Ikaria Longevity Cooking & Life Retreats with Diane Kochilas
Join me on the Greek island where people forget to die. Over a week you’ll cook, take peaceful, informative nature walks, forage, dance and eat the way Ikarians have for generations — the real secrets to a long, well-lived life.
No experience needed, just an appetite for good food and good company.

Tours & Classes
Greece, the Way I know It
Everyone shows you the postcard version of Greece. I’ll show you mine — the village tavernas, family kitchens, and backstreet markets I’ve cooked and traveled through for over 30 years.
On my small-group tours, you’ll cook alongside local producers and eat at tables most visitors never find. Spaces are limited, on purpose.
Athens Food Walks
Athens, One Bite at a Time
The neighborhoods, markets, and small kitchens I actually eat in — on foot, off any tourist map. Led with my son, Yiorgo.
