Athens: Aegina Island Pistachio Farm & Heritage Tour

Travel by ferry from Athens to Aegina for a well-planned island day trip combining local traditions, ancient landmarks, and free time by the coast.

Aegina blends ancient heritage with island life, from the medieval churches of Palaiochora to the hilltop Temple of Athena Aphaia and Agios Nektarios Monastery.

Visit a working pistachio farm to sample local products, explore historic religious sites, and enjoy free time in Agia Marina for swimming or lunch by the sea.

An English-speaking tour host accompanies the day, with round-trip ferry tickets, pistachio tastings, and entry to the medieval churches included.

Choose a small-group tour for a shared experience or upgrade to a private tour with a more personalized pace and itinerary.
