Description
Your evening begins at Mitropoleos Street 6–8, right in front of Arethousa Hotel, just a minute’s walk away from Syntagma Square and its easy metro, taxi, and bus connections. From there, your Athenian guide will welcome you and lead you on a relaxed night walk through Athens. The first highlight is the Greek Parliament, where you’ll admire the impressive architecture and watch the ceremonial Presidential Guards. Continuing your walk, you’ll pass by the iconic Temple of Olympian Zeus and Hadrian’s Gate, two remarkable landmarks that reflect the grandeur of ancient Athens and its Roman influence. You’ll then continue into the historic Plaka district, a charming neighborhood at the foot of the Acropolis, with its narrow alleys, neoclassical houses, and romantic atmosphere. As you stroll for about 1 hour, your local guide will share stories that blend history, culture, and local life.
After the walk, you’ll step into a cozy wine bar located right next to the meeting point for a 1-hour-and-30-minute wine tasting. Here, your sommelier will introduce you to 4 premium Greek wines, guiding you through tasting techniques, grape varieties, and the unique ancient winemaking regions of Greece. Each wine is perfectly paired with a platter of artisanal Greek cheeses and cured meats, making this a complete sensory experience. The activity concludes at the wine bar, just steps away from where you started.
