Where to Eat and Taste Wine Like a Local in Greece

Greek cuisine is best enjoyed the way locals do — at a family-run taverna, with fresh seafood, garden vegetables, and a chilled glass of local wine as the sun sets over the water.

Look for the tavernas tucked away from the main tourist strip, where the day’s catch is written on a chalkboard and the olive oil comes from the owner’s own grove.

Wine Tasting Across the Islands

Santorini’s volcanic soil produces the crisp, mineral Assyrtiko grape, while Crete and the Peloponnese offer their own celebrated reds and whites. A private wine tasting tour, arranged through our team, is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon.

Greek Cocktails and Sunset

As evening falls, a rooftop bar or beach lounge serving Greek cocktails — think ouzo-based spritzes and mastiha liqueur — is the perfect way to toast another beautiful sunset.
