The Program
Day 1 Good Morning in Athens
Wake up in the capital city and begin your day at one of the Greek-Breakfast awarded hotels, where you can indulge in a variety of dishes representing different regions of Greece. In the morning, explore the local market located in the heart of Athens. Take your time to visit specialty shops and sample regional products from all corners of the country.
After your visit to the National Museum, treat yourself to a memorable dining experience at a rooftop restaurant with a breathtaking view. Delight in the exquisite flavors of fine Greek cuisine while enjoying the magnificent backdrop of the Acropolis. To enhance the ambiance, live music often accompanies your dining experience.
Day 2 Thessaloniki
The gastronomic scene of Thessaloniki, the co-capital of Greece, is a haven for traditional Greek cuisine. You can experience it in the cozy ambiance of traditional taverns, ouzerias offering delightful mezedakia (small plates), and koutukias. The atmosphere of these establishments adds to their charm, especially when you order a variety of meze dishes "for the waist" and share them with your company. Many taverns, koutukias, and ouzerias have preserved their traditional character, featuring wooden or metal tables and chairs arranged café-style on the sidewalks, complemented by vintage decor reminiscent of old cafes.
Thessaloniki also boasts numerous traditional taverns with modern influences. Regardless of the choice, one thing remains consistent: the excellent quality of Greek cuisine and the handmade dishes prepared with the finest ingredients. These establishments offer a warm, family-friendly atmosphere that invites relaxation and enjoyment.
Day 3 Chalkidiki
Explore the captivating region of Chalkidiki, which encompasses the Kassandra, Sithonia, and Athos peninsulas. This three-fingered region is home to a delightful array of beachside tavernas and authentic village eateries that offer traditional Greek cuisine. Situated near the Turkish border, Chalkidiki's culinary scene has been influenced by flavors from Anatolia and the bountiful Aegean Sea, providing an exciting fusion of tastes.
Immerse yourself in the diverse region and uncover the culinary treasures influenced by various cultures. Don't miss the opportunity to visit one of the largest wineries in Chalkidiki, where you can learn about the production of wine and schnapps. Indulge in a visit to a picturesque vineyard, where you can discover the agricultural aspects of grape cultivation.
Savor a delectable selection of dishes at a traditional beachfront taverna and engage in lively discussions with the owners, unraveling the secrets behind their recipes and cooking techniques.
Day 4 On the way back to Athens
On your return journey from the co-capital of Thessaloniki, a visit to the enchanting island of Evia is highly recommended.
Evia offers a rich tapestry of culture, history, and natural beauty. However, one particular city stands out—Chalkida—known for its fascinating natural phenomenon. Embark on a culinary voyage of discovery as you uncover the endless delights that await.
During your visit, we provide an opportunity for local wine producers to showcase their finest wines. Additionally, at the cheese dairy, you'll learn about the intricate process of crafting feta cheese and understand why only specific cheeses are allowed to bear the name "feta."
Southern Evia boasts three distinct dishes influenced by Arvanite cuisine: tiropitari, kourkoumpinia, and vouloto lamb. It would be remiss to leave the island without savoring these culinary delights before returning to Athens.
