Authenticity and Intimacy combined with tastes & flavors.
This is not a commercial cooking class — it is a genuine farm-to-table experience hosted in a traditional Santorini cave farm, surrounded by gardens and volcanic soil.
Guests cook with vegetables grown on-site, taste wines from award-winning local wineries, and learn recipes rooted in generations of Santorinian tradition. Every ingredient has a story, and every dish connects directly to the island’s land and history.
Beyond the food and wine, what makes this experience unique is the personal connection. Sitting under the family tree, sharing heartfelt conversations about local life, traditions, and culture, guests become part of the story — not just observers.
The experience concludes with a walk through Megalochori’s hidden “kadounia” — narrow stone pathways forming a charming maze — offering a peaceful glimpse of authentic village life away from the crowds.
