Chris the chef was amazing! This class was the highlight of our entire Greece vacation. We learned so much from Chris and enjoyed the food. After our class and dinner, we even were able to enjoy a winery tour. The trip to the beach was a distance to travel, but we enjoyed the drinks and fruit at the beach.

Gourmet and unpretentious in Santorini- excellent choice for an afternoon activity

Christy_J, Sep 2026
Chris, our chef and Constantin, our sommelier were so inviting and passionate! The menu was delicious and the directions provided were simple - they made it laid-back and fun for all involved. Our driver, Arthur was prompt, engaging and discussed all the planned details as we traveled along- very knowledgeable and personable. Thank you for an all-around great and memorable experience.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

We have traveled for many years and this experience is now one of the top excursions we have done. Chef and team were absolutely fantastic. 10/10. I can’t tell you how joy we had with this experience. We will be back for sure

Very fun experience

Allison_S, May 2024
The chef made the experience amazing! Very informative while also personable. Did this on our honeymoon. The chef walked us through everything, but we chopped all ingredients and cooked all the food. It was delicious! After we had our meal and a bottle of wine included. We then had a car that transferred us to the black beach for cocktails and that was amazing as well.

Food was fabulous and so was Chef Chris!

Jody_P, Apr 2024
The shuttle driver was on time and friendly. The location is stunningly beautiful. It was just the four of us, so we could relax and go at our own pace. The food was delicious, not complicated do we could make this again. The kids said it was the perfect was day of our vacation before heading home.

Fun and delicious!

Liz_G, Oct 2023
We highly recommend the cooking demonstration. The chef was fun and engaging and the food was abundant and delicious. We were so full of food and wine at the end that we decided to skip cocktails on the beach. We will definitely do this again if we have the opportunity to return to Santorini in the future.

Response from Host, May 2026

Dear Liz, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for your kind recommendation! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the cooking experience and that the chef made the class fun, engaging, and memorable. There is nothing better than hearing that our guests enjoyed the food, wine, and atmosphere so much that they left happy and full! We completely understand your decision to skip the beach cocktails after such a delicious experience — and we’re very happy that you still had such a wonderful time. Your kind words truly mean a lot to us, and we would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back to Santorini in the future for another memorable experience. Warm regards, Angelo & Angels Travel Team

do not include cocktail on beach!

Missy_D, Sep 2023
We loved the cooking class! would highly recommend it!! It was the highlight of our trip. However, I had also paid for cocktails on the beach and after we had finished the cooking class and had a great meal and were super excited to finish the day with a cocktail, the driver asked if we even wanted to go and made it seem like it was an inconvenience when I said yes I had paid and wanted to go he took us to a beach and told a person there to let us sit down and then left, and no one ever spoke to us, no drinks were offered!! It was horrible. I walked the beach a bit and then asked for our ride back to the hotel- That was a total waste and ended the day on a sour note. This was a very nice beach that should have been a great ending - If I had just done the cooking class I would give this 5 stars!! DO NOT INCLUDE COCKTAILS ON BEACH!!!!

Do not pay for the drinks and sunset.

Thomas_H, Aug 2023
This is misleading. The chef lessons were great and the food was as well. However, we thought the adventure was going to end with cocktails and a sunset. Unfortunately it was 1 Virgin strawberry drink and a view that did not include a sunset. Way to pricey for what you get.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

I am sorry that you didn't enjoy the second part of your tour. However in the description of the tour it is not stated that the tour (and the beach bar) offer sunset view.

Great!

Nanette_H, Jun 2023
What a fun experience with our teen kids! Chef Chris was so fun and we learned some great cooking tips. Great experience!

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thank you a lot for your review Nanette. We are glad that you enjoyed your class!

Beautiful Winery Hosts Cooking Class - Food was amazing!!

Patricia_H, Jun 2023
The cooking class was really great, enjoyed the chef, the food and the people taking the class. We signed up for the cooking lesson and cocktails on the beach. There was no beach, we were in the middle of the island (beautiful location just not what we expected) afterwards, the driver was going to take myself and my friend only for cocktails on the beach. I found out each of the guests taking the class signed up for a different experience .... so no one was going with us for the cocktails on the beach so we asked for the driver to drop us in FIRA. Just wasn't what I felt we signed up for... that is what was a little disappointing.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thank you for your review Patricia. There are different options for this tour that include or not the beach bar visit. I am sorry for not being clear in the description that the tour takes place in two different locations.

Make cooking great again

Brett_M, Sep 2022
Fantastic and fun! We had a private cooking class with the most entertaining chef. We adored him and learned a few things! Then, enjoyed a dinner of all of our dishes. Incredible evening with extra attention to details; like a private look at the wine rooms.

Response from Host, Sep 2022

Thank you for your feedback Brett. Enjoy the rest of your stay!!

A must-do culinary experience in Santorini!

Elizabeth_M, Apr 2022
This was an absolute must-do! The organizers were punctual, super friendly, and accommodating, and the food was spectacular. If you're looking for an opportunity to try all the most storied foods of Santorini, this is it. The chef explained the history of each dish and ingredient, and we all had a chance to get our hands messy with prep and cooking. Be sure to come when you're hungry.. there's a TON of food! Really exceptional time.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Thank you a lot !! You were the first who did this tour and we are very happy you liked it !! Have a nice stay in Greece !!
