Description

Your gastronomic walk starts with a traditional coffee in a kafeneio (Greek café) where you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the Acropolis and learn interesting facts about the coffee culture in Greece. Next, try a favorite national snack, the Greek sesame bread ring koulouri. Greece is famous for its traditional pies and once you try the cheese-filled pie tyropita, you will understand why it is one of Greece's favorite on-the-go snacks. For those with a sweet tooth, the next snack of the tour is the all-time classic Greek dessert loukoumades (deep-fried dough soaked in sugar syrup) in one of the most iconic eateries operating in Athens since 1923. Along the way, you'll have the opportunity to savor the ambassador of the Greek breakfast worldwide: the ever-popular Greek yogurt. Try it with honey during a tasting workshop for a classic combination. Your gastronomic experience will also take you to the bustling Varvakios Central Market for the last stop of the tour.
