GOOD TO KNOW
This is not a guided village tour.
The main tasting experience takes place at PENDE Food Bar in Parthenonas and includes a short visit to a nearby olive grove.
Your Local Host: Kostas
Meet the Person Behind the Stories
Kosta welcomes you personally and guides you through the entire experience.
His connection to this region is not something he learned from a guidebook.
His family roots are in both Parthenonas and Neos Marmaras, and he has a strong personal connection to the places, traditions and stories of this part of Sithonia.
During the tasting, he will tell you more about the region, olive cultivation and the connection between Parthenonas and Neos Marmaras.
For Kosta, this experience is about more than presenting local food. It is about sharing a little of the feeling, culture and hospitality that make this place so special to him.
Come as a guest. Leave with a deeper connection to Halkidiki.
