We had a great private food tour on our arrival day in Athens. Dionysis was flexible with our start time since our flight was slightly delayed. We went to more off the beaten places, which was our goal. He also followed up with recommendations for the rest of our stay. Our group of 4 really enjoyed our tour!Great day with Dionysis

Our family had a great time. He knows all the best places to go and has stories about everything. Just enough for a full day of sightseeing without being too much for our 10 year old. Perfect walking tour!

I was only in Athens a short time for the first time and wanted to get a sense and feel for the city. Dionysis was accommodating and really flexible. I booked for a much shorter time that we actually spent walking and touring. His archaeologist background and passion for Athens is evident with his knowledge and take on ancient Greece and the current state of things He has wonderful grecian hospitality and informative insight. After spending an already long day touring, Dionysis was a great addition to my visit. A great embassador! Efharisto.A little rivalry with Dionysus

We are a group of 6 from Chicago area. Dionysus was great, very knowledgeable and took us to places we wouldn’t have gone on our own. Food selection and amount was perfect and the walk around the streets of Athens was just what we were looking for. Excellent!

Dionysis was an amazing guide showing us some of the best food in Athens. He was also very knowledgeable about historical sites that we were able to view while walking between food experiences, which made the tour very well-rounded. Amazing food and history

Our family of four spent three hours with Dionysis walking around central Athens. We were taken to fascinating areas away from the tourist hot spots. Dionysis told us many interesting facts and answered our questions clearly. He also provided links to recommended eating places and good, practical advice about where and when to see the sights. We would recommend Dionysis without reservation.Interesting and informative

Dionysis gave us an awesome tour of Athens. We really enjoyed our day even with touring with a 2 1/2 year old an 4 month old. He was very flexible and patient with the toddler and adjusted as needed. We saw so many things that we would have never discovered on our own. He also gave us a great dinner recommendation for dinner at Lolo's. Thanks Dionysis. Athens Tour with Dionysis

Dionysius was extremely knowledgeable and informative about Greek history and mythology. We learned that the words, “politics and idiot” were derived from Greek. Love it! He was lots of fun and answered every question we had with great depth. An informative morning with Dionysis!

Dionysis was on time, warm and friendly. He took his time to give us a wonderful walking tour interspersed with many facts of Greek mythology and history, and other nuggets that only locals would know ranging from underground rivers to ancient politics.

We had an incredible time with Dionysis in Athens! From start to finish, he was fun, friendly, and knew so much about the city’s culture. Our Greek food tasting tour with him was a real highlight, and it felt like exploring the city with a friend. He made everything feel so personal and had a way of instantly connecting with us. If you want an unforgettable Athens experience, Dionysis is your guy!Exploring Athens with a friend

Dionysis was a wonderful guide. He showed us the markets which were so interesting and shared so much about local history. The food was fabulous and we were stuffed by the end. He did a great job working around my celiac gluten allergy. Great food tour of Athens.

Tracy🇺🇸 United States

27 septiembre 2024

We met Dionysis at @ 12:30 and spent 3 pleasant hours walking, talking and eating our way around Athens. Dionysis was attentive to our likes and dislikes and ordered our tastes accordingly. We walked through the meat and fish markets the had wonderful calamari, anchovies, meatballs, veggies both fried and fresh with a spiced cheese spread and some coffee. Next we went to another spot for sausage, gyros and fries. Then went to another bakery for the best spanikopita ever with handmade phyllo dough. We also some succulent pork skewers and ended our food tour with fresh, hot doughnuts. Our only complaint and it is minor - Dionysis is a smoker and my husband hates the smell. I thought he was very discreet with his smoking, but it was the only negative. Dionysis has a great personality and was very easy to talk with.Great walk with wonderful food

It was very enjoyable to explore different neighborhoods of Athens outside of the typical touristy areas. Dionysis was extremely knowledgeable, and what I particularly liked is he could answer many of our questions outside of the information he was presenting. Plus, he had a very pleasant way about him and adjusted to our pace when necessary. Experience different dimensions of Athens!

Dionysis was our walking tour guide. There were 5 of us. His knowledge of Athens past and present was exceptional. Never rushed us. Adapted to our pace and our interests. Created a relationship by paying attention to everyone in our group. The tour hit all the right places. It was a great experience! He followed up by sending us recommendations for places to eat and to have drinks. Knowledgeable authentic guide

Dionysius was the perfect guide for our 3 generation tour. Not only did he keep everyone engaged but the food and sights were outstanding. There were a variety of tastings from stuffed grape leaves to a meze plate to meat skewers and finally donuts for dessert. Along the way Dionysis pointed out historical sights and street art. If you're in Athens, don't hesitate to sign up for this tour.Food and much more

Great food selection and Dionsys was very knowledgeable and friendly We visited authentic greek places to eat and drink. We learned about food culture. Different neighborhoods and vibes. For each of them a little story. Dionysis seemed knowledgeable about greek and athens history. He also gave a lot of insights about the athens of today with nuanced answers. Dionysis was relaxed and adapted well with our own rhythm and pace and also spoke very good english. Thank you very much Great experiende with Dionysis

Highly recommended! Dionysis was a great tour guide, who had a great knowledge about Athens and was amazing in taking care of our needs. We were a group of four adults and two small kids - which made it challenging to explore Athens. But Dionysis had no problems with taking shortcuts, unplanned stops and special needs. Dionysis, we wish you all the best and stay as you are 😊Great, individual tour with kids!

Just average places and stopped for bread by a diesel smelling restaurant. He’s a nice guide but wasn’t on his “A” game. Pleasant and informative… just didn’t make us want to say … “I cannot wait to see more with you”Underwelming
