WHY WE LOVE IT

A perfect travel experience for visitors staying in Airbnb properties and for families, this private guided walking tour is essentially a snapshot of Greek culture, food and history in just 4 hours! Undoubtedly, one of the most interesting and fun things to do in Athens.

Activity Description

Join a private walking tour to the most important landmark in Greece, the Acropolis; a unique experience which kickstarts your day with a nutritious Greek breakfast in a cosy, traditional environment on the footsteps of the Acropolis, just before your guided tour to Athens' remarkable top local attractions.
During this extraordinary breakfast in Athens you will sample a cluster of Mediterranean flavors; without the hassle of a food tour and at the comfort of a beautiful environment you will experience a tasting menu of Greek cuisine which aims to give you a holistic approach to Greek gastronomy.

Rise and shine early in the morning to meet your local expert guide before your upcoming culinary experience. First things first; enjoy a traditional Greek coffee or a freshly made orange juice to gain strength for the adventure of the day.
The options for your Greek breakfast are equally indulging; choose savory pancakes made from Naxos potatoes, served with grilled talagani cheese, eggs, and thyme honey; or froutalia, a rich and mouth-watering omelette from Andros island, made with sausages and soft volaki cheese; or fried eggs with sygklino, a smoked ham recipe produced in the region of Peloponnese. How could you resist temptations like these?

Following breakfast, your expert guide will lead you to your private guided tour to the Athens' must see Acropolis; you will be guided to the Parthenon and its surrounding monuments and listen to the facts and history around this important Greek landmark.
