Athens market walk and hands-on Greek cooking class with wine. Cook tzatziki, spanakopita, dolmades, then leave with recipes.
“I loved it! As a solo traveller, I was able to make great connections. Also, we got to take the left overs, so for me it was enough to have dinner twice!”
Athens market walk plus a hands-on cooking class at The Greek Kitchen. Make dolmades, spanakopita, tzatziki, and enjoy wine.
“So much fun! The market visit was nice and they accommodated me as a vegetarian. The cooking class was paced just right and we got to talk and ask questions as we were cooking. All of the food was amazing and fun to cook it together as a community of people who didn’t know each other before. Highly recommend this activity!”
Taste Athens street food and Varvakeios Market on a guided 3.5-hour tour, with olive oil, pies, cheese, and souvlaki.
“We had a great time on this tour (6 of us). The food is fantastic, and diverse, and you get a nice walking tour of the area. Our guide was very engaging and kept a good pace so that even the younger ones in our group (who usually prefer to explore on their own) had a great time. I might have liked a little deeper explanation about the history of specific snacks or their relevance to daily life, but no one else in my group would have liked that so I'm 5-starring this one.”
Heraklion market and port walk plus CretAquarium in Gournes, with free hotel pickup. Aquarium entrance extra.
“it was a well organised trip and everything ran to time, the drivers were friendly and the guide was excellent providing great instructions and information when needed, Sealand travel who ran the trip can be trusted and you should have confidence if they are your company thank you Sealand”
Taste Thessaloniki street food on a 3-hour walking tour through Kapani and Modiano markets, with Greek coffee and local stops.
“I had an unforgettable experience on the last day of my Greece food tour, thanks to the incredible food and our amazing guide, Elani. Her deep knowledge and patience made the journey so much more enriching, as she answered all our questions with grace and enthusiasm. Wishing her all the best in her future studies! The food itself was exceptional. We began by sampling delicious Greek olives, followed by creamy feta and a cheese similar to gouda. The pastry tastings were a highlight—*tiropita* (a savory cheese pie) and *bougatsa* (a sweet custard pie) were absolutely delicious. We also had the chance to try Greek Turkish delight, paired perfectly with rich,…”

Shop Athens Central Market, cook tzatziki and dolmadakia, then enjoy lunch with wine at a traditional taverna. Recipes included.
“Very happy with the company for allowing the tour to still take place we paid for the group tour but because this was the off season we were the only couple. Had an amazing time walking the city with our guide, he was somewhat new to the tour industry but really had the history and city knowledge of how daily life takes place. Gave us so much insight on how life and politics work throughout the city. Allowed us to go to different parts of the market to get the experience. Great translator for our chef experience and was very kind and spoke to our American understanding. Got to know…”
Knossos Palace and Heraklion market day trip from Crete, with hotel pickup, a live guide, and time in the city by the harbor.
“de Engelstalige gids was goed onderlegd!wat ik persoonlijk jammer vond is dat ze maar door ratelde...De wetenswaardigheden kon je niet eens verwerken...iets rustiger is ook goed en iets minder ook! ik persoonlijk voelde het als een" haastige" dag, maar toch genoten. voor iemand die minder goed ter been is , is het bezoek aan het paleis van Knossos erg zwaar.”
Private Greek wine tasting in Athens at Finewine with up to six grape samples, cheese and olives, and a map of wine regions.
“Wonderful little shop in a very cute neighborhood. The staff was very knowledgeable and informative during our tasting of wines from throughout Greece. Highly recommend.”
