Sofia is a very passionate and friendly person. She’s a Kalamata local and leads you to hidden gems such as a traditional bakery, a cheese/olive/wine shop, a butcher, etc. The food was delicious, the owners very eager to share their love for their products. Don’t worry: there was never any pressure to buy things from the shops since you’re already paying for the tour. Sofia also tells you a few historical facts without getting boring or too detailed. I had a lovely time and will keep great memories! Tip: do really skip breakfast and you’ll have plenty to feast on!

A Must In Kalamata! 1) Sofia. More than an incredible tour guide, a passionate local with the best vibes I’ve ever encountered. 🗺️ 2) Locals. Gentle, hardworking people who make you feel a homelike warmth from the very moment you walk in their shops. You can see the pride and love with which they talk about their fantastic delicacies and be a live witness of their incredible work! ❤️ 3) Every single bite. From beginning to end, the quality of both product and service were outstanding. 🥗 P.S. Even though I skipped telling Sofia the fact that it was my birthday that day, when she came to realize, she pivoted the whole experience in the most amazing way I’ve ever seen a professional react, making it a birthday to never forget. 🥹 Thank you once more! 🙏🏼 Memorable experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
