This was one of the best travel experiences I have had. From the moment we arrived at their home, Mrs Chrisoula (aka Mom) and Eleni were incredibly hospitable and gracious. The recipes they taught us to make are simple and delicious. The tour of the farm was an excellent education and the explanation of the processes for making their olive oil and wine was interesting. I highly recommend this experience.

This experience was fantastic. The host has a beautiful property in a great part of Crete. Everything is fresh from the farm and luscious. It was a wonderful evening with an incredible meal and people. I could not have asked for anything better.
I plan to do this your again someday with the rest if my family. I highly recommend it.

We booked two experiences, a trip to Elafonisi and a cooking lesson. Both were really well organized, Eleni went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. We had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and recommend the experiences they offer! Thanks Eleni and team, you’re awesome!

Such an amazing way to spend a few hours in Crete! A warm welcome from the beginning from Elena who showed us around her family farm, olive grove, vines, animals, vegetables, fruits and herbs. We had such a laugh making her traditional recipes and ended up collecting wine from the cellar and all eating together. She couldn’t have been any more hospitable and genuine- thank you Elena and family for giving us such a special ‘taste of Crete’.

My wife and I had an incredible time learning how to cook some traditional Cretan meals with Eleni and her mother! All the dishes tasted fantastic, and we made homemade Dolmades, amongst some fillo pastry dessert, stuff peppers/tomatoes, and much more. It was a joy to get to see Eleni's family farm, too, and to taste some of her homemade wine (strong!) and Raki (also strong). Eleni was so personable, and we would highly recommend this tour!
We got picked up from a central location in Chania and had about a 40 minute bus ride to the farm. Do note that there is a bit of downtime during the cooking class, so if you're a bit more introspective (like my wife and I), you may have to make conversations with strangers. This isn't a bad thing -- we enjoyed the company -- but, you should just be aware that this is a pretty core part of the experience.
All in all, super amazing trip -- very unforgettable! And, Eleni sends out the recipes afterwards so you can continue to remake the great dishes.

Mrs. Eleni is a special person and we spent a delightful afternoon and learned to cook several dishes specific to Crete with her. If you come to Crete, you must try this experience.

We enjoyed a great evening cooking with our very hospitable host. The food was all locally sourced from the farm, so it could not have been more fresh. The recipes were simple but delicious. It was a great way of getting to know about Cretan culture and cuisine. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
