This class was something different that will stick with us. Fofi is so nice and walks you through everything. Rather than just go through the motions, she genuinely seems to care if everyone is having a good time. The food was incredible and we made way more than the 12 of us could eat. This is an absolute must and well worth the money.

Gods and myths walking tour. Loved this tour. We learned so much and our teenage boys really enjoyed it. They are 15yo. We got to see parts of Athens we would never have discovered on our own. I love walking tours. Such a great way to get to know the city.

Our teenage daughter had requested a Greek cooking class during our stay in Athens and it was a great experience.Small group of 16 guests and very hands on. Fofi, the instructor, was engaging and taught us how to make the specific dishes on the menu, but also gave us tips and insights into Greek cuisine, ingredients, culture.

We had a great guide and we enjoyed his insights and knowledge. It was great to see Athens' sights in a small group. The tour goes for 5 hours so it's a relatively long time, but it is at a casual pace. Would recommend this tour! Very good if you want to see the sights and get an idea of the historical importance of each area.

Wonderful AM Acropolis Tour! Highly recommend this early AM Acropolis Guided Tour! My husband and I took this tour in May while on our honeymoon in Greece. We only had a day to spend in Athens and this was definitely time well spent!

Greek Small-Group Cooking Class in an Athens Tavern. Our teacher was fabulous. She engaged everyone from the very beginning. Her English was impeccable and she gave great tips and knowledge. I would recommend to friends to do! Our dishes turned out yummy. I think she inspired my husband to cook!
