What To Expect
On this Athens food and wine tour, you will be introduced to the Greek cuisine and local wines and our culinary traditions that date back to ancient times and have influenced not only the European cuisine but also many others!
Don’t expect to visit highly ranked shops but less known traditional vendors and we will demonstrate why the Greek cuisine is the most delicious in the world.
Taste the best authentic local gastronomy including feta, olives, olive oil, local tapas, and 3 different wines and spirits like ouzo, on a food tour that is more than enough to skip lunch!
- Learn about Athens’ culinary culture and discover the traditional tastes and fresh flavours of the city.
- Explore the Central Market and captivate your senses by sampling different tastes and flavors.
- Enjoy a “meze” platter (local tapas) in a local deli and chat with the owner about his specialties.
- Sip local wines at a rooftop bar with amazing views over Athens.
