Naxos Traditional Cooking and Cheese Making Class at Dairy Farm

Spend a day of immersion in local food traditions, on a hilltop with breathtaking views of the sea and the fertile farmland beneath. Cook your own meal and taste the flavors you created, together.

At a charming family-run dairy, you will meet the farmers who will take a break from cultivating their garden and raising their animals with care, to show you how to prepare a signature Greek recipe, using fresh ingredients from their farm.

Get some hands-on local experience as your hosts guide you through the making of the iconic summer dish called “gemista”. While waiting for your meal to cook, your hosts will share the secrets of local cheesemaking methods, teaching you how to make an age-old cheese recipe, called “arseniko”.

The experience concludes with a relaxed feast, savoring the authentic tastes of Naxos and enjoying the warmth of local hospitality.
