This was hands down the best tour we have ever experienced. The vineyards and the wine tasting itself were fantastic - the views are incredible and the wines themselves were delicious. Our tour guide Angelo was enthusiastic, very friendly, funny and informative. Best of all, he was very approachable and you could tell he was truly passionate about wine. The cookery class was exceptional. The atmosphere and the whole experience were second to none. We really enjoyed how interactive it was whilst also learning new techniques and information about the local ingredients - all while drinking more wine and enjoying the fruits of our labours. Cannot recommend this tour enough and it was definitely a highlight of our visit to Santorini

We had an excellent time on our tour, it was kept very small and intimate and each winery we visited had a lovely variety of wines and ambiance; each unique. The cooking class was very fun, the best part was the recipes to take home! After all the cooking we were able to have a nice dinner of chef prepared creations that were the same as we made in the demo kitchen. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who love food and wines.

Wonderful time!

We had a great tour with our guide Giannis. The wine tastings were fun and educational. We were never rushed, and we enjoyed plenty of wine and snacks. The cooking class was a lot of fun, and in addition to tasting our food, we had a 3 course meal after in the restaurant. We had a great day out and never felt rushed. Highly recommend!
