A Wine Walk Through Historic Athens
Join us for a leisurely walk through the charming streets of Plaka, Athens’ oldest neighborhood, and explore three unique local wine bars, each with its own character and story.
This isn’t just about tasting wine. It’s about experiencing it — learning about native grape varieties, traditional winemaking methods, and the passionate local vintners behind each label. All wines are 100% Greek, sustainably grown and thoughtfully selected to highlight the incredible diversity of Greece’s vineyards.
What’s included:
1. 6 glasses (75ml) of Greek wine per person
2. Meze (Greek appetizers like rusks, cheese, olives, tomato) at each wine bar
3. Reserved tables at every stop for a relaxed experience
4. A knowledgeable and friendly local guide to walk you through the wines and their stories
Enjoy a cozy, flavorful evening in Athens — discovering great wines, meeting local people, and connecting with the city in an authentic and thoughtful way.

5.00This tour is a great way to learn about Greek wines. We knew absolutely nothing about these wines so we decided on this tour. Our guy was a very pleasant and professional young man named Chris. He guided the four of us to three venues we would never have found. The we sampled to each of roses, whites and red wines. He was very careful to make sure we enjoyed our experiences and was a joy to be around. I highly recommend this tour.
Fine Tour!

5.00I had a tour with Anastasia who was very informative about wines in Greece in addition she was very informative about the culture of Greece. The experience was very enjoyable and I would highly recommend any person who loves wine to gives this a go. The 3 venues were also fantastic venues which you’d normally miss if just travelling through Athens. Highly recommend to any travellers! 5 stars!

5.00We booked this wine tour for the day we arrived in Athens . When we met Chris we were surprised to find out this the tour would just be my best fiend and I . She greeted us with such pleasure and enthusiasm we instantly felt at ease. She took us to 3 very unique wine bars that I am confident we never would have found on our own . Each spot included a snack and a few wine tastings . Chris shared her knowledge about the history of the wine , the region and the unique cheeses and snacks . We left the tour feeling like we had made a new friend . Highly recommend and ask for Chris !
Must, must do this wine tour!

5.00Chis was an amazing tour guide. Her knowledge on Athens, Greece, wine and cheese kept our full attention and inspired us to ask questions. Her kindness and sincere character made us comfortable and left us full of great wine, food and knowledge. This evening could not have been better, I’ve been on similar tours in other countries and this was by far my favorite.
Fun and Delicious wine tasting with George

5.00My husband and I had a great wine tasting experience with our guide George. We were the only 2 people that signed up for the tour that day, and we appreciated the tour proceeding with only the 2 of us. George took us to 3 different wine bars. Each distinct in atmosphere and history. The first was at an underground basement with a sommelier attending serving us 2 different rosé wines with a generous accompaniment of cheeses, olives, and spreads. The wines were delicious. The second wine tasting was at a modern very classy wine bar that served us 2 great white wines with a side of cheeses and olives. The 3rd wine bar was at a trendy modern wine bar that served us 2 reds with accompanying cheeses and crackers and other accompaniments. George throughout explained the area and history of each place and Athenian history. He has a fun sense of humor and is very knowledgeable about the area. He was kind and considerate. We truly enjoyed our tour with George. Thank you George!
