Top Kalamata Lunch

Learn more about Kalamata’s culture through its food on this small-group walking tour for foodies–or anyone who enjoys a good meal. Your guide will take you down back alleys and to family-run stores that you might miss if traveling independently. Sample local produce and dishes along the way, as you listen to your guide’s stories about Kalamata’s history.

You’ll marvel at the two-storey neo-Classical buildings and discover this city’s rich past, and our stroll will then take you through the small stone-paved alleys of the city’s historic centre, amid small shops bursting with local colours and aromas. Upon entering the shops, the aroma of the exquisite herbs and spices wafting through the air will transport you to the top of Mt. Taygetos, the local mountain. You’ll taste local mouth-watering homemade delicacies, flavoursome Messinian appetizers and all sorts of traditional Greek treats. What will most certainly blow you away, though, is a product made from sheep’s milk and served in a baking tray! You’ll take part in a quick yet fulfilling olive-oil tasting with a professional and certified olive-oil connoisseur. A light yet filling lunch will conclude your gastronomic experience and spoil your senses, in one of the cosiest restaurants in the heart of the city.
