Under the Acropolis Rock there is one market that marries the East to the West. Multi-culturalism has a true meaning here. Buildings, objects and even people from different cultures and religions are successfully combined to create the most popular market in Athens, the flea market in Monastiraki. Each Sunday from 9:00am both locals and visitors check out the vintage furniture, clothes, shoes and many more in order to find the best bargain possible.
A little further down the road lies the Central Market. This is a food market that is mainly equipped with meat and fish products. Despite that, you can find spices and traditional Greek products such as olives or cheese to take back home. The Central market is open from Monday to Saturday from 8:00am to 6:00pm. Make sure you wear your sneakers because the roads are always covered in water.

We had a fantastic time with Georgia. She was incredibly informative and fun to spend a Sunday afternoon with. I can’t recommend her enough.
We are a group of 6 from Chicago area. Dionysus was great, very knowledgeable and took us to places we wouldn’t have gone on our own. Food selection and amount was perfect and the walk around the streets of Athens was just what we were looking for.
Dionysis was an amazing guide showing us some of the best food in Athens. He was also very knowledgeable about historical sites that we were able to view while walking between food experiences, which made the tour very well-rounded.
