Beyond the Acropolis: Discover Greek Honey with a Certified Honey Sommelier

A unique food and culture memorable experience near Athens for travelers, university groups, corporate teams, and conference visitors, hosted by Spyros Skareas, Honey Sommelier

Welcome to the fascinating world of Greek honey!

Whether you are visiting Greece as part of a university program, corporate event, conference, incentive trip, family vacation, or independent journey, our honey tasting experiences offer a unique opportunity to explore Greek culture through one of its most treasured foods.

Learn from One of Europe’s Most Experienced Honey Tasters

What makes this experience different is not only the honey—it is the expertise behind it.

All tastings are led by Spyros Skareas, certified Honey Sommelier, international honey judge, consultant, educator. Having trained in professional sensory analysis and participated as a judge in honey competitions, Spyros brings a rare combination of scientific knowledge, practical beekeeping experience, and engaging storytelling.

Guests learn how to evaluate honey using professional tasting techniques, discovering how floral sources, geography, climate, and traditional beekeeping practices influence flavor, aroma, texture, and appearance.

Rather than simply tasting honey, participants gain a deeper understanding of one of Greece’s most iconic natural products.

Experience Nature Just Outside Athens

Located in Eastern Attica, our venue offers the perfect escape from the city while remaining easily accessible from central Athens, Athens International Airport, and the Athens Riviera. Guests enjoy a peaceful Mediterranean setting surrounded by trees, aromatic herbs, flowering plants, and open-air spaces. It is an ideal environment for slowing down, connecting with nature, and experiencing a different side of Greece. For many visitors, the setting itself becomes an important part of the experience.

Meet the Bees

For those interested in beekeeping and biodiversity, the experience can also include an introduction to live honey bee colonies.

Guests can observe working beehives, learn how honey is produced, discover the remarkable organization of a bee colony, and gain insight into the essential role bees play in pollination and food production.

For international visitors, this is often their first close encounter with honey bees and one of the most memorable moments of their visit.
