Athens Food Tour With Wine Tasting

Your culinary journey begins with a traditional Greek breakfast of koulóuria (sesame bread rings) in a century-old café. For dessert, head to a tiny pastry shop to taste loukoumades (Greek donuts) and custard-filled filo squares. Later, sample local pies and cheeses at authentic Greek bakeries and cheese stores.

Follow your foodie guide through the meat and fish market, said to be the living monuments of the city. Relish some home-grown and roasted coffee, and tour specialty shops to buy fresh fruit, olives, cheese, ham, and other deli produce. You can even sip on some local wine, or check out organic produce olive oil and honey, seven-year-old aromatized vinegar, and the iconic Greek yogurt that is produced in family farms.

Continue your exploration and enter Evripidou Street, scented by herbs. Go souvenir shopping and buy organic olive oils from a tiny shop. End your day by visiting the deli stores of the historic city center.
