Private vineyard tour & wine tasting

Service Description

Welcome to a special private visit to Pyrgos Vasilissis — a historic estate just outside Athens where wine, nature, history and tradition meet. This is your chance to see a part of Greece rarely experienced by regular travelers. Private pick-up & drop-off from your Athens address, so everything is effortless and comfortable. A tour of the estate with a friendly local guide: stroll the vineyards, explore the olive groves, and visit the winery and production areas. The vineyard and olive trees currently cultivated on the estate follow organic practices. Delve into how the estate produces its wines and olive oils — from vine to bottle — as you learn traditional and modern production techniques. Visit the historic royal chambers and stables: walk through the Gothic-style tower built in the 19th century for Queen Amalia of Greece and King Otto of Greece, admire its elegant architecture and period interiors, and meet the estate’s horses in the stables. Finally, enjoy a wine-and-food pairing: sample five different labels from the estate, accompanied by a light lunch — seasonal Greek fare carefully matched to complement each wine.
