My daughter lives in Greece, so we don't do the 'typical' tourist trap things. We opt to go to other areas for a few nights to learn about the different areas. Kalamata was an easy choice to learn more about olives, and this tour went beyond that! Maria is an exceptional, warm, proud local who is has formed an alliance with vendors. She takes you to their shops to teach about local offerings--and taste! The tastings were all wonderful, even with a 4 year old in tow for 4 hours. Maria was awesome with our family of 5, and treated us like we were her family. She fell in love with my granddaughter, and kept her attention. We also got goodie bags at the final stop--family style lunch and wine--and there was something special for the little one. That toy entertained her for the long drive back home. Probably one of the best tours we've ever done, all over the world. Learn from the friendly locals and support their economy :)
We had such a lovely time on this food tour of Kalamata. Maria was a fantastic guide - warm, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable, and it was clear throughout the tour how passionate she is about Greek food, culture and her home country. We got to try a great variety of delicious local foods, many of which we probably wouldn’t have discovered on our own, while also learning about the history and character of Kalamata as we explored the city. Maria brought everything to life with her stories and enthusiasm. My boyfriend and I both thoroughly enjoyed the experience and came away feeling like we had experienced a much more authentic side of Kalamata. We’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city - especially if you love good food and want to learn more about Greece from someone who genuinely loves sharing it.
Maria is an incredible woman and has put together a lovely tour filled with knowledge of Greece and Kalamata’s history and culture. Throughout the tour, you get to try many delicious Greek foods from small, local businesses and learn about olive oil from an expert. As a solo, female traveler, I definitely recommend Mama’s Flavors!
A fantastic tour. We sampled several greek foods we wouldn't have otherwise, learned a lot about olive oil in a enjoyable tasting and was shown around the town. Maria our guide was absolutely fantastic
Our food tour with Mamas Flavours was one of the highlights of our entire trip to the Peloponnese. Maria Monastirioti is so knowledgeable, engaging and gracious, and she taught us a great deal not only about the Greek foods that we had a chance to taste, but also about the sights around Kalamata that we saw during our walking tour. She readily customized our experience to fit our time constraints on the day of our tour, and also helped us tour a church I was interested in seeing when we were nearby. We happened to schedule this tour in advance of our arrival in Greece and it was actually our last day there. My biggest wish after was that I had actually toured with Maria the first day we were in Greece, because we would have been able to appreciate and seek out culinary experiences with greater knowledge. I did buy several products, but there is absolutely no pressure at all to purchase anything - Maria made that very clear at each stop. We were a party of four adults, two in our 50s and two in their 20s and everyone agrees that touring with Maria was one of the most memorable things about our trip. Highly recommended!
Simply amazing. The guide is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. And the things she will show you are interesting. A good day you dont want to miss. Thank you Maria!
The tour is the best way to explore Kalamata, we had so much fun together, can only recommend it to everyone traveling in that area!!
From start to finish Maria has been amazing. From my initial enquiry, to the tour itself. She is so organised, prepared and knowledgeable, the entire process has been faultless, and the tour far exceeded any expectations we had. Maria’s local knowledge and relationship with the producers she collaborates with to produce the tour is so impressive. We came away with not only an understanding and love of the local food, oils and wines, but also the people and the place itself. Maria’s love of history is so evident throughout the day, and it was a privilege to be in the company of someone like her. We were never rushed, and in parts I know she gave us much more in-depth information, as she gauged our enthusiasm on certain subjects. The food, the people and Kalamata itself are stunning, and we can’t thank Maria enough for giving us the highlight of our trip to The Peloponnese. I’d recommend Maria and Mamas Flavours to anyone visiting the Peloponnese
