We did the Heraklion food tour and it was perfect. A lot of different things to try out from sweet pastry to salty fresh fish and real Cretan maindishes. The tour guide was super nice and friendly down to earth which made it the perfect food experience in Iraklion! One pro tip! Make sure you haven't eaten before starting the tour, there is so much to munch!

We went on the tour with Athena. It was a great tour to taste custom cretan dishes. Do not eat breakfast! We ate non stop for 3 hours. It was wonderful to visit locally owned shops with quality products. If you are looking for a personalized tour with great food, this is the one. Athena was great, felt like a friend walking you around the city.
