Embracing Greece one bite at a time - Kostas was an amazing guide, I learned not just about the meal, but also Greece, history, wine making, olive oil making. We spent time learning with Maria how to make an amazing meal with just a dab of olive oil... so full so happy and so wonderful.

Vineyards and country cooking in the beautiful foothills of the White Mountains - Truly memorable and delightful tour from a local perspective. Our guide was extremely well read and more a companion than just a tour guide

An amazing night which we will not forget. - Amazing tour, very informative, learnt about the history of Crete. Cooked delicious food and had a lovely wine tasting experience and mama taught us so much about Greek food and how to cook it. We enjoyed meeting people from all over the world, all sitting at a big table. Very special. We will definitely come back and recommend to our friends and family at home! Definitely not a tour to miss out on! Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ, Emily & Mollie 😊

Fantastic learning and group bonding experience - GS Tours was so helpful in planning excursions for our study abroad group. The Cretan cooking class was fantastic. They were open and willing to create a more custom experience for us after a couple of us did one of their guided tours the year prior. We cannot wait to schedule our next trip!
