This was such an incredible class! Georgios was our host and was absolutely wonderful. He also translated for our chef, Francesca who was a delight. Georgios translated everything from Franchesca and took the time to explain the traditions behind the dishes we prepared. This was by far our favorite thing we did in Greece and is a MUST if you are visting Mykonos. The view while eating was second to none. Thank you Georgios and Franchesca!

I had high expectations for this excursion and it exceeded them. There were 6 people total. It is not a private home. They basically rent a small condo with an amazing view. The grandmother in the pictures demonstrates the cooking. The tour guide translated and gave lots of cooking tips and stories. We prepped, cut, made the meat, dough and tzatziki. All were fantastic. Nice meal on the patio and several glasses of wine through out. We had a great time. If arriving on a cruise, they typically port or anchor at the “New Port”. Shuttle buses run constantly to the “old port” (about 1km south) which is a few hundred meters walk from the shopping/dining district of Mykonos town. It’s not a big deal at all. We met at the police station of the old port.

This is truly a Hands-On cooking experience second to none. Extremely organized by Georgios, Mgr of Greek Travel Advisors and Chef Francesa! From Port pick up to learning the history of the local culture and using the freshest ingredients made this a Magical day in Mykonos! The small group was perfect! We had plenty of time to mingle, cook and relax. A must do imo!

This was the most wonderful excursion we have ever been on! Georgios was an amazing host. He made the experience so much fun. We helped cook a delicious Greek meal guided by the incredible chef Francesca, and felt like we made new friends for life. The view from the balcony where we ate our meal could not be topped. My husband and I can wholeheartedly recommend this excursion. You will not be disappointed!

I cannot rave enough about this experience. Pick up/drop off was great-the driver picked up on time and dropped us off near shopping center instead of back at the port when we requested. he even took a group photo of us in front of the view of the Sea. All staff was amazing. The views from the venue were breathtaking and the food was absolutely delicious. They allowed us to write down the recipes, and I will 100% make the true Tzatziki sauce when I return home!! There were 8 family members in my group (max amount allowed), and we had a ball. I think if you are in a smaller group and had to share the space with another group, the experience would still be good.
