What to do and see in Chania Town, Crete: The Best Classes & Workshops

May 12, 2022 Hector Krause

Much of the old town district of Chania was developed around its harbor, which was built by the Venetians during the 14th century. Its lighthouse still proudly overlooks the Mediterranean. Here you’ll find several cinemas and historical attractions like the Archaeological Museum, a collection of Minoan and Roman artifacts that’s housed in the former Monastery of Saint Francis. Word nerds will especially enjoy the Museum of Typography.

My husband, 3 kids (aged 11,9 & 5) & I went for a family cooking class here. We had a tour of the lovely grounds with organic foods and free roaming chickens, rabbits, a cat and a dog. It was a truly idyllic experience. The owner & chef were a delight to sit and talk with. We enjoyed the authentic Cretan experience and getting off the tourist track for a day. The food we cooked was delicious and we enjoyed eating it at this beautiful place. I highly recommend this experience if you are visiting Crete.
