Best Activity In The Greek Islands - The best activity we have done in the Greek Islands! We were greeted very warmly by the staff and received a delicious strawberry & lemon iced drink on arrival, as they prepared the kitchen. All the staff and the chef were incredibly polite and warm. The cooking was so much fun and the dish we cooked tasted amazing!! After the activity, we spent the remainder of the day at the hotel using their pool which was awesome because our accomodation did not have one. I give this activity a 10/10 and would recommend it to all ages.

Great experience! - We loved how Irene explained everything so well and coached us as we cut veggies for and assembled the moussaka. We also loved making and eating the tzatziki. Irene was very personable and answered questions about life on Amorgos. After the hour+ we spent cooking with her, the students sat on the lovely shaded terrace and enjoyed the food we had made. We had a very ery fun learning experience!

Ten out of ten - What a great class! Learned a lot of ins and outs for green cooking. Whether you are a top chef yourself or just enjoy cooking, this will be fun for you. Hospitality is top notch and the food is even better! We made moustaka and taziki - delicious. While we waited for it to finish, we sat by the beautiful pool deck and enjoyed a beverage at their bar! Also. Amazing view of Aegeli Bay. 10/10.
