This is one of best tours I’ve taken. My first time in Athens, first time in Greece - the tour was perfect intro to the city, I really felt oriented after it. The tour guide was one of the best I’ve had, not only very knowledgeable but with a great sense of humor. I always try to do a food and/or market tour in a new city, Devour tours were available, and this one stands out. I was traveling with a friend who had never done a food tour before on her travels, she’s now a convert and is planning her next Devour tour. My wish for everyone visiting Athens to share in this experience. Thank you!

Our tour experience was amazing! Theo (our guide) made us feel very comfortable and welcomed. It was a great experience to learn Greek history and culture through this food experience. We’ve already scheduled Devour tours in Florence and Madrid for later this month and are so excited. Thank you Theo!
