Aren’t we all in a constant search for new thrills and experiences? I know I am! But we all know that experiences can differ! Especially when it comes to tourism, they are truly endless.
Noticed that I used the word tourism? Doesn’t that give you vibes of something less personal, more commercial, streamlined, less enthusiastic, something that everyone experiences, at the end of the day? Well then….what about cooking in Nafplio? 😮
‘WOW, WHAT IS THAT?’, I hear you say 🤔… Well, I’m sure you know what cooking means (or maybe not, you’ll see what I mean after you actually DO the cooking in Nafplio!). But what about Nafplio indeed? As you can see on this very informative and straighforward online guide, Nafplio is the destination you never knew you had to go to! Everyone knows Greece, one of the most visited and beautiful countries in the world. But how many know one of its most beautiful cities?
I mean, we all love Mykonos and Santorini and we would all love visiting popular tourist destinations in high season, along with thousands of tourists… Don’t we? Regardless of that, you can’t even imagine what an experience of a lifetime will be, to not only visit one of the most beautiful little gems of the country but live an experience that will be tailor-made for you and only you (ok and your beloved ones, if you want!).
So come to Nafplio and get some of the best experiences of your life. You can easily become one with the soul of the old town, explore every romantic street, get inspired by every neoclassical building and every monument there is, or even see it from the eyes of the locals, through your beloved Grecopaths. After that, you can visit some really world-famous landmarks that are within arm’s reach of the town, like the capital citadel of one of the most important more-ancient-than-ancient civilizations ever existed or the best and most popular example of a fully functional and majestic ancient theatre.
However…what if you REALLY choose to have a unique experience that no tourist will ever have? What if you take the Grecopaths’ ‘Cooking in Nafplio’ experience? Come to explore a hidden picturesque village near the town, where time has really stopped. See the mythical mountain where the village is, dedicated to goddess Artemis. Drink the freshest water you will ever find, directly from the village fountain and walk up the narrow street to meet your two ‘teachers’, two wonderful grandmas (or yiayias, as called in Greek). Put your aprons on and learn how to cook some of the most classical and delicious recipes of the healthiest cuisine on planet Earth! 😉 After that, go for a stroll around the village and discover the remnants of the old watermills, while admiring the beautiful plane trees and the endless view, that will reach deep into your soul.
So what about the cooking class? Don’t worry even if you haven’t cooked ever before! The yiayias are not strict, despite their experience and perfection in everything they cook! You will unleash your full potential and become part of the village family! You will also see the reason why the Greeks are always so happy when sitting at the table! That’s because…you guessed it right; after the cooking class with the grandmas, you will have all the time in the world to relax and enjoy the fruit of your labor! You will have an unforgettable rewarding feast with what YOU cooked, as well as some more Greek delicacies for you!
