Additional Information

Athens is a city full of magical contrast and strong culture and we would love to introduce you to this whilst we offer you traditional Greek breakfast foods.

We will start our journey right in the centre of non touristic Athens in the fascinating, alternative area of Athinas Street where you will be surrounded by the sounds, sights and smells of the local food markets. These include meat, fish, spices and fruits and vegetables.

Whilst you enjoy Greek yoghurt, Greek coffee, Koulouri, Spanakopita and more we will introduce you to the markets and the local traders who work there. You will learn about the culture of Greek coffee and visit the oldest coffee shop in Athens where they still make it the traditional way - do you know how that is?

We will also show you the best places to shop for spices, olives and other Greek delicacies at local prices.

Book our early tour and leave the rest of the day free to explore Athens and visit the tavernas we recommend to you during the tour!

Discover the hidden food spots of Athens - We were taken on this brilliant walk around the markets, food stalls, coffee shops etc and told about the food, culture etc and in the meantime got to taste the best food in the area. We ended in a local place were we would otherwise have never gone with amazing small dishes and the best yoghurt. We were shown where to get pita, olives, fresh feta. The young women showing us around had so much enthusiasm for her work and the food, we really loved it and would highly recommend touring with this organisation

Fantastic way to experience breakfast like an Athenian! - Arela was a fantastic host and you get so much value for this tour. If you’ve done the longer traditional food tour with Rachel and Michael I would still recommend this tour as you make different stops and Arela has her own personal style that is also very engaging!

A fun and informative morning with great guides! - My partner and I loved the food tour! We were able to try out a lot of the delicacies as well as learn about the history of the food and of Greece! Watching the Greek coffee being made in the traditional way was one of my highlights :) Rachel and Arela were fantastic guides and we’d highly recommend to book if you’re in the Athens area!
