Full description
Start the day with a traditional Greek coffee after meeting with a local food guide in the square of Firostefani village (next to Fira). Be prepared to have your breath taken away by the unbelievable views. The tour starts with a walk towards the famous blue domed church of Santorini (the perfect spot for photos) followed by a sampling of local mezes in a traditional tavern.
Walk on towards Fira on a footpath right on the edge of the caldera which gives more stunning sea and volcano views. Then a glass of cold local beer will be the perfect welcome to the capital of Santorini. Follow your guide through the historical alleyways and hidden paths of Fira with several stops for samplings of local treats, including an olive oil tasting and a quick bite of souvlaki - the ultimate greek street food.
Visit the daily market with fresh fish and vegetables before you try some organic honey. Then enjoy a midday meal in a tavern with views of the caldera. Loukoumades, the Greek doughnuts, will put the sweetest stop to this fun filled tour. This tour gives an introduction to Greek cuisine in a fun and informative manner from the local standpoint, showcasing not only the flavors and ingredients of Mediterranean cuisine, but also the beauty of Santorini as a world-famous destination. Local people, from the tavern owners to local farmers, souvlaki griller to honey producers, are all a part of this tour. They will be happy to share their hospitality and knowledge with you.
