Highlights
Step into the heart of a sustainable Cretan olive farm run by a mother-and-daughter duo. Cook hands-on in an outdoor kitchen, learn traditional cooking secrets & sourch fresh ingredients straight from our garden. One of the highlight of our cooking experience is that as a working olive farm, we include a guided olive oil tasting as we feel it is important to share with you how to recognize a real extra virgin olive oil or how acidity, harvesting, and pressing affect quality and much more details. You'll also watch a short behind-the-scenes video showing how we harvest our olive trees —a true look into our family tradition. This tour is perfect for travelers who want to understand not only what Cretans cook — but how and why! Our aim is not just to teach you cooking techniques but to invite you into our family and way of living! We also take pride in customizing our cooking classes to accommodate your preferences and needs, whether it's a significant allergy or a vegetarian lifestyle.
