acrópolis tour with Apoollo was excellent. But after the uphill climb and walking around the Acropolis we were too tired to the entire food tour with Angelo.
