The full experience! Fun, educational, and delicious. - My wife and I took this class as part of our honeymoon and were blown away. We had such a wonderful time! Dionysia and her family were so welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. Best gyro I’ve had. They did a great job letting us get our hands dirty but also making sure we had fun in the process. 10/10 would recommend!

Delicious, Authentic, and Fun! - This experience has been one of the highlights of our trip. Everything was perfect. From the mi Ute we stepped out of the taxi we were warmly welcomed by the family. The class was hands on and we could customize our food according to our preferences. It was the best pita we have experienced had! So warm a d fluffy. We can’t wait to make them with our family. A highly recommended experience.

Awesome experience! - I was not excited when I was signed up to do a cooking class with my family while in Greece, but it ended up being one of my most favorite activities of our entire trip. Dionysia and her family were such gracious hosts, sharing their home, their wine, and so many stories about their family and culture. We made the most amazing gyros, everything from scratch, locally sourced; and we made great memories in the process. I’m back in the States and have ordered a vertical rotisserie so I can make gyros and share this experience with family and friends.

Gyros Cooking Lots of Fun - Our host/chief was delightful! She was entertaining, informative and you could tell that she loved what she was doing. We really loved her passion! We would highly recommend booking a cooking class with her. She is also going to provide the recipes via email.

We loved this class - We had such a great time doing this class. We chose the lunch option, and were picked up at our hotel and driven to the location. It felt like being in someone’s home, with a real family atmosphere. Dionysia is an absolute gem, and she and her husband Kostas and their beautiful son, made us feel very welcome. We sat around the kitchen island and dining table chatting up a storm while we learned how to make gyros, pita breads etc. once this was cooked we were able to see how wonderful it all tasted. This was followed by an equally delicious dessert. This family love what they do and it shows. We would highly recommend that you add this cooking class to your list of things to do in Athens. You won’t be disappointed.

A must experience! - This experience was incredible! It was in a great location, easy to get to and hands on experience. The host was extremely friendly knowledgeable and the ingredients are super fresh. You can instantly smell and taste the difference of freshness. Sun dried olives is a must!

Great fun cooking with our Greek cousin - This was a great experience and I definitely recommend it. We had a small group, just our family of four and one other couple. Dionysia made it a fun evening in a beautiful rooftop terrace setting. We seasoned and cooked the pork and chicken, made tsatziki and spicy feta spread, and then made pitas from scratch. The meat was finished cooking just as the pitas were done, and Dionysia provided french fries, oniions, and tomatoes to go with the pitas, meat, and spreads we had prepared. We finished the meal by making a Greek cheesecake dessert using Greek yogurt. The food was delicious and the conversation and atmosphere made a highlight of our vacation in Greece.
