Customer Reviews
The experience was really nice, the teacher was great and with a lot of patience and good teaching skills. We did not see the time going and we are really happy about this experience. - Nassima l., France
We had the best time booking our niche experiences with The Travelporter. My boys and I loved the Greek souvenir ceramic class! The instructor was lovely, patient and we didn’t feel rushed. It was a bonding and creative experience as a family! - Anjali N, Germany
"This was one of the best activities we have ever done on vacation. We have been to Athens many times, seen all the museums and shopping, which we love and return many times to see. But this class gave us an opportunity to experience a side of Greece which we have never found before. It was a quiet escape from the noise to explore art with local residents.” - Travis, Hawaii
"My friend and I attended this amazing opportunity and had an brilliant time crafting a pot and a figurine out of clay. Catherine led us through the steps of preparing the clay, forming our objects and decorating them in a very worthwhile 2.5 hours. We would fully recommend this activity to anyone else travelling to Athens!” - Bronte, Australia
"My wife attended this workshop together with our 9-year-old son. They had a great time; expect to meet lovely locals, kind and very friendly hosts, who know very well their work. You should try this experience when in Athens! Highly recommended!” - Claudiu, Romania
“It was fun it is very easy try it out!” - Jordin, Canada
