About This Activity

In a home kitchen or cooking school near the city center, a local chef guides you through making 4-5 classic Greek dishes from scratch — spanakopita (spinach pie), moussaka, Greek salad, tzatziki, and baklava for dessert. Classes often begin with a market walk to source fresh ingredients. You sit down to eat everything you cooked, paired with local wine. Typical cost €80-95 per person including food and wine.
