You visit a new olive grove, our chicken house and goats, and you are guided in the museum and the exhibits about the rural life of Ios through the centuries. Last but not least, you enjoy a tasting including ~9 kinds of cheese, 2 kinds of honey, homemade fig marmalade, wine and liqueur combined with dry fruit, breadsticks and tomatoes with olive oil from our olive trees. When you finish you will take away the meal you cooked in a special box to eat on the beach or later!

    An unmissable experience when you visit Ios! The setting is exotic and very peaceful. Hélène welcomes you very warmly; you quickly feel at home! The tasting is delicious and very friendly. I will return to take the traditional cooking lesson!! In short, I recommend it with my eyes closed ;)

    In a relaxed small group, not only was cooking here in beautiful surroundings. We also collected the ingredients for our dishes on the farm itself. It was a warm atmosphere and in addition to delicious food there were exciting insights and stories about the life of the islanders before the arrival of tourism and technology. A really nice morning. I would definitely come back!

    This experience was by far one of our favorite from our Eurotrip! We got a tour of the grounds, picked our own ingredients and started the cooking fun! The views were amazing, everything was so beautiful and well kept! Helen was so knowledgeable, patient, funny and kind! We cooked and ate and drank some yummy wine! This was one of the most authentic experiences we had during our trip! 10/10 recommend!

  • A unique and authentic experience!

    We had an absolutely lovely time !! I am traveling with my friends to IOS and we had such an authentic/unique experience! Helen and Hera were so sweet. We collected eggs straight from the chicken coup and even saw one lay and egg. The food was absolutely incredible and definitely an unforgettable experience :)

    Beautiful experience! We chose to participate in the full tour, which was a very pleasant and interesting experience. Very friendly atmosphere, culturally interesting activities and excellent cheese. The whole family is so kind! Finally, we also bought some cheese home🤗

  • Best Activity in Ios

    My husband and I did this activity during our on our stop in Ios. It was one of our all time favorite experiencs during our tour of Greece honeymoon. We were the only ones in the morning and we went with Eleni and her husband Demetri to pick onions, and garlic, and collect eggs from the coop. Demetri was a loveable goofy prankster teasing his wife in greek and goofing around with my husband. Eleni was an amazing guide telling us about the island, their family farm, and the harvest. Then we went and cooked spanikopita (including the filo) from scratch with their family's cheese with Demetri's mother (Eleni's Mother-in-law) as she repeatedly scolded the super market and effortlessly taught us how to cook. It was so much fun and truly a one-of-a-kind experience. After we made the spanikopita, we joined other guests as we toured the cheese museum and then got a tasting of cheese and homemade wine (and then we got to eat our spanikopita and had plenty to take with us on the road!). I cannot recommend this experience enough. So so so cool and soooo worth it and this family is the nicest, most loving family.

    Helen was our host. She was very welcoming and kind, she took us through the gardens, pointing out herbs and vegetables. She also answered all our questions with enthusiasm and gave us a guided tour rich with history about the farm. John was a great help, he helped us get eggs from the chickens and made sure we had everything we needed. Thia Froso was delightful and we had a wonderful time cooking with her. The cheeses, wine and honey were all delicious, and the grounds are beautiful.
