Athens · WINE TASTINGS
Greek wine is having its decade, and Athens pours it on rooftops under the floodlit rock: assyrtiko from Santorini, agiorgitiko from Nemea, grapes grown nowhere else. These 14 tastings differ on the view, the food alongside and the number of pours — priced and timed.

“Thank you so much Yiannis and team for a very special, memorable experience! This is a great way to spend the afternoon on the water, culminating in a beautiful sunset. The highlight was the food! 10 courses, as promised, of beautiful and fresh Greek cuisine, cooked onboard. More than enough to go around the small group of 6! My favourites were the moussaka and Greek salad, but we also had dolmas, sausage, grilled cheese, bread, giant beans and more. Behind the scenes, the hosts take candid pictures of you enjoying the boat and the sunset. The pictures are truly gorgeous. A welcome drink is included, but after that you buy…”

“Met with our guide at the designated meeting point, again sorry can't remember her name... enjoyed the experience but would make a few suggestions. 1st stop was for Soulvaki (Hoocut), we were given a glass of water, but would have liked to have had some kind of drink with this, even if the guide gave us the option to go and buy a drink ourselves.

The local spirt is not everyones choice…”
