    Delicious and fun experience

    My family and I enjoyed our food tour with Maria very much! She was great with the kids. It was a fun way to walk through Athens, exploring the food, street art and culture. We definitely got a taste of the city!

    This experience was worth...

    This experience was worth every penny! Our tour guide Lef was knowledgeable and personable and engaged really well with the kids (ages 9 and 7). It was a great way to see the city and experience the food. Great balance of walking and stops.

    Filippos was Great

    Filippos was excellent and so great with our kids! He took us to parts of the city we hadn’t seen yet and gave great history. We loved the food and it was very kid friendly. He even gave us recommendations for the rest of our stay in Athens. Great tour!

    Excellent child friendly tour

    We had a fantastic experience on the Food on Foot Athens food tour with Penny. From start to finish, she made us feel welcome and showed us parts of Athens that we would never have discovered on our own. Her local knowledge was incredible, and she brought the city to life with stories, history, and insights along the way. One of the highlights was trying so many delicious foods that we simply would not have known to order ourselves. Every stop felt authentic and carefully chosen, giving us a real taste of Athens beyond the usual tourist spots. We were travelling as a family with children, and it was wonderful to find a tour that was genuinely child-friendly. Penny was incredibly patient, engaging, and accommodating with the children throughout, making sure they felt included and interested at every stop. We are pescatarians, and Penny was excellent at checking that we were comfortable with the itinerary, including visiting the meat market. She made thoughtful adjustments where needed and ensured we could fully enjoy the experience while respecting our dietary preferences. If you’re visiting Athens and want to explore the city through its food, culture, and hidden corners, we highly recommend this tour. Penny was a fantastic guide, and it was one of the highlights of our trip.

    Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.

    How much does Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.

    Is Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 78 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour?

    +

    Around 27 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Athens Kids and Families Food Tasting Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Athens?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Athens?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Athens?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
