About this activity
Step in the authentic Greek flavors on our alternative food tour, away from the tourist sights. Starting at the Kallimarmaro Olympic Stadium, immerse to the hidden gem of Pagrati, a breath away from the city center but worlds apart in ambiance.
Our tour highlights the neighborhood's charm offering glimpses into every day local life rarely seen by tourists.
This journey showcases the best of Greek cuisine, from sipping on coffee at a cozy local café to savoring puff pastries with cheese and honey. Rich flavors of dried figs and pistachios at a quaint nut shop and a visit at a neighborhood bakery for spanakopita
Next, we'll gather at a charming taverna in a local square and dine family-style, inspired by Greek grandmothers. Classics like moussaka, stuffed peppers, and zucchini balls, accompanied by feta cheese dips and meatballs in lemon broth.
As the evening unfolds, we'll venture to an edgy bar for sweet digestive liqueurs. Finally desserts: Baklava and other traditional sweets.
