What you can expect

Step into the shoes of a local shepherd for a day and enjoy an unforgettable cheese-making experience on the island of Kos. Begin your journey on a traditional farm in Kefalos, surrounded by trees and friendly goats.

Guided by a warm local host, learn how to milk the goats—an essential part of life in rural Kos. Then, under expert guidance, transform that fresh milk into authentic local cheese using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Stir, curdle, press, and shape your cheese with your own hands.

As your cheese sets, relax under the shade of trees and enjoy a farm-style tasting of your homemade cheese with fresh bread, olives, tomatoes, and a glass of local wine or fresh juice. Savour the flavours of the island while learning more about the history of cheese-making in the Dodecanese.

Finally, buy some of the homemade cheese —wrapped and ready—to enjoy later or share with friends.
