Guide was very pleasant but selection of food was poor. Too much emphasis on sweet candies made primarily from sugar and water. A few pies but they were dry and had been carried around by the guide until we sat down for coffee. No other samples of Greek food, of which there are many wonderful dishes. Quite disappointing!

We loved every minute of the tour. Our guide made this such a fun and welcoming experience and we had a chance to sample a range of foods from places we wouldn't have known about or discovered on our own. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour to others.

I did the street tour on my second day in Thessaloniki. Constantina was brilliant!! She was so friendly and easy to talk. The tour was the best way to explore all the local produce in town! Strongly recommend to skip breakfast!

Very interesting guide, Marila. Not too strenuous walking-wise. Plenty of food, was stuffed afterwards! Would recommend.

This 2-hour walking tour is a really great way to see the 'real' Thessaloniki where the locals shop and taste local food in shops, cafes and markets. Loved the organic market and medical herbs part. Maria, our guide, was very knowledgeable and friendly and willing to answer questions. Definitely advisable to come hungry! Highly recommended.

The food tastings were great especially at the Greek coffee stop cafe. Maria, the guide, was excellent.

Konstantina was amazing. So knowledgeable about the city and great to find all the secret cafe’s, markets and stops to hang out as the locals do. Cannot recommend her more highly. Neil (Cotswolds)

Very easy going and interesting tour with A LOT of food to try and eat, so I would not recommend eating before the tour. If you are a foodie - it’s a mist. Even if you are not a foodie - I still recommend this tour.

A great 2 hour tour of the street markets with a focus on local food and drink. The guide (Marilia) was incredibly knowledgeable about food, drink, the markets and Thessaloniki in general. The tour was excellent with plenty of opportunities to tuck into good-sized portions of local street food. Resist the opportunity to have breakfast beforehand, there's a lot of food to try and you will not leave hungry.

Wow what a great tour! Constentina “Tina” was an amazing tour guide! We got to sample Greek coffee, olives, Greek dips, Greek bagels, Greek liquor just to name a few. We saw the markets the locals shopped at. Highly recommend!
