Athens Shore Excursion: Small-Group Food Tour
Overview
During your time in port in Athens, wander through its historic streets while indulging in traditional Greek cuisine. This food walking tour allows you to savor a wide variety of local delicacies, ranging from the mouthwatering syrupy 'loukoumades' to traditional 'bougatsa'. Browse through mom-and-pop specialty shops selling local wine, olive oil, cheese or olives, and sample what’s behind the glass counters at family-run delicatessens. The aromas of fresh, out-of-the-oven savory pies, the tempting displays of Greek pastries and sips of Greece’s strong and tasteful spirits round out the food tour. Numbers are limited to 16 people on this small-group shore excursion, ensuring you'll receive personalized attention from your guide. PLEASE NOTE: For Sunday tours, we do not visit the Central Market as it is not open.
