Eleni was a great hostess for our food tour. She was very knowledgeable about the food and its preparation, taking us to well established and locally supported venues. Her knowledge of the area and the history of Crete were very important in making the experience exceptional. A lovely person with a joyful and charming personality.

About local Kalliopi

Kalliopi was an excellent and knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed our tour around the city learning about the history of Crete and Heraklion as well as our food at the end of the tour. Would absolutely recommend!
