Fabulous day! - There was nothing about this day we didn’t love! Panos made sure he had planned a day that was interesting, fun, enjoyable and informative. Our cooking lesson was fantastic - easy enough for us to remember but ensured we leant new skills. The wine tasting at Piperis Winery was also really enjoyable - we would have bought SO much more wine if we had room in our suitcases! A quality winery. And then there was lunch in the taverna which was delicious , with wine and dessert. We could not have asked for a better day and we felt like we had seen so much of Rhodes at the end of the day. Thank you Panos!!

Great Greek Food and more - The trip was very well organised. The pickup was done on time as suggested. This is a really good tour to do if you'd like to experience the Greek culture and food. The tour guide was amazing from beginning to end. Definitely value for money!

Don’t miss out on this fun foodie experience - We had a fantastic time, picked up on time from our hotel by Pano and George who were friendly and knowledgeable. They drove us to a traditional Greek village and hosted a cooking experience, we then took a short walk to do some local wine tasting and then back to the taverna to eat what we had made plus fresh bread, pitta and a main dish, there was so much food and everything was delicious. Afterward we went for Greek coffee at another location and then headed back, it was a wonderful trip which we highly recommend.

Great day out in interesting village - Fantastic tour with Abbey and Panajoti through the landscape and small villages. The village of Appollonia is fantastic with herbs and fruit growing everywhere. Nice things in the Shop. The cooking lessons were fun and great to have the results later with a great lunch. The coffee shop was full of interesting things and the coffee good. A really great experience

Awesome authentic experience. - Panos was an excellent tour guide. We were in port on a cruise. One hour ride to the village was easy enough. Then a stroll thru the village showing off the gardens and scenery. Stopped at a women’s coop and a local winery. These were all authentic. No other tourists in sight. The cooking class was amazing as was the lunch that resulted. The winery too was small and local. Can’t say enough about this authentic Greek experience. Great communication and coordination. Would highly recommend
