"It was a fun evening in a beautiful location up in the mountains over looking the ocean - learning about how this family lives in their village and are pretty self sustaining. The cooking experience was simple but very enjoyable and the meal was delicious. Very happy we signed up."

What Travelers Say
"Our group of two families with teenagers thoroughly enjoyed both the experience and the meal. It was professional, welcoming, friendly and informative. The setting was beautiful, the food was delicious."
"We had one of our favorite days!! Our guide was so sweet and knowledgeable and the host/cooking family were amazing as well. The views were breathtaking and we learned three recipes. The food was delicious and we are going home with skills we could never get in the US. The only problem is, our ingredients will never be as fresh as theirs! 100000/10"

"This was our favorite tour on our trip to Chania. Our group of 20 family members ranging from age 13-63 loved every minute. Our guide was very knowledgeable and provided an excellent tour in a beautiful location. The family leading the class were fun and we enjoyed working together to prepare the meal. All of the food was delicious and it was an enjoyable evening. I highly recommend booking this activity."

"Such a fun trip from Chania - transportation was easy and learned so much from our guide Alex. The food and the local farm that the family welcomed us in made it a trip we will always remember!"

"Absolutely fantastic class! You not only learn the recipes and techniques, but get a wonderful history lesson about the family, the estate, and the island. The estate is absolutely beautiful with views of the mountains on one side and the ocean on the other. The family was very welcoming and the meal was delicious. The transportation to and from the estate was on-time and our driver/tour guide leader shared with us many facts and historical insights about Crete during the drive. I highly recommend this to anyone who has a chance to join this excursion!"

"Really awesome activity! The transport was super easy from Chania and the location is just stunning. The meal is incredible and you definitely won’t leave hungry"
"The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. The scenery was beautiful. The cooking instructors were hilarious. The food was delicious, even if I do say so myself. The wine and honey were also wonderful. I highly recommend!"
