Begin your experience with a short guided walk through the Old Town of Kavala. Stroll along quiet cobblestone streets, pass colourful traditional houses, and enjoy panoramic views of the sea and the harbour below. As you walk, hear stories about the city’s past, from its Ottoman influence to the families who shaped its food culture over generations.
This first part is relaxed and easy, allowing you to settle in, take photos, and connect with the surroundings before you begin tasting. By the time you reach your first food stop, you will already feel the rhythm of the old city and understand how history and daily life are connected to the flavours you are about to try.
Visit five carefully selected stops in the city of Kavala. Taste fresh local pastry straight from the oven, try the famous kourabie cookie that Kavala is known for, and enjoy a classic Greek souvlaki from a “hole-in-the-wall” style grillhouse, prepared the traditional way.
Visit a local cheesemaker to sample regional cheeses and learn how they are produced, followed by an olive oil and honey tasting where you will understand the difference between everyday products and small-scale local production.
