Ti Ama was the most passionate, knowledgeable, and relatable guide i have ever had. Her information was more than just facts, it was stories with her family and friends that made me feel the culture so much more deeply. An experience I'll never forget (and neither will my taste buds).

This has been the highlight of our trip so far! Our guide (Tati, I think) was so friendly and very knowledgeable about Greek food and history. The food was absolutely delicious, as was the wine. We tasted 5 wines, had several appetizers, the best gyros, desert, and a couple of different liquors. We ended up with a very small group, which was great because it would have been difficult to hear otherwise.

Relaxed, interesting and tasty tour

We were lucky enough to do this tour for two with our guide (Max). This made it possible to have an intensive conversation, our guide inquired about our preferences and accordingly selected the dishes and wines individually. It was a lot of fun and you learned a lot about the city and the gastronomy. Highly recommended!
