The incredible views and the awesome hiking. We had a fantastic tour guide, as well. Definitely worth it! Do not need to purchase the ticket with it, however. It is much cheaper to just buy a ticket for the bus and get the ticket to the site there

Different locations to test the food and drinks. Love the variety. Really enjoyed the family style lunch with the group to be able to test all the local cuisine or favorites. Enjoyed the experience of traditional Greek coffee. Guide was knowledgeable taking us around the area and explaining the foods and drinks and what made them unique. Highly recommend!

This tour was 4 delicious hours of tasting local greek flavors. Everything was mouth watering, I didn't want it to end. But it's more than just a culinary feast- the guide will explain everything: from the ingredients that make up your food to the hidden tavernas you MUST visit when in the city.
My favorite part was visiting the spice street (maybe because I am a sucker for spices). The minute we hit the streets I knew I'd come home :') There were so many local vendors, each with their own baskets of spices. Very friendly people too, no one is over selling their products or anything. They let you sample too. What a treat. Back to Canada now but gonna be ordering Greek cuisine for a few days #FOMO haha

Christina was excellent and the street food tour was such a great way to see the city and experience local food and culture and visit restaurants we wouldn't have known about. Highly recommend!!

There's just something about this athens street food tour that i still can't seem to get over. it's been a little over a week since I got back home and no doubt i'm still 100% in Greece on this street hopping tour. knew i had to write a review as soon as i got back. first of all make sure you carry money with you, and it helps if you have change. the streets can get pretty crowded so make sure you don't carry any valuables on you. other than that it was pretty smooth. had no trouble and of course the food was just to die for. i think im still reeling on olive oil -thankfully i picked up a bottle for myself- can't wait to start using it in EVERYTHING. i think the best wy to get to know any city is by getting to know its cuisine and get to know the locals, both of which are included on this tour. for that reason alone i would recommend this 100%

Many things about this tour to say:
1. The food market tour is an exciting touch. Even with the pandemic and its restrictions it was pretty crowded (not a bad kind of crowded) and everyone was safe.
2. LOVED our tour guide, Christina. Such a professional with such a flair for language and gave us so much additional information about where to go, where to eat, etc.
3. Tried mezes (greek tapas) for the first time- quite tasty. A little too healthy for my taste (hehe) but would definitely try it again (only in Greece though).
4. Was skeptical about taking a walking tour but it was surprisingly easy. Flat streets and a decent walk.
5. Do not forget to pick up a few things along the way for yourself. You have to pay for it yourself but ultimately worth it. I picked up a few spices and a bottle of olive oil.

The tour said it started at 8am but didn't start until 9am. I felt like the stays on the islands were too short. Very rushed.
The yacht was really nice and comfortable. The yacht crew were very friendly. The food and drinks were also great.

This cruise is worth every cent, great value for money, we were picked up and dropped off from centre of Athens. The crew were amazing and took great care of us. The islands we visited were absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend, you won't regret it!
