Description - What to expect

Your Chios food tour starts with a visit to the famous Chios Castle. Listen to your guide and travel back in time during the Genovese, Venetian, and Ottoman occupations. Make a quick stop for a delicious Greek coffee flavored with mastic, and a delicacy while you enjoy the early morning vibe of the town.

Continue your Chios food tour with a pleasant stroll around the main shopping streets of Chios. Explore the narrow, maze-like alleys, known as sokakia, visit the busy market where fish, meat, vegetables, spice, and nuts are on sale to get the local vibe, and try Chios’ local superfood and other dried fruits and the best, handmade cheesepie Chios has to offer.
