It is here that the most famous ancient myths come to life, stories about Gods and Heroes, such as almighty Zeus, Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and protector of Athens, Poseidon, the tempestuous sea God, , Dionysus, God of Wine and many more. But what’s even more intriguing is that you’ll also find out what truths hide behind these myths and why the Ancient Greeks created them.

Let your English-speaking guide immerse you in the ritual of Greek traditions, capturing the essence of local life, before savoring the iconic delights of souvlaki and an array of Greek specialties in quaint food boutiques. From baklava bakeries to bustling markets like Varvakios Market, where locals shop for fresh produce and seafood, each stop offers a unique taste of Athens' vibrant food scene.
Stroll through Athens' Spice Street to discover local spices and herbs, then treat yourself to a traditional bougatsa at a local pastry shop. The tour culminates in a feast of Greek meze at a charming taverna, where you'll savor a variety of Greek tapas, leaving with a full stomach and a deeper appreciation for the rich flavors of Greek cuisine.
