About
Our main priority at Athens Walks Tour Company is to give you an experience through our Athens tours. We don’t focus only on the encyclopedia knowledge of the tours. This information can be found in any tour guide book. Our focus is to give you the chance to experience the Greek culture and to understand Athens not only as a sightseeing destination but also as the lifestyle and themes of its inhabitants. We go to the hidden places of the city where locals go and you enjoy a tour of the true Athens along with its thousands of years of history, its endless variety of restaurants and local stores, its long coastline, or its green hills in the center of life for thousands of years. You choose your tour and we take the responsibility to show what makes an Athens tour so special. The hospitality and the passion of its citizens, the culture and the tradition, the stories and the themes. Our guides have been hired by Athens Walks with a focus application. To create memorable experiences.

This food tour was superb, an excellent way to begin any trip!

First off, our tour guide Anabelia was knowledgeable, kind and thoughtful throughout the tour. She greeted people in the streets as we passed by through winding alleys and showed us some secrets of Athens that we would have never have discovered on our own. She taught us the names of different districts, food and gave us some historical information too. She also taught us how to to cross the street with authority, which we’re still practicing at this time.

As for the food, everything was spectacular! The best part of the food tour is the opportunity to try many more dishes then you possibly could if you weren’t travelling with a large group.

On this trip I have had the best coffee of my life. It was delicate smooth and I’ve been dreaming of it since we left the city. There’s so many souvenirs I wanted to buy as a result of this tour through the spice market to the fancy vinegars.

My advice is simple, book this tour. Prepare to eat large amounts of mouthwatering food and finally save some room in your suitcase to bring some of these spices back with you.

Kimon (Simon) was our guide for the four hour tour. He was exceptional & extremely informative! Highly recommend (and I’d you are lucky you’ll get Kimon)! The company itself seems well managed and was easy to get to. We loved the small group we had, after seeing some of the other tour groups it made us appreciate it even more. Kimon was great about finding us shaded spots (very warm morning), while informing us of this amazing ancient spectacular. The send half of the tour, the museum, is also extremely recommended! Having a tour guide through the museum allowed us to ask questions we would have otherwise had to find answers to in our own.

We had great customer service from the Athens Walks Tour Company. They messaged us before the tour and made sure that we were made to feel welcome.
Our guide Alex was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He made the tour special by being interested in his group and adjusting the pace to suit everyone’s needs.
First class!

We were a party of 4 and had the best private tour of the Acropolis by Orestis with Athens Walks Tour Company. He started with a great tour of the museum to give us some well needed background history of the Acropolis which really brought it to life when we actually saw it in person. He was so knowledgeable, funny and helpful. He also gave us some great restaurant recommendations. We would highly recommend him.

I booked the acropolis+museum guided tour and to be honest I was absolutely happy with the guiding. I beleive it depends on the guide mostly (in our case was Stelios -kudos!- ) and he was so knowledgeable. I've done many guided tours in several places but trust me that this one was top. He was kind with the kids in the group, and considering the extreme hot weather he had a good manage of the group. Those little things make the difference. I def book with this company again. Other than that, to get to the actual meeting point was kind of tricky at the beginning since theres a 16 number on the main road that is not the company, so just check in advance.

Wonderful private acropolis and agora walking tour with Maria. She was very helpful and attentive with my mother who had some challenges on the steep steps. The only thing that could be improved is the timing, to start tour even earlier or spend less time on the acropolis slope before going to the top so it wouldnt be so packed

We had so much fun with Annabella. So many different foods and loved that all were places frequented by locals. She pointed out many interesting places and we learned much about the culture. We felt so special at every local- she knew everyone and is obviously well respected and liked. Highly recommend!

Departed on time 8.45am to a drive out of Athens along to visit the 1st stop Corinth Canal. Our excellent tour guide Alexia advised that we have a drink and use the bathroom before making our way by foot to the short distance of the canal. So glad she advised to use the bathroom as it was beginning to get really busy
Having approximately 30 minutes at the canal to take pics and videos we then headed to the archaeology site of Ancient Corinth. Myself and my friend didn't do this as we have seen before. We went to have breakfast at one of the many little tavernas that are around the souvenir shops. After 1 hour 30 mins we set off for the beautiful Nafpoli which was approximately 45 minutes drive. We feel as though the trip would be far much better if more time was allowed in Nafpoli as 1 and a half hours is no where near long enough we was really disappointed in this. May I say that the tour guide Alexia was excellent and her knowledge about the places we visited was endless she was so interesting and made our trip. Credit to the company Alexia we couldn't of asked for anyone better

We had a last minute change to our schedule and booked with Athens Walks by email 2 days before. We could not have been happier with the way they handled the booking or with our tour guide and experience. We did a private early morning walking tour of the Acropolis and Agora for 7 people. Highly recommend using private tours as you get much better attention and information. They did not disappoint.

We were fortunate to have the amazing Anabella as our guide for this tour. She was knowledgeable. Informative and patient. It was obvious that she maintains great relationships at many of the places where we sampled the food. Come hungry and pace yourself....good amount of food especially towards the end.
