Become a pistachio connoisseur, touring a pistachio farm on the island of Aegina.
 

The pistachio tree was brought to Greece in 1896 from Asia. Today it has become one of the most famous nuts in the world, and it is fair to say the small island of Aegina, a short ferry ride from Athens, is the place to go if you enjoy this flavorful and healthy nut. 

On the island you can discover the remarkable history of the world-famous “Aegina Pistachio nuts” (yes, they are officially called that!) by joining a tour of a Pistachio orchard. 

On the tour you will discover the origin of the trees, learn about the harvesting process and, the best part, enjoy delicious, local, and homemade pistachio snacks.

You can not only cultivate your tastes with the best pistachio products. In order to complete your tasting experience, you will indulge in traditional snacks.

By the end of your visit you will be full of facts that will impress your friends next time you share pistachios with them.
