Review of Naxos farm cooking, Kouros statue, live music, dancing, and a family meal in the green Flerio valley for $117.
“What a great afternoon!! A little hard to find at first - they are immediately right at the parking lot for the Kourus statue, along a rocky path, keep an eye out for their signs. But great atmosphere, lovely family, great tour of their farm/garden where we got to pick our veggies/fruit, fantastic day of traditional food, and recipes all sent to me afterwards. Enjoyed some traditional music and learnt a Greek dance! An absolutely fabulous afternoon!!”

Their sincere care for the land, food, and their guests was truly inspiring. This was one of the most authentic and meaningful experiences we had - an absolute must!”

Cook Alicante tapas with a local chef, enjoy a full dinner, sangria, and live Spanish guitar in a friendly two-hour evening class.
“Lovely activity. It was rather chilly though as the shutters were kept open so if the evening is cool take a jacket. The group was on the large size around 14 people so at times you were stood watching others cook rather than doing it all yourself. Food at the end was tasty, staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.”
Pick a city, a kind of room, or a night on the water.
