Overview
Explore the food markets of Athens on a four-hour walking tour and taste some of the most famous local delicacies. Visit stores, where you can experience the quality of the local agriculture production such as organic olive oil made cold pressed, Greek yogurt, five-year-aged vinegars, thyme honey and jams made from local organic fruits.
Start with a traditional Greek breakfast of koulóuria (sesame bread rings), then make your way to a tiny shop to sample loukoumades (Greek donuts) and custard-filled filo squares along with your local guide, who will explain you everything about these delicacies. Your next stop will be even tastier! Enjoy local pies and cheeses at authentic Greek bakeries and cheese stores.
Next, wander through the meat and fish market, the living monument markets of the city. Walk in a century old coffee roastery, where you will drink high quality coffee and visit specialty shops to purchase fresh fruit, olives, cheese, ham, and other deli produce. Prepare to discover Evripidou Street, scented by herbs, and try organic olive oils at a small shop. Then end your culinary exploration at the deli stores of the historic city center, where your guide will make you some small gifts to take back home.
