Athens walk and wine tasting

First, as Athenians do, we will meet in Monastiraki Square in the city center. We'll grab a coffee and do a "volta" -- a leisurely walk through the city to give you a taste of what it's like to be a local! The walk will take about 1,5 hours. During it, I'll share with you my love for Athens -- the hidden paths, beautiful backstreets and hills, its living history, and some personal stories as well. I'll give you a glimpse of the modern Athenian lifestyle, where we hang out, where we eat, and most importantly where we cut loose. We'll end the "volta" at one of the best wine bars in Athens. There, we'll spend 1,5 hours more, and during that time we will do a brief introduction to Greek wine culture, as well as a short master class about wine tasting and food pairing. We'll taste four indigenous grape varieties, combined with a salad, cold cuts, and an assortment of Greek cheeses. This experience will give you a personal view of the city and its citizens and will introduce you to the art and science of tasting wine.
