"Taking the walking and food tour with Alternative Athens was one of the highlights of a 3 day tour of Athens. It was the best introduction to the city and local neighborhoods. We had tastings of wine, cheese, meze, coffee, and chocolate in a variety of local restaurants and stores that we would not have found on our own. At each stop we were treated as VIPs. We highly recommend this tour to people who want to experience life in Athens beyond the tourist spots."

"Our guide was excellent. He not only took us to try some great food, but showed us parts of Athens that we could not have found ourselves. I would recommend this tour to others."

"We had a great time on this tour. We loved learning about the history of the Olympic Games, learning different techniques for sporting disciplines, and visiting the Panathenaic Stadium. We also loved getting some gentle exercise, and the kids loved running a relay race! Our guide was excellent, fun, professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour for families with children. Something unique!"
