Summary:
Gina was great! Gina has a wealth of knowledge about this area and shared it with us as we sat, and tasted Greek coffee, Greek desserts, Greek cheese, Greek meats and Greek wine. The lemon gelato was amazing! Come hungry… We made the mistake of eating a like breakfast and weren’t able to finish all that was presented to us.

Summary:
After a bit of confusion on where to meet (the link to Google map pinpointed meeting in the middle of a parking lot about a 2 minute walk from the tender, which was NOT the meeting place) our guide found us waiting at a nearby hotel. Maria, our guide, was outstanding. We went to a local cheese/meat/jelly shop a liquor store and an outside Cafe
All of the food and drinks were beyond yummy. I highly recommend this tour
