I could not have asked for a better experience than the "Get a Taste of Athens" tour with Pascal. Not only did I taste an incredible variety of foods, but I also learned much about the city, the culture, and the history of Athens. Getting to spend an entire morning with someone as knowledgeable as Pascal is a once-in-a-lifetime treat. I left with a full belly and tons of great photos to share with friends and family. My only regret is that I didn't book the tour sooner! He gave us so many great tips for ordering coffee, where to have dinner, and neighborhoods to explore. It would have made my Athens experience so much richer to have done the tour at the beginning of my trip rather than at the end. Don't miss this tour!

This gastronomic adventure starts with a traditional Greek coffee and a delicacy. Enjoy the city’s early-morning vibe and a view to the Acropolis as you take your first sip. Hear the story of one of the oldest coffee shops in Athens, and find out everything you need to know about Greek coffee.

We’re sure you’ve heard a lot about our morning snacks, but this one is definitely a newcomer to Greek gastronomy. It’s the country’s most beloved healthy snack, this time with a special twist!

Continue exploring the most exciting flavours of Greece in a culinary workshop, tasting and learning more about some of the country’s most delicious products.

Visit the local food market and mingle with the locals. Observe, smell, and touch the highest-quality ingredients the city has to offer.

If you think you’ve experienced enough, wait until you stroll along the spice street, offering the very best herbs collected from all over the Greek peninsula.

Taste typical Greek tapas (mezes) and sip wine or ouzo at a place straight out of a black-and-white film from the ‘60s. This is as authentic as it gets!
