Taste your way through Nafplio on a 3-hour guided food tour. Stop at local spots around town, sample Greek specialties and hear from your guide about the food and the places you visit.
Overview
This three-hour walk with Landlife Travel mixes eating with sightseeing across old Nafplio. The group meets at Philellion Square and moves on foot between food stops, sampling local products while passing neoclassical mansions, Venetian balconies, Syntagma Square and views of the Mpourtzi fortress. A local English-speaking leader handles the route and the history, so nobody has to puzzle over menus in Greek. Tastings typically cover coffee and bakery items, honey, cheese and wine, according to multiple reviewers, with shop owners often joining in to explain what they sell.
It is as much a city orientation as a food run. Reviewers repeatedly describe learning the town's history between stops and picking up tips on what else to see during their stay. Some said it worked well as a first-day activity for exactly that reason. One past guest felt the amount of food did not match the price and came back hungry, so treat this as a tasting walk rather than a meal.
Groups run to a maximum of 15 travellers and a minimum of 2 people per booking is required. Children may join if accompanied by an adult. Pickup and drop-off from the port or the old city is included; anything outside Nafplio is not.

What To Expect From The Tour
A few practical points will help you decide whether this walk fits your day in Nafplio.
- Eating pace. Tastings are spread across the walk rather than served as a meal. Several reviewers mentioned coffee and bakery items, honey, cheese and wine. One traveller returned hungry, so plan a proper meal afterwards.
- It is a walking tour. Expect to be on your feet for much of the three hours, moving between stops through the old town. Reasonable mobility helps you enjoy the pace.
- History plus food. Reviewers often mention the guide's commentary on the town and its past, and one described it as more of a walking history tour than a food tour. Go in expecting both elements.
- Shop owners talk. At several stops the owners themselves explain the products. Reviewers praised the cheese shop and wine shop hosts in particular for their knowledge and generous samples.
- Weather and timing. The tour runs regardless of weather, though cancellations for unfavourable conditions come with an alternative date or a full refund. Wine tasting has started as early as 10am on some departures, one reviewer noted.
- Group size. The cap is 15 travellers per departure, and a minimum of 2 people per booking applies. Reviewers consistently praise the guides as friendly and personable.
Common issues. The walk is not wheelchair accessible, according to the listing. A minimum of 2 people per booking applies, and children must come with an adult. One reviewer felt the tastings did not justify the cost and left hungry, and another wished the wine tasting came last rather than first. Cancellation is free only up to 24 hours before the start time, so late changes forfeit the payment.
