Testimonials

"Andreas, our guide (excellent English and conversationalist) provided an insiders tour of Athens based on our inputs. We found the sights and history amazing! Each stop had a unique story and wonderful Greek hospitality. A great chance for seeing nightlife and local spots!"

"Lena and Kristos were fantastic. They fed us lots of food and drinks. The best part, however, was the discussions we had with them. Whenever I travel, I always try to schedule a meal with a local family, or a cooking lesson, and I've never been disappointed. You'll learn so much about the culture! We spent almost four hours in their home and left with a new understanding of the Greek psyche."

"This tour takes you through all areas of Athens, and shows you some of the best stops for authentic Greek food. I would happily recommend this tour to anyone who wants a foodie introduction to this wonderful city, you won't regret booking with Alternative Athens."
