You'll be captivated by Plaka's marvellous ancient ruins, street performers, and sweet pastry aromas from local bakeries as your guide brings its cultural mosaic to life, revealing its deep connections to music, cuisine, and internal migration through the lens of literature, cinema, and the heroic Oxi Day anniversary. Plus, you'll conclude your outing with a strong Greek coffee or tsipouro at an authentic Plaka coffeehouse over an engaging chat with your knowledgeable guide.
