Fun tour - The description of the tour was very misleading on the Viator app. We were expecting a tour of some bars and getting to taste some cocktails. With that said, our tour guide was very knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, and energetic! He did an amazing job with our tour!

Our guide Dimitris was... - Our guide Dimitris was very friendly and knowledgeable. We went to a locals area and tried 3 different appetizers and drinks typical to Greece. I highly recommend this tour as it’s different from other tours.

Amazing tour!!! - Dimitri was a wonderful tour guide. I truly enjoyed him showing us a less touristy side of Athens. The drinks and food were simply amazing. Dimitri provides a wealth of information regarding highlights of Athens and even offers suggestions of restaurants or bars to visit. Thanks Dimitri for making our first night in Athens incredibly memorable!!!

Not what we expected - Guide was super nice and friendly but we didn’t get the tour we thought we signed up for. We thought we were getting advice on local drink specialties, but the guide simply asked US where we wanted to go and what we wanted to drink. We didn’t realize until late in the tour that he was just showing us nice locations and leaving the drink/food selection up to us. On prior tours in other countries the guides had complete plans and arrangements at establishments for the food and drink emphasizing local specialties.

Friendly tour guide and worthwhile tour despite misunderstanding - Our tour guide was knowledgeable and provided a great historical overview of Greece. We showed up to the wrong meeting location and he graciously found us and was flexible in the starting time and starting point. We appreciated his graciousness and calm demeanor. Although we did not receive the 3 bites and 3 drinks that were included in the guided tour, we still would recommend this opportunity to other travelers. Just make sure to confirm which tour you desire as the tour guide usually conducts multiple different tours. The tour has a set duration listed. Once we reached the 2 1/2 hour mark in the tour we expected the tour to be over. However, the tour guide Makram was ready to keep the tour going into the night. This could be great if you have extra time, but we were on a pretty tight schedule. Makram was disappointed we had to leave after time expired. This tour is a great way to navigate through the most populated areas in Athens. The tour will help familiarize yourself with the area quickly. You'll stop at some places you may otherwise pass right by without a tour guide.

We enjoyed it. - We enjoyed our time. It was an appetizer and a drink at 3 different spots. We were lucky enough to have a great bed and breakfast that recommended even better local restuarants and bars that we liked even better. But if we weren’t this lucky, then this tour would have been essential.

Very Lame and Disappointing - Don't waste your money. - Not a good experience at all. Tour guide was late, looked like she did not shower or brush her hair, and did not really guide anything. She barely had anything planned for the evening. The description of the tour was supposed to include 3 drinks and 3 snacks and 3 different places. We only got 2 drinks, one snack, and only went to 2 bars. Not what I was expecting for $100/person. I feel like I got ripped off and it was a very disappointing experience. Never taking a WithLocals tour again.

Awful - Guide didnt even show up. We waited at the meeting point for 40 minutes. Texted and called the guide to no avail. Absolutely unacceptable. They obviously refunded us the fees but what a massive disappointment.

Don't Waste Time with this Nonsense. - Booked this tour which was described as visiting 4 different venues to experience nightlife in Athens. What we received was a tour guide who brought us to one tired, boring venue where our party of three sat for over an hour trying to make small talk with our guide and being utterly bored. Finally, after about 1 hour and 15 minutes I stated that I did not feel well in order to leave what was an utter waste of time. When we complained to the company they said the tour guide (Elina I believe was her name) was waiting for us to finish our drinks before moving to another location. If this was the case (a) why didn't she tell us and (b) we would have been there forever because I was served a gallon of swill (white white) which I could not even drink. And, btw Elina was sharing our food directly without putting it on a separate plate - not SAFE during times of COVID. Athens is so amazing, don't waste time with this nonsense!
