Nadine Braehmer • May 9, 2025

If you're planning a trip to Athens, visiting the Acropolis and exploring the ancient ruins is a must—but to truly experience Greek culture, you need to taste it. And the best way to do that?

Book a food tour in Athens with Foodprint Tours.



From fresh-baked koulouri to creamy tzatziki and sizzling souvlaki, Athens is a city with a rich and flavorful food scene rooted in centuries of tradition. Our local guides will take you beyond the tourist traps and into the heart of authentic Athenian cuisine.

1. Discover Hidden Food Gems Only Locals Know

Athens is filled with tucked-away bakeries, bustling markets, and family-run tavernas that most visitors miss. On our food tour, you'll taste traditional Greek dishes at places locals love, not touristy restaurants. It's the kind of experience you'd only find if you had a friend in the city—and we’re here to be that friend.


2. Taste a Variety of Dishes in One Walk

Greek food is more than gyros. On our tour, you’ll get to sample a wide variety of dishes—savory pies, local cheeses, honey-drenched loukoumades, seasonal fruits, meze plates, and more. It’s like a full meal (or two!) spread out across different stops, so you can explore both the food and the neighborhood.


3. Learn the Stories Behind the Food

Each dish you try tells a story. Whether it's the ancient origins of Greek olive oil or how moussaka became a national staple, our local guides share cultural insights that make every bite more meaningful. It's not just a tasting—it's a deeper look into Greek history and daily life through food.


4. Support Local Businesses

When you book a food tour in Athens with us, you’re directly supporting small, family-owned businesses. We carefully choose stops that align with our values—authenticity, quality, and community. Your experience helps keep these culinary traditions alive.
