- alibrygotta756 contributionsFun cooking class, limited market tourReally fun cooking class. The dishes we made were perfectly representative of traditional Greek cuisine, and delicious! I was disappointed with the market tour. It was quite rushed and the guide didn’t even know which fruits and veggies were in season. Also, he pointed out the spice area, but we weren’t permitted to visit. Also, the class went quite later than advertised.Visited September 2023Traveled soloWritten September 21, 2023

We took a tour of the nearby market before making several traditional greek dishes. Vasia was funny, entertaining and did a great job walking us through the recipes.Visited September 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten September 25, 2023
- NicJTravel6 contributionsWonderful Greek Cooking ExperienceGreat instructor, classmates, & food. The trip to the market at the beginning wasn’t needed since we didn’t buy our cooking ingredients during that market visit—they were already purchased/picked-up ahead of time. I suggest getting straight to the cooking. Highly recommend the class & experience though.👍Written October 12, 2023
- catherinebourisSydney, Australia6 contributionsUnforgettable experience!I had a fantastic time at The Greek Kitchen! Thanasis was an excellent and engaging teacher and I learned a lot. It was very hands on and enjoying the fruits of our labour at the end was a highlight! I’ll definitely be recommending this experience to friends visiting Athens in the future.Visited January 2024Traveled soloWritten January 16, 2024
- Ben P28 contributionsA must do when in AthensIf you’re planning a trip to Athens, make sure to include this on your to-do list. Vasia is a fantastic host, sharing stories and insights about the secrets to Greek cookery while participants have a hands on experience preparing some fantastic food. The market tour is great and you will have lots of laughs along the way.Visited January 2024Traveled with familyWritten January 18, 2024
- TantalikaFort Lauderdale, Florida209 contributionsSuch a memorable experienceOur experience with The Greek Kitchen was amazing. Wonderful menu and great kitchen tips. My husband, who was initially skeptical and only agreed because “Happy wife - happy life” throughly enjoyed himself. He said it was a great balance to all the nonstop sightseeing. Also the food was incredible. Thank you so much for the lovely time!Visited April 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten April 8, 2024
- Amy WChampaign, Illinois1 contributionTraditional Dishes Prepared by Yours Truly - Yum!This was a fun activity for the whole family. We prepared several dishes and loved the use of greek music to keep the activity moving within the time frame of the class. My only issue is that we signed up for the tour that included a visit to the central market, but the market was not part of our experience - not sure what happened there. However, we very much enjoyed the class itself and eating the food we prepared.Visited August 2024Traveled with familyWritten August 11, 2024

Such a lovely way to spend the morning! Our instructor was both informative and entertaining. I especially enjoyed the walk through the market and how simple everything was to make - all the food was flavorful and satisfying, I will definitely use the recipes at home. 100% recommend! I went alone and the people in my group were all very friendly, I think everyone had a wonderful time!

My daughter and I enjoyed participating in the Traditional Greek Cooking Class. The staff was amazing and went out of their way to accommodate my need to be gluten free. We had a wonderful time learning new dishes, cooking together and meeting new people. I will do this again on my next trip to Athens.

How long was the walking portion of the tour? Do you spend most of the time walking around and then for brunch you just linger at the restaurant for as long as you want? Or is the walking for about an hour and then eating time for about an hour as well? Thank you!
Written May 19, 2017
Hello!
The food walking tour in the market area involves around 2.5 hours of walking to the various places for tastings. Then we head back to the cooking studio for around an hour for some relaxation and more eating!

What did you eat after brunch tour? Is it included in the price?
Written March 14, 2017
Hi! During the tour we sample things at several places and do a small olive oil tasting then we return to The Greek Kitchen for a brunch of lots of the things we have picked up on the way on the tour. It's all seasonal so things change all the time but there is always plenty of food and all of it is included in the price!
