Food in Greece is great, and traveling is catered for by a variety of means, bus, train, and vehicle rental, if you are with an older person.
I met a few younger students backpacking through europe when I was in Athens, and they all seemed to be getting on great, and had no problems getting about!
You can catch ferries at Piraeus, and have the bonus of being in walking distance of the sights that the harbour has in plenty! Some of the best food is available around Piraeus, but there is also the industrial side to it, so it can be a bit hectic there!
I love Athens, aan would suggest you travel in a loop to thermopolae, then across to Delphi, then acroos the new bridge, down to Ollympia, then to Sparta. Then across to Argos, Myceanae, Corinth and back to Athens....
The list of sights to see on this route are too many to mention.......
