Amazing way to See and Taste Chania! - My favorite day in Greece! Our guide Ero was amazing! She was a lovely person as well as a very attentive and informed guide around Chania. She stayed with us for over four hours, and we tried so many delicious dishes, as well as saw historical sites and heard about the culture of the city. In addition to several restaurants, we went to some grocery and olive oil shops. Highly recommend!

Highly Recommend! - Goldy was amazing! She was very personable and provided a wealth of knowledge about Crete's history during our tour. We found so many hidden places we would have passed over if not for her. We had so much fun with her and would highly recommend this experience!!

Best Food and history tour combined - Great day, so much food, it’s kept coming! Adonis was knowledgable and kept the history coming as well as covering the food. I’m a history geek so appreciated this.

Worth every minute. - What an amazing experience. Not only was the food incredible but Goldie’s archeological and Greek mythology stories were entertaining as well. Goldie was extremely knowledgable and she kept us just ahead of the big groups so we never had to wait. She even gave us recommendations for restaurants, not that we will need it tonight. So much food, definitely don’t eat breakfast.

Experience Crete Up Close! - We had a lovely tour with Antonis who shared with my daughter and I, Chania's local street food scene, history of Crete, and tips on how to spend the rest of our vacation in Crete. The many food stops we made were full of delicious dishes from bougatsa, souvlaki to the chocolate cube. I don't think we would've discovered these spots on our own. On top of the food tour, his suggestions were incredibly helpful, from what to do if it rains, where to dine, where to shop. It's so personalized and flexible. He even knew where to find handmade local jewelry that wasn't available in Old Town's shops and made dinner reservations for us that night when no reservations were available. I highly recommend his tour because he's full of information and I suggest to be prepared with questions for him. He wants to make sure his clients have the best experience not just on the tour but also during their visit to Crete. It was one of the best days we had in Crete! Kudos to Antonis for making it possible!

Food and history combined! - Friends and I recently took this tour on our visit to Chania. Our guide was very informative and friendly. We got to try a lot of traditional foods from older establishments; some from the guide's childhood, which was very nice to get to see places that you normally would not. All of the food was excellent. The guide was very good at telling about the history of the region as well. Highly recommend!

Great food with knowledgeable guide - Adonis was a fantastic guide! Great variety of food - pretty much outside of what tourists would find on their own.

Well worth it, but don't have breakfast first. - A very nice introduction to. Hania and all kinds of local delicacies. The group was small and the “guide” very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. You will see a large part of old Chania and in the meantime you will taste all kinds of delicious things. Feel free to skip breakfast if you join this tour.
