What you can expect

Set off on a 4-hours food adventure through the heart of Athens, where tradition and taste come together in a delicious journey from ancient times to today. This experience is designed for food lovers who want to explore the city’s authentic flavours, uncover the stories behind Greek cuisine, and taste award-winning delicacies.

Begin your morning like a true Athenian with a warm, sesame-covered koulouri (Greek bagel), a street-food staple enjoyed since Byzantine times. Sample a variety of traditional pitas (savoury pies), from crispy spinach-filled spanakopita to rich cheese-stuffed tiropita, made using recipes passed down through generations.

Visit a speciality shop that sources authentic, creamy Greek yoghurt from small farms. Learn why this superfood has been a part of the Greek diet for centuries and taste it with local honey and nuts. Sip Greece’s iconic anise-flavored spirit, ouzo, perfectly paired with traditional dishes called meze.

Indulge in two world-famous Greek desserts. Discover why Greeks take their coffee seriously as you taste traditional Greek coffee, slow-brewed in a briki over sand. Try Freddo Espresso and Freddo Cappuccino, a Greek invention that revolutionized summer coffee culture, and Frappé, the legendary iced coffee that Greeks perfected.

Join a unique journey into Greek beekeeping, where you'll taste exceptional honey, take part in the honeycomb cut, and uncover its rich history. From ancient Greek warriors surviving on honey to Aristotle’s fascination with bees, this golden nectar has been a symbol of strength and longevity for centuries.

Discover why Greek honey is among the finest in the world—pure, flavourful, and deeply rooted in tradition. Finally, savour the liquid gold of the Mediterranean, Cretan extra virgin olive oil, which is renowned for its superior quality, rich flavour, and health benefits.
