This tour was so great! I got to try some absolutely amazing foods and they were all from traditional stores in Greece. It was great to walk around Athens with a local seeing the amazing sites and eating food it was the best thing I could of done. My guide was fantastic as well it was a private tour and he was very welcoming and full of information. Thanks Tassos so much for the amazing day!
