Athens Activities

Best Athens Wine Tasting Tours in 2026 (6 Local Experiences Reviewed)

ℹ️ TL;DR: The best wine experience from Athens in 2026 is the Nemea vineyard day trip — €95, 8 hours, 2-3 family-owned wineries, award-winning Agiorgitiko red wine, and a Greek lunch with vineyard views. Urban wine bar tastings in Athens (Psyrri, Kolonaki) cost €40-50 for 2 hours and 5-7 wines — great if you’re short on time. Greece has 300+ indigenous grape varieties found nowhere else in the world. Here’s something that surprised me when I first started spending time in Greece: this country has been making wine for over 6,500 years. That’s longer than anywhere else in Europe. And yet most visitors order a beer or an ouzo and never think twice about the wine.
