Best Thessaloniki Experience! - We didn’t have many expectations going into Thessaloniki, but walked away fully convinced that it was the most fun we have had on our trip. Tonia, the guide, was the best tour guide we’ve had. She was very friendly, thoughtful, and made us feel like we were apart of her city (shoutout to George). The food was outstanding and cooked for us from the produce Tonia picked out at the market. Awesome experience!!

Thessaloniki's best food tour!!! - Tonia was an incredible host and was full of information and advice on the food scene of Thessaloniki. From the chocolates and Trigona (amazing) to the olive oil tastings, spice adventure, olives by the kilo!, and so much more. Finalized by an amazing lunch at a special location that lasted a couple of hours with food that we purchased along the way. Don't miss this opportunity to explore the culinary treats of Thessaloniki with a special guide, two thumbs up for Tonia!!!

A delicious taste of Thessaloniki. - What a great way to spend an afternoon in Thessaloniki. Our guide was very friendly and informative and the food was all fantastic. We were even able to pick things out at a local market and have them prepared a few hours later!

Eat as the Thessalonians! Very well and in style. - An exceptional tour spending the day eating and chilling through the markets and eateries of Thessaloniki with a local foodie guide. Tonia is a marvellous host, contacted us beforehand, made sure we knew where to meet and provided water for the day's tour. The Tour took us through the markets, some selected shops and then to a secret location for a late lunch. All the food, olive oil and specialities tasted were excellent and we retraced much of the locations and specialities over the following days of our stay in Thessaloniki. Many thanks to Tonia for this excellent tour, introducing us to new foods and wines and leaving us with a wonderful memory and teaching on how to enjoy foor Thessalonian style.

A Must- Do Tour into the Heart of Thessaloniki!! - If there was a 10 star rating, Tonia and her company certainly deserve it!! This tour was absolutely GREAT!!! We loved every minute of our customized tour. Tonia instantly became family as she passionately shared delicious foods that make your mouth water. We walked through various areas and sampled foods the locals enjoy--foods that aren't found just anywhere. She was sensitive to our needs and wants as she took us on our stress-free journey. This tour was life-changing in the things that were shared and the experiences we had. Tonia definitely holds a warm place in our hearts! ❣️
