The guides were absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable. The hike was easy and the refreshing swim at the end was simply perfect. Then we went to cook and it was so much fun, easy delicious dishes and my new favorite - tomato fritters. I can’t wait to cook that at home. Afterwards sharing a meal with the guides and other guests was fun and relaxed and the food served was absolutely delicious. We had a really wonderful time.

Sofia was an excellent guide & my husband and I truly enjoyed this experience. She was very knowledgeable...Trekking Hellas picked us up right by our Airbnb and made this a very easy, convenient, & fun experience. The highlights were meeting Mrs. Anna & her husband who operate The Good Heart restaurant & seeing them press wine & learn about traditional Greek cuisine. Sofia was a great translator- request her!!

The whole experience is great. It is very educational and fun to do. You will be swimming, hiking, learning, having pleasure with the whole experiance even if you just observe the cooking process. It is simple and enjoyable. Be hungry to enjoy the food.

Out of Atlantis

The most amazing day!! Our guide was so amazing: Greek, unique, full of knowledge and fun. I could not recommend this tour more highly. The hike was so easy, with plenty of culture and scenery thrown in. The cooking with Miss Ana was priceless; she was the most welcoming lady even with only being able to speak Greek, I have never been so ful (it feels like you’ve eaten Christmas lunch kinda full). I will be taking these recipes home and wowing the BBQ crowds. If you want a personalised tour, with swimming in the ocean, hiking and an authentic Greek cooking experience then this is the tour for you. Thank you so much to our guide, she was amazing!!

A wonderful experience!

It was a wonderful experience and highly recommended! Hike is what we would call moderate vs light. The food was delicious!

Highlight of our time in Santorini- beautiful hike, refreshing swim and delicious food!

Elizabeth_R, Jul 2021
My family of 7 loved this experience with Sebastian! It was my personal highlight of our trip to Greece. The hike was informative and beautiful to learn about Santorini agriculture and the beach shack and swim in the ocean were so refreshing after the hike! I recommend close-toed shoes for the hike and a change of clothes for the swimming. The best part was the cooking class, the instructor was authentic and delightful and the food was incredible. Sebastian was a wonderful guide, very enthusiastic and passionate!

Authentic and Tasty!

Kirsten_V, Jun 2021
Absolutely wonderful! Pick up was so easy, our guide Seb was a ton of fun to hang out with, the hike was beautiful and Seb was so engaging during it. We loved the swim in the Sea before cooking class. And the cooking class was so authentic and tasty with incredible views! I would 100% recommend!
