Athens: Classic Cooking Class with Market Visit and Wine - Starting at Athinas 36 and heading to the market

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,101 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $83Our pick

Cook classic Greek dishes, tour Athens Central Market, and share a homemade feast with wine in this friendly four-hour class.

“We had experienced this cooking class once before and loved it. Since we brought friends to Greece this time, we felt they would also enjoy and benefit from the whole experience. I believe that's exactly what happened. We shared it with a multinational group of wonderful folks from Canada, South Africa, Switzerland, Australia, and the US. The wonderful food we created and consumed together sure bridged that diverse group. Antonia and her team are simply efficient, knowledgeable, and so much fun to be with.”
