- Chrystsouk0 contributionsNice and tasty experienceMy family and I had the pleasure of encountering Tasos and Tina upon our arrival to the island. They are knowledgeable and passionate about Kefalonian cuisine, and will take you to hidden gems that you might not discover on your own. You'll get to taste the freshest seafood, sample the island's famous meat pies, and indulge in local cheeses and wine.Written 2 May 2023

We decided to do this tour on our last night in Kefalonia in June. Booked through AirBnB. After conquering the maze of streets of Argostoli, we met with our tour guides Anastasios and his wife Tina for the Argostoli City Food & History Tour.
We started out visiting a supermarket where we tried cheeses on a charcuterie board. We learned that you will enjoy soft cheeses even more if you drizzle honey on it! We cruised on foot through the city and tried meat pies, wine, nuts, cod pie, gelato, and confections. We learned all about historic city buildings and the stories behind them. Anastasios and Tina were energetic about their city and for the opportunity for us to try a variety of Greek (and other nationality’s) specialty food. The tour was paced just right, no one was rushed, and our group was a lot of fun. I especially liked chilling on the waterfront with my dinner.
We recommend this tour for anyone ready to get to know the background and options in the area. Bring an empty belly!

Tasos and his wife, who joined us towards the end of the tour, are clearly both totally dedicated to providing a unique and enjoyable experience, and love both Argostoli and Kefalonia, it's culture, history and food! A great way to find out more about all these things, in our case with two other couples, also from the UK.
Exceptional value for money too, make sure you're hungry when you start the tour and have a bottle of water too.
Highly recommended.

Excellent Food Tour with Tina & Thassos.
The young couple are so interesting and friendly, very good English speakers and very well educated on the history of the area. They are an inspiration to the locals, sharing some of the food secrets with us tourists and ensuring that you visit the proper family food producers. I was never a rose fan until i went on this tour and tasted the local rose. Really lovely food. We really enjoyed the tour, they ran it even though it was just the hubby and I, now that's dedication. I would advise anyone visiting the island to do this tour, you will not be disappointed.

I would highly recommend this tour! Thassos and Tina were very informative and told us all about the various (and delicious!), food and drink that was included in the tour. They also explained the local traditions and origins associated with each item and also shared lots history about Argostoli and Kefalonia. Myself and my sister have been coming to the island for 20 years and we still learned lots of things. I would strongly recommend this tour even if you've also visited many times and think you know everything that Argostoli / Kefalonia has to offer.

I cannot recommend the Kefalonia food tour enough. A lovely evening stroll around Argostoli stopping off to enjoy delicious local food and wine, all while Tasos gives you an incredible insight into the local history.
Fantastic experience with excellent hosts Tasos and Tina

Great tour with Tasos. The food was traditional Kefalonion with great variety and so much of it. Tasos certainly knew his stuff and gave us some very interesting info on the history of the island. Tasos was a great guide, very friendly and polite. Would highly recommend.

Unfortunately on the day of our food tour it was very windy, however we still managed to enjoy it.
The tour was very informative both on the food and history of Kefalonia.
We started off trying four different cheeses, and seeing the market, which was closed as it was evening.
The cheeses were lovely, and the tomatoes with them.
We walked around Argostoli, were shown the sights and told about their history.
We tried some beautiful wines, and ended the evening with some gelato.
It was a good evening despite the weather, and Tasos our guide was very pleasant and knowledgeable.

We really enjoyed this food tour around Argostoli, led by Tassos. We tried local dishes including different Kefalonian cheeses & honey, salt cod and garlic sauce, traditional Kefalonian meat pie, 4 types of local wine, local sweets and ice cream. Tassos knows all about the local food and history, it was a relaxed and very enjoyable evening he even brought along tomatoes and oregano from his own grandmother’s garden.
