    NOT for vegetarians specifically. Just another omnivore tour.

    Chose this as it was specifically called vegetarian food tour. Ended up being reg tour and just just told vegetarians to not eat the meat dishes. Very basic same old dishes that anyone coming to Greece would have tried already. I expected more interesting dishes that I might not have heard of but specifically vegetarian. If I knew it was omnivore tour with omissions, I would have booked elsewhere. Paid the same money as others but couldn’t eat a lot. I think we could have gone to any restaurant and gotten same if not better fare. This wasn’t for foodies. More for someone who thinks feta is exotic. At $100 plus tip - not worth it. Spend $100 at a couple local places and taste better and more variety. No value added really.

    Ate our way through Athens

    We booked this tour as a “vegetarian food tour” and it was actually a mixed tour that included meat. This is the reason I did not rate as 5 stars as that should have been better explained in tour descriptions. Having said that it was a great tour and our guide was very knowledgeable. We got to sample many yummy things at 8 different stops.

    Great tour of Athens (for food and getting to know the city).

    Great food tour. Highly recommend. The places were fun and unique - not places I would have found on my own. Our tour guide was Lef - he was terrific and really made the tour. Vegetarian options were really fulsome.

    Vegetarian Walking Food Tour

    The Vegetarian food Walking Tour was absolutely 100%. Our guide,Lef was so knowledgeable about the stops around Athens and the types of food . We tried a Greek style Coffee shop, pastry’s, Cheese and Yoghurt and finished it with a Greek Meze. Highly recommend and like I say, Lef was a great guide

    The Vegetarian food tasting tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does The Vegetarian food tasting tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at €68 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 The Vegetarian 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 The Vegetarian food tasting tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 9 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 The Vegetarian 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 The Vegetarian 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 The Vegetarian food tasting tour?

    +

    Around 3 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 The Vegetarian 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 Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. 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.

    What is included in The Vegetarian food tasting tour?

    +

    Included: Freshly baked breakfast. Not included: Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for The Vegetarian food tasting tour?

    +

    Monastiraki metro station in front of the church (Blue and green line) at 10:00AM Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is The Vegetarian food tasting tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for The Vegetarian food tasting tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is The Vegetarian food tasting tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; Specialized infant seats are available; and Transportation options are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to The Vegetarian food tasting tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about The Vegetarian food tasting tour?

    +

    Across 9 reviews averaging 4.7 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, the guide, knowledge and storytelling. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers.
