What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the Ecclesiastical Museum Parga, calling it a 'best experience' and a 'highlight'. The guided tours, especially the olive oil and wine tastings, are highly educational, entertaining, and fun. The cooking workshops are particularly praised for their hands-on nature and fresh ingredients. The affordability of tastings and purchasable products is a significant plus.
"The best experience in Parga! Never been to a wine tasting before but this was very educational, entertaining and fun. Our host Mrs Kassiani is very positive and professional spreading her knowledge about wine to the guest as well as clues in order to identify notes of each wine and she also informed us about food and wine pairing giving us food ideas for each option! Would definitely recommend for a fun experience! Additionally each wine out of the six that we tasted was also available to purchase at a very reasonable and affordable price which was a plus after all those delicious wines tasted!
Also after the wine tasting go their sister chain restaurant called Aegis in order to continue in a sense the food of the wine tasting course!"
