Soap workshop with delicious moussaka! - Upon arrival Gerasimos and his son Stelios were already waiting for us. We were warmly received and received explanations and explanations of Greek village life. Then we got a clear explanation of how to make soap and got started. Meanwhile, a delicious moussaka was already simmering in the wood oven. When we finished making the olive/honey soap, a delicious meal was put on the table, prepared with local products. We really didn't want for anything and we had a very nice evening.

Lovely experience! Highly recommend! - Highly recommend if you are looking to spend some time with a warm and welcoming Greek family in their traditional home while sharing some delicious homemade food and learning about olives and how they have been integrated into the life of Greeks. We loved chatting and learning with Gerasimo, Tina, and Stelios. It was our first time in Greece and one of the first things we did... We came away feeling like we had made some Greek family friends. Great experience and even have soaps to remember it by!
