Itinerary

Midmorning, meet your foodie guide in central Kalambaka, the town closest to Meteora. Set off by foot on a series of short walks around town to visit local gourmet shops and other places where you can find the flavors of Thessaly. Explore Greece's culinary heritage, which combines influence from Italy, the Balkans, and the Near East, and learn why the Mediterranean diet centered around herbs, olive oil, nuts, legumes, and fresh produce is considered among the healthiest on Earth.

Climb aboard a minivan for a drive to a family-run winery, where you’ll taste five different regional varietals and learn about Meteora’s winemaking traditions. Treat your palate to a sampling of local snacks like homemade spinach pie, sausages, bougatsa (custard-filled phyllo pastry), yogurt, zesty herbs and spices, and locally produced cheeses.

You'll also take a bite out of the area’s prized fungi with a visit to the Natural History Museum of Meteora and Mushroom Museum, with displays about mushroom lifecycles and a tasting of creative mushroom-based dishes.

We had a great time! Our guide was...

Elena M, May 2017

We had a great time! Our guide was very personable and knowledgeable. First, we went to a couple of places to try a local yogurt and spinach pies and then to a mushroom museum to try different mushrooms. This place had a great selection of different pickled mushrooms and olive oils with truffles. I wish I got more of that olive oil, I got one small jar and now use it with salads and cooking all kind of food as truffles smell great. After this we drove to a winery and on our way there stopped on a side of a road to get some local fruits and dedicatees. I must say we really liked the selection of wines and enjoyed hospitality of the winerys owner. Our last stop was at a local restaurant we had a delicious lunch. We also enjoyed hearing different historical information and stories about Greece and the area throughout the tour.
