Detailed description

Wine tasting in Athens - Tour for connoisseurs through the Greek capital

If you appreciate pleasure and can enjoy good wines and distilled specialties, then this wine tour in Athens is made for you. On this evening you will be able to taste some of the best Greek wines and learn more about the traditions, the grapes and the depth of the wines. The place chosen for this gourmet tour is a wine house in the capital where you can feel at home. Surrounded by hundreds of bottles, all containing a fine drop of wine, you will embark on a voyage of discovery. A total of 8 different wines are available to choose from. Greek appetizers serve as the basis for the wine tasting in Athens. The tapas plate with cheese, wine and sausage specialities is served on an old monastery table, as is the wine. Around it you sit with a small group (maximum 12 participants) and enjoy the aromas of the Greek grapes. The country's wines are considered to be of high quality, have won many awards and, thanks to the Greek climate, have a very strong character. For many centuries wine has been part of the history of Greece and for many an essential part of a good meal. The love, the sun and the experience that is in the wine of Hellas, you will surely taste during your wine tasting.

After this cosy part, an interesting tour of two of Athens's most popular districts awaits you. If you come to Anafiotika, for example, you will feel transported to another time and another city. Nothing in the small streets of this idyllic quarter reminds you of the usual hustle and bustle of the capital. Between the small, whitewashed houses, the pretty gardens and at the foot of the Acropolis, visitors feel more like in a Greek island village. During the tour you will learn more about the history of this interesting bastion and its humble inhabitants. From Anafiotika you finally reach the trendy Plaka district. Here you will find restaurants, souvenir shops, cafés, artists, manufactories and a distillery that produces exquisite drinks in a very original process. You are welcome to continue the culinary route through Athens and taste other specialities in liquid form after the wine tasting. At your side throughout the tour is an experienced guide who knows the small streets and the best addresses for connoisseurs. If you don't want to go back to the hotel after this exciting tasting, you can stroll on through the evening of Athens.

A little sadness and Greek wine

I took a wine tour two years ago. This time it was nice but different. The hygiene rules are adhered to and dull bliss does not arise so quickly. But therefor a little thoughtfulness. I can recommend the tour, especially in Corona time.

Ein wenig Wehmut und griechischer Wein

Vor zwei Jahren habe ich schon einmal eine Weintour mitgemacht. Diesmal war es schön aber anders. Die Hygieneregeln werden eingehalten und es kommt nicht so schnelle dumpfe Weinseligkeit auf. Dafür aber leichte Nachdenklichkeit. Die Tour kann ich empfehlen, gerade und auch in Coronazeit.

? Greek wine

You could never organize this tour alone. I got to try wonderful droplets. Highly recommended not only for wine connoisseurs.

? Griechischer Wein

Diese Tour könnte man allein nie organisieren. Wunderbare Tröpfchen habe ich zu probieren bekommen. Sehr empfehlenswert nicht nur für Weinkenner.
