About this activity

As day turns to night, Athens slows down and comes alive around the table. On this afternoon-into-evening tour, we’ll experience the historic Plaka at its most atmospheric, wandering beneath the Acropolis as locals gather for food, wine and conversation.

Starting near Syntagma Square, we’ll make our way through Anafiotika and the Plaka’s charming backstreets, stopping for thick Greek yogurt with honey, superb pastries and an olive oil tasting featuring artisanal products from across Greece.

As evening settles in, we’ll visit a pioneering wine bar to taste bottles from small Greek producers before sitting down for regional specialties such as grilled Mastello cheese, stuffed grape leaves and Cretan tomato and bread salad. We’ll finish with inventive gelato flavored with Greek ingredients like mastiha, Kalamata figs and sweet wine from Samos — just as the Athenian night is getting started.
