If you are spending any time in Athens', then I highly recommend adding this tour to your list. It was a great complement to our historic tour earlier in the week. The rich history on who/how/why some of these creations came about was very interesting in addition to who influenced who/what. After learning/visiting the markets around town, we ended the tour having an incredible lunch and soaking up more history/culture on Greece. HINT: Come hungry because you will have more food to try than you know what to do.
