You’ll taste local mouth-watering homemade delicacies, flavoursome Messinian appetizers and all sorts of traditional Greek treats.

The traditional workshop in Part 2 is open only in the mornings and closed in the afternoons. Therefore, when the Food tour takes place in the afternoons, either we visit another available workshop or the two local products are given at the end of the experience and the tour starts with the visit in the local shop in Part 3.
Availability: The food tour experience is available in the mornings from Monday to Saturday, excluding Sundays, Holy Friday – Easter Tuesday and Greek official holidays.
In the afternoons, the wine shop closes at 20:45 p.m. so the wine tasting of the local wines, takes place during the light dinner.
On Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays afternoon, most of the local shops are closed among them, the Coffee Micro Roastery. Therefore, we visit another Coffee shop and we enjoy our Greek coffee while walking in the historical centre.
