Cooking on Crete

You are at the right address for a cooking holiday in Crete. We organize several weeks a year to cook in Crete. Most cooking weeks are organized in the spring and after high season. Cooking on Crete is a great event. You can opt for a full cooking holiday, but it is also possible to book separate cooking excursions.

The Greek cook book of Zorbas Island: Here you find recipes from the Greek kitchen of Zorbas Island. All these different and healthy dishes you can now also prepare at home. Of course you can taste all the dishes during your holidays at Zorbas Island. We always use fresh (organic) local products for our Greek dishes. During the Greek cooking workshop we explain you more about the ingredients and the cooking of the Greek cuisine. On Crete we have particular dishes and we would like to share our secrets with you. Have fun cooking and kali oreksi.

Unknown Crete excursions: During this excursion we go with you to places that are not described in the usual tour guide of Crete. It’s a day full of culture (small villages, churches, monasteries, pottery, bronze caster etc.) and nature. We stop at different spots to have a look around, to have a coffee or lunch. We drive around and go for little walks. There are many different routes, so it’s always a selection of different spots.
