Dégustation de vins à Athènes en Grèce

for all kind of wine lovers, …. Excellent informative sommelier, Her introduction, the atmosphere she created, and all the Q&A

We have enjoyed several Viator tours in the past. We are very disappointed in this our May 10th Wine Tasting Tour of Athens Greece. First, the Viator trip details gave the wrong meeting location (the tour company said they would notify you). Second, there were only the two of us of on a group wine tasting tour. Our guide, Katerina, did her best to improvise but the tour was weak and no where worth the price. Our first stop was an old 1909 bar that was very pleasant, in the second stop we did not even have seats and my wife sat on a step stool, the third stop very forgettable and fourth stop had a nice view but bad music and the crowd was 40 years younger. The area was very sketchy and we were uncomfortable walking back to the hotel from this area. Katerina gave us some nice restaurant tips and local history. We think this tour should have been canceled with only two participants, and the start location mixup. We were promised a relaxing way to spend a night in Athens and expected to meet fellow travelers and “the wine tasting in a cosy wine cellar which are appropriately paired with cured meats, cheeses, and olives.” This was not at all what we experienced. Viator screwed this one up.

Our guide, Costas, was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, kind, interactive with our young ones, and very gracious! Definitely worth the cost and the food was authentic! I highly recommend!

That was a great tour! We tasted all the local wine varieties and all them were amazing. Anna is very warm and friendly and gave as all the insights. Higly recommended.

Honestly, it was brilliant! Anna is so knowledgeable but defers to the owners in the bar. The result is a discussion amongst friends! A wander through Anafiotika to end the tour. Beautiful. Chilled. Relaxing.
