Itinerary
Enjoy a 3-hour Athenian Tasting Tour under the soft half-light from the glowing sky whilst experiencing the nostalgia of old Athens.
Setting off from the historic district beneath the magnificent Acropolis, you will take a leisurely stroll through the narrow streets of Plaka and Anafiotika, the oldest parts of the city. Here you will pass small cafes, traditional tavernas and family-run bakeries where you will sample some of the most popular Greek delicacies.
Your first tasting will be the famous authentic creamy Greek yoghurt, before moving on to sample a wide selection of natural olive oils, cheeses, and cured meats. Also during this appetising tasting tour, you will have the opportunity to savour a strong brew of Greek coffee or, if you prefer, a chilled glass of homemade lemonade.
Try a Koulouri (sesame seed bagel) and Bougatsa (sweet/savoury pastry), freshly baked and usually eaten in the mornings, before your guide introduces you to a Greek ‘meze’ platter, a variety of small appetisers washed down with a shot of Raki (also known as Tsipouro), traditionally a symbol of friendship and hospitality.
Following a stop for delicious ice cream, you will finish off this pleasant evening at one of the best rooftop bars overlooking the neighbourhood. Here you can relax as you enjoy a shot of one of Greece’s traditional spirits, whilst taking in breathtaking views of the Acropolis.
