What to expect

Hi, I’m Katerina! I was born and raised here on Naxos, and I love sharing my island through food and simple traditions. This experience is all about tasting, baking, and having fun together.

We’ll start with an olive oil tasting, where I’ll show you how to recognize the flavors and aromas of different Naxian oils. How we tell the difference between an extra virgin olive oil and a regular one? We will find out together. It’s relaxed, interactive, and perfect even if you’ve never done a tasting before.

Then we’ll roll up our sleeves and bake some delicious and easy olive bread using my grandmother’s recipe — something I grew up with and still make at home today. You’ll get hands-on, learn the steps, and of course, enjoy the smell of freshly baked bread.

I keep my groups small so the atmosphere feels personal and friendly, more like cooking with a local friend than joining a big tour. By the end, you’ll have tasted Naxos in the most authentic way — through its olive oil, bread, and stories.
