Phenomenal - you’ll never look at olive oil the same way again
A wonderful experience. You will learn more about olive oil in one hour than you have learned in your lifetime. You will leave being able to identify real EVOO from what’s in most grocery stores (spoiler alert - don’t trust the labels if you live in the US). Anita is a knowledgeable and engaging instructor, full of fascinating facts and insights. A fantastic way to bring a bit of Greece home with you.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much! It was a pleasure having you with us, and I am happy that you will never look at olive oil the same way again! Life will be more tasty from now on!

An Olive Oil Tasting That Changed the Way I Buy, Use, and Smell Olive Oil Forever
Write a good headline for this review: My husband and I signed up for Anita Zachou’s 2-hour olive oil tasting seminar. I could focus this review on how beautifully she presented us with 8 olive oils for tasting. Or, I could talk about her informative and personalized presentation. I could even spend this whole review describing her passion and phd-level knowledge. However, I want to speak about how she permanently changed my perspective on olive oil: how to buy it, how to use it, and how to tell definitely of it is truly extra virgin olive oil. It is something so different to experience on Mykonos. My biggest takeaway you ask? All the olive oil I have been using at home is rancid. I thought that that was the natural smell of olive oil—it is not, my friend! Anita holds her seminar in Pili Beach restaurant and it is a beautiful setting. I highly recommend this!

Amazing!
This is one of the best experiences me and my friend had during our stay in Mykonos! Anita is such an intelligent and kind individual it would be impossible not to enjoy your time with her. We had no experience with olive oil tasting and left this 2 hour experience with more knowledge than we could have hoped for. It is clear that Anita has a serious passion for what she does and it is incredibly contagious, I will never look at EVOO the same way (thankfully!). Beyond blessed to meet Anita and experience this wonderful course! If you have the time you should definitely try this amazing experience!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your nice words!! It was great having you with us and sharing knowledge and passion for EVOO!!!

Very informative and engaging
Anita was very friendly and knowledgeable! Our family really enjoyed tasting and learning about the various olive oils. And we now know how to select those that are the finest quality!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much! It was great meeting you all!!

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mykonos.
How much does Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert cost?
+
Prices start at $150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mykonos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mykonos is not rushed.
Is Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 32 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mykonos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mykonos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mykonos and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best Mykonos Olive Oil Tasting - Learn from a world-famous Expert start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mykonos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mykonos?
+
On Outty we rank every Mykonos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tour and Wine Tasting in Mykonian Land, Catamaran Day & Sunset Cruises with meals Drinks and transportation, Local Tour with Cruise/Hotel Pick-Up(Small Group or Private). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mykonos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mykonos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
