Itinerary
Taste the exquisite quality of the local olives, cheeses, hams, and the famous Greek yogurt at its best directly at a producer's shop (a fair trade experience). Here, you will have the opportunity to purchase authentic local products at fair prices.
Here you will taste the famous sweet pie called Bougatsa and see how it is made.
We will visit a beautiful square in the city and learn about its important history by visiting some of the nearby landmarks. Here you will have the opportunity to savor a traditionally brewed Greek coffee.
You will admire this unique monument that is depicting the long and turbulent history of the city.
Some trees in Greece bare a history only a few know. Your guide will introduce you to a historic fact that took place right on (yes, on) that tree.
Taste some traditional delicacies or sweets at this excellent quality bakery.
Under the roads you are walking on, there once was a mighty ancient city. Let's have a glimpse of it and visualize antiquity.
This old port built by the Venetians is the highlight of the city. Let's enjoy a walk along the dock and be introduced to its impressive landmarks.
You cannot possibly conclude a food tour anywhere in Greece without tasting a Souvlaki. Here we will enjoy Souvlaki at its best (vegetarian or vegan options available). You will also taste the local spirit (raki).
At the end of your food tasting tour, you will have the option of a 45min wine tasting experience (not in standard price included, must be added to the food tour booking as an extra service).
