Magical

Katharina_K, May 2024

Such a great experience! Doing your own traditional pottery to bring back home with you is the best souvenir you could ever buy. The garden and the whole setup were magical. Want to come back!

Authentic workshop- totally recommended

Saskia_H, Sep 2023

Very nice experience in a great atmosphere. The studio is located in a beautiful area - we created two pieces each which will be amazing memories! Many thanks again.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thank you very much for your nice review Saskia! I am happy that you had a nice experience at my studio. My best regards!

Amazing!!

Mira_R, Aug 2023

It was an absolutely amazing experience. You have to do this while in Zante. Dionysia was so lovely and talented teacher. The place where the course is held is so beautiful. You also get to take home the best souveniers from this class. Just remember it takes 3 days before the ceramics are ready cause they have dry and go in an owen or first, then you can go and pick them up. Or they can send it to your hotel by little extra cost.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you very much for your nice review! I am happy that you had a nice experience at my studio. My best regards!

Pottery experience

Emma_A, Jun 2023

Awesome experience! A beautiful location, lovely hosts and a very interesting class too! Would recommend hiring a car to get there and taking in the beautiful countryside..

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thank you very much for your nice review Emma! My best regards!

Will never forget

Aleksandra_S, May 2023

Absolutely fantastic experience! Beautiful outdoor space where we learnt how to make our very own ceramic creations. It was our first time working with clay and we learnt so much! Thank you very much for being so attentive and kind! Would recommend 10/10 🐢

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you very much for your great review Aleksandra! My best regards!

A great experience!

darrell_b, May 2023

Dionysia loves sharing her love for Ceramic making and has the patience to work with anyone who wants to learn! Her studio is located on land that has been in her family for 200 years. This Is truly a personal experience and not a big commercial thing.

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you very much for your nice review! My best regards!

Great experience

marie_p, Apr 2023

Lovely, relaxing and fun experience. The studio is set in beautiful grounds and the tutor was friendly and her studio has amazing works in it. We made 2 items and will go back to collect them. They are fired and glazed for you. Highly recommend!

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you very much for your nice review Marie! My best regards!

Glad it did it

Alex_W, Apr 2023

Really fun and relaxed activity, and an excellent host. I don't drive so I walked. About an hour's walk from Zante town if you don't mind trekking! Easy to find. Was able to make arrangements to receive my creations two days later, before my flight home

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thank you very much for your nice review Alex! My best regards!

Excellent.

Sheila_H, Apr 2023

I would recommend this to anyone looking for some calm and peace. I was lucky to be in my own. It was so relaxing, granted I made an odd shaped boat however, I did it having never touched clay before. This experience for me was not how my finished effort turned out but the experience of sitting in the sunshine with an amazing lady who is kind, caring and a fantastic, talented artist. The home made lemonade with lemons picked off the tree was an added bonus!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thank you so much Sheila for your nice review! See you on Friday for another ceramic making experience! My best regards!

An amazing experience!

Frances_M, Nov 2022

We had an amazing time! the owner of the shop she was lovely, welcoming and had a laugh with us whilst she taught us how to make a clay turtle and bowl. It was a great way to relax! the perfect activity after a busy week of activities in laganas.The outside area where we spent our time had a beautiful peaceful view which added to the experience. We also got to spend time looking around her shop before and after and we’re able to purchase some of her works of art :) When asking about how we could pick up our clays in time for our return flight, she went above and beyond to help us take them home! Which we all have luckily been able to get home in one piece :D An experience all 5 of us absolutely enjoyed and would recommend!

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Thank you very nuch for your nice 5star review! I had great time working with you. My best regards!

Gem of a find

Stephen_C, Jun 2022

The ambience, friendliness of the proprietor and the amazing hands on experience , we actualy made 2 items ourselves , which are being delivered to our hotel in a few days. The surroundings are gorgeous. Created a beautiful memory of Zakynthos for us, location of ceramic workshop, true Zante

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Thank you so much for your nice review! I always try to offer to visitors the best experience and the opportunity to express their creativity with clay. My best regards!

Great!

Eva_T, Aug 2021

Superfun experience! It was very relaxing to work with the clay and make something yourself. We still had to pay for shipping the turtles to us unfortunatly, so be prepared to spend an extra 10 euros

Response from Host, Sep 2021

Thank you for your nice review! I also had great time helping you to create your ceramic ...memories from your holidays in Zakynthos. Next time keep in mind to book the lesson in the first days of your holidays, in order not to pay the shipping cost. In case you stay close I also can bring the ceramics to your hotel. Best regards!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE

797arielr, Jul 2019

Avouri was an amazing teacher and lovely person. Not only did I learn how to make a beautiful piece of art but I also got to view her beautiful collection of ceramics and when my piece was finished, after 3 days, she drove it to me because I had no car! Thank you so much! It is beautiful

Response from Host, Jul 2019

Thank you again for your nice review! I wish you the best!

Hidden gem

Olivia_C, Jun 2019

Most wonderful 2 hours....Dionysia is a fabulous host & teacher. We thoroughly enjoyed our Ceramics making experience and the homemade Lemonade was delicious. Dionysia’s shop is full of unique pieces which make for lovely gifts. A very worthwhile excursion. Thank you.

Response from Host, Jun 2019

Olivia, Thank you very much for your nice review. Best regards!

I booked this activity on a whim...

Jerri A, May 2017

I booked this activity on a whim, just because I'm not doing anything on Sunday. Turned out to be among the best activities I've done so far in the island : Definitely a must-try during your holiday. Dionysia is nice and will really have you going at it quickly. For people who'd like to get their hands dirty, don't look farther - book this! :D
