Experience Details
This experience is unique because it combines Greece's rich cultural heritage with luxury and a friendly, intimate atmosphere. Set in an elegant Athenian home adorned with authentic paintings, antiques, and vintage décor, guests are welcomed into a space where they can feel at home, like part of the family.
You’ll learn traditional Greek recipes from a professional cook and a passionate self-taught cook—authors of a popular e-cookbook on authentic Greek and island flavors. The focus on Greek island dishes, alongside recipes from other regions, creates a distinctive gastronomic experience.
