    Best tasting experience ever

    The experience and expertise of our host was extensive and impressive. She knew walked us through the tasting and explained in extensive detail the process how the EVOO that were were sampling came to be, the harvest, the process, the region. Again, she was absolutely amazing and I would do this tour many times. The store itself has TONS of selections of high quality EVOOs, honeys, balsamic glazez, treats, sweets and olives. It's an amazing place and I can wait to came back all the way from the USofA.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for such an amazing review! We’re truly happy that you enjoyed the tasting experience and the detailed journey through olive oil production. Sharing knowledge and passion for these products is at the heart of what we do. We’ll be more than happy to welcome you again on your next visit from the USA!

    Fun and educational experience

    We (family of 4 with two teenagers) booked the olive oil tasting class and thoroughly enjoyed it. We have been to wine tastings, cheese tastings, and chocolate tastings, but this was a new and fun experience. We have a much deeper appreciation for everything that goes into olive oil production, as well as the differences in taste and quality of olive oil. Would definitely recommend this glass to make your trip to Thessaloniki complete!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your wonderful feedback! We’re so happy you and your family enjoyed the olive oil tasting and left with a deeper appreciation for the craft behind every drop. It’s always a joy to guide guests through the flavours, aromas, and stories of Greek olive oil and hearing that it made your Thessaloniki trip even more special means the world to us. Don't forget we offer worldwide shipping and would love to have our products sent to Mexico! Friendly, Ellie

    Definitely worth it!

    Wonderful experience..the tasting is located inside a cozy shop, which is a plus for the heat..if you’re a chef or enjoy cooking, it’s so important to understand olive oils and the variety. Alex was super helpful and kind..made us feel special and invited. Really enjoyed our experience!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely words! I'm really glad you enjoyed the tasting and felt comfortable in the shop! It means a lot that you appreciated the variety and importance of olive oil. I am really happy to hear your kind feedback. Hope to see you again soon for more flavors and good vibes! 😊 Happy Vacations in GR Alexandros

    Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Thessaloniki.

    How much does Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki cost?

    +

    Prices start at $46 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Thessaloniki usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Thessaloniki is not rushed.

    Is Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Thessaloniki, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Thessaloniki can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Thessaloniki and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Thessaloniki within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Thessaloniki?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Thessaloniki experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gastronomic Food Tour in Thessaloniki with a Chef, Discover Vergina and Pella: Day Trip to Macedonian Kingdom, Thessaloniki : Half-Day Sailing Cruise to Shipwreck Bay !. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Thessaloniki?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Thessaloniki?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; and Snacks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Olicatessen Olive Oil Tasting in Thessaloniki?

    +

    Travellers can meet us at the Olicatessen store in the Ladadika district. Once you arrive, please let one of our colleagues know that you have booked a tasting with us. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
