ABOUT THEEXPERIENCE

Join us for a walk through the heart of Athens, Greece’s capital and find out why food is the best way to understand its culture. Bring along your appetite and discover Greece’s rich culinary heritage beyond ‘souvlaki’ and ‘moussaka’.
During our 3,5 - hour food walk you will sense the buzzing vibe, colours and flavours of the central meat and fish market - in business nonstop for almost 150 years. Get introduced to the essence of the Greek diet, with a history of 4,000 years around the Mediterranean, well know for its high nutritional value and health benefits.
Along the way, you will get the chance to meet warm-hearted people behind family run eateries and deli stores, hear their stories and learn secret recipes of long tradition. You will be delighted to share a plethora of local delicacies, among others top quality extra virgin olive oil and olives, a wide selection of cheeses and cold cuts, an array of small plates honouring Greek cuisine, freshly baked pies and pastries, heavenly desserts such as the famous baklava and Greek yoghurt sprinkled with honey and nuts!
