Description

Experience a 3-hour Athenian Tasting Tour while reminiscing about old Athens in the lovely half- light of the shimmering sky. Starting from the historic district beneath the great Acropolis, you will enjoy a leisurely stroll through the city's oldest neighbourhoods, Plaka and Anafiotika. Small cafes, and family-run bakeries line the streets, where you may enjoy some of Greece's most popular culinary delights. The famous creamy Greek yoghurt will be your first tasting, followed by a variety of natural olive oils, cheeses, and cured meats. You will also have the option to sample a strong brew of Greek coffee or, if you prefer, a cold drink of handmade lemonade during this delectable tasting tour. Before your guide introduces you to a Greek variety of small appetisers washed down with a shot of Raki (also known as Tsipouro), try a tasty Koulouri (bagel) and Bougatsa (sweet/savoury pastry), both freshly baked and typically eaten as a breakfast snack. You shouldn’t leave Athens without having experienced the culture of Greek mezze; little plates of delicious home cooked treasures, all washed down with a shot of Raki. Finally, you’ll enjoy Loukoumades, the ancient Greek delight since 776 B.C, still one of the most popular deserts of Greece, traditionally topped with honey and cinnamon!
