      This experience was better than we could have ever imagined!! We felt right at home when we walked in. The hosts were so friendly and hospitable. The food we cooked was incredible! We also got to take a tour of the village, which was an added bonus. We highly recommend this class to anyone!

      Decent Experience In A Unique Place!

      Paisley_G, Dec 2025
      The experience was pretty average for the price, however, we still had a good time. We really liked going to a different area of Naxos and seeing a genuine small village. Reading other people’s reviews and seeing photos - it does not seem like we got the same positive experience as others. No wine/alcohol was offered (even though it’s mentioned in the listing) and the courses we cooked were not that great. Perhaps because it was the low season - there was also no Gregory or family there like other reviewers mentioned. We were thankful that we were shown a Christmas pork dish (it was a baked pork that she did for the first time), though I don’t recommend it in future classes (pretty dry and not a lot of flavor). In other photos, there was a nice set table on the balcony area overlooking the nice view - we were sat inside on a beautiful day. This would have been really nice. In addition, we were told we would be shared the recipes and photos but I have not received a response from the host ever since the cooking class concluded a few days ago. Overall, Anna was very kind and knowledgeable about food. Our favorite thing we made was the Christmas cookies! I just don’t think the dishes we cooked were worth the price point.

      It was a great experience. She talked about what we were cooking as we were cooking and gave us a tour of the town while our food was cooking.

      Cooking with Anna and her family was a wonderful traditional Greek experience! We cooked and ate and laughed and it felt like we were part of the family. The food was amazing and we’re going to try to make some of the recipes when we get home.

      It was a great experience. Anna was very friendly and easy to talk to. I felt like a learnt a lot and am excited to try these recipes again at home. The town was beautiful and I loved the amazing view while enjoying the food. I would definitely recommend this course to others as a unique way to experience Naxos culture and cuisine.

      Great cooking class for the whole family.

      Great experience for the whole family. We made delicious traditional dishes with a very engaging and experienced host, Anna. We had so much food we couldn’t eat it all! The location in the quaint hillside village was interesting to experience and had a great view of the nearby towns.

      Beautiful Location and Wonderful People

      Laurel_S, Jun 2024
      We joined five other vacationers for the cooking class given by Anna at her family taverna. Together we made six Greek dishes under Anna’s expert guidance. We were given recipes and I feel very confident about making these items at home. The location of the taverna is beautiful and Anna took us on a walking tour of the village before we sat down to enjoy our dinner. We recommend this food tour highly!

      GREAT COOKING CLASS

      Memories in Naxos

      Christopher_K, Jun 2024
      Anna was delightful! From helping us find the location of the class to the parting gift at the end, we couldn't have asked for more. It was so much more than a cooking class. Local history and tradition was shared throughout and on a walk while dinner was cooking. I highly recommend!
