You will begin by shopping for fresh fruit and vegetables at an open fruit market, taking part in the way Greeks shop for daily produce. Along the way a professional chef will teach traditional recipes and show you how to cook them using the almost forgotten method of the wood‑fired oven. The cooking instruction is hands‑on and focuses on simple, authentic techniques.
After cooking, you will walk among the ruins of a family olive press and through an olive grove. An olive oil tasting is included, so you can sample local oils and learn about their flavours. Finally, you will sit down to a meal in a tranquil environment, enjoying the dishes you helped prepare and experiencing what it feels like to spend a day as part of a Greek family.
