SOME comments from people who have joined our seminars over the years:

I really liked the mixture of cooking and sightseeing--a perfect balance. Aglaia and Costas are so friendly and welcoming too. The week was perfect, every detail was taken care of, well planned and managed. It is a trip I will always remember! (Rachel, ME, U.S.A.)

*****

We chose the program because it was an all round, food and culture experience, not a “chef” situation. I wanted a program that we would learn how people eat at home. (Lisa, MN, U.S.A.)

*****

The program was excellent. There was culture: tour of the temples, some integration with the local people, hands-on cooking experiences, tour of the three gardens, the olive press. There was team work between the couple hosting the week. The credibility factor was very high, I have one of the cookbooks and am starting to use it. The wine tasting and olive oil tasting were unexpected and lovely. (Olive, AB, Canada)

From all the communications ahead of time to the moment we stepped off the ferry you created a truly memorable vacation. Kea Artisanal was everything I had hoped it could be and much more. The cooking, long meals, wine, weather, settings, adventures around the island were stellar. But what made our time with you stand out was the true hospitality that both of you exude. (Beth, NC, U.S.A.)

I just wanted to express my appreciation for your keeping in contact with us through your newsletters. We think (and speak) often of the time we spent with you. Our visit to your home was, perhaps, our most enjoyable holiday. We prepare your recipes for ourselves and our friends and find great enjoyment in them. We continue to explore the Greek restaurants of New York City, but, I confess, we experience "homesickness" for Kea. (Howard, NY, U.S.A.)

*****

The cooking instruction was so fun and mostly the warmth that you both exude is so inviting, makes you feel so comfortable, welcome. (Karen, CA, U.S.A.)

*****

The cooking school provided focus for the first trip to Greece, also a chance to know people and learn culture and cuisine. It exceeded expectations in all ways! The flexibility and interpersonal style were unique. (Chet, GA, U.S.A.)

I thought that you put together a wonderful combination of activities. Your preparation, thoughtfulness and hospitality were wonderful. We would not have had such an enjoyable time without your assistance and planning. Your knowledge of the island and Greek tradition, culture and history were so great! Excellent guides and hosts! Thanks very much! (Renée, OH, U.S.A.)
