Communication was poor...
Communication was poor from the start. Received confirmation for wrong time. Arrived at address by taxi. The address was incomplete. Fortunately, the driver stayed. Contacted Viator and refund was received.
Operator response
We’re sorry that your plans did not work out and that you were unable to join the workshop.
We exchanged several messages about your travel schedule and accommodated your request to move the workshop to the following morning. We also sent our address and a direct Google Maps link. Our team was at the studio at the agreed time and waited before starting the class with the other guests, but you did not attend.
We promptly accepted your refund request. We regret that we did not have the opportunity to welcome you and provide the sculpting experience. Clear communication and directions matter to us, so we wanted to share the arrangements we had made.

Such a Fun and Unique Experience
We had such a great time at the Athens: Sculpt Your Greek Masterpiece Workshop! I did this experience with my 25yo daughter and it was so much fun!!
Our instructor was incredibly patient and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. The group was small, which was perfect because we had plenty of time to work on our sculptures and get individual guidance when we needed it.
And the studio… WOW! It was such a cool and inspiring space and really added to the whole experience.
Whether you’re traveling with family, friends, or even solo, I highly recommend this workshop. It was hands on, unique, and something completely different from the typical sightseeing experience. We absolutely loved it!
Operator response
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a real pleasure to welcome you and your daughter to our Greek Sculpture Workshop in Athens. We’re delighted to hear that you had such a fun and memorable experience together!
We’re especially happy that you enjoyed the small group setting and the individual guidance. Our goal is to make the workshop both creative and accessible, whether you’re completely new to sculpting or simply looking for a unique way to connect with Ancient Greek art and culture.
And thank you for your kind words about our studio! We’re very proud of the atmosphere at Ancient Symposium and love seeing our guests become inspired by the space while creating their own Greek masterpiece.
It was wonderful having you both with us, and we hope your sculptures will always remind you of your time in Athens. Thank you for choosing us and for recommending our experience to other families, friends and solo travelers!
Warm regards,
Manos

This was such a unique...
This was such a unique experience and definitely something I wouldn’t have thought to do in Athens. What made it even more special was hearing about the generations of the family who have been involved in sculpting and art. You could really feel the history and passion behind the craft.
Mateo was a fantastic instructor. He was patient, encouraging, and made the experience fun regardless of your artistic ability. Not everyone in our group was naturally artistic, but everyone still had a great time and left with something they could be proud of.
It was also really cool learning about the family's work on Assassin’s Creed and seeing the connection between their traditional craftsmanship and modern entertainment.
And the wine cellar area was an unexpected surprise and added another layer to the experience. It was a really cool setting for something that felt both educational and hands-on.
If you're looking for something different from the typical Athens sightseeing experience, I highly recommend this. You get to learn about Greek art and craftsmanship, try sculpting yourself, hear some incredible family history, and have a genuinely fun experience along the way.
Operator response
Thank you so much, Dennis! We’re delighted that you enjoyed discovering our family’s generations of sculpture and art, as well as the connection between traditional craftsmanship and our work for Assassin’s Creed. Mateo will be very happy to know that his guidance helped everyone feel creative and proud of their sculptures. We’re also glad that the wine cellar and the atmosphere of Ancient Symposium made the experience even more memorable. Thank you for recommending this different and hands-on way to experience Greek art in Athens!

Highlight of the trip!!
This was one of the highlights of my trip to Athens. The pottery class was relaxed, fun, and welcoming from start to finish. We got to sculpt our own little heads, which was a really unique and creative experience, even for complete beginners.
The host was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the session. They took the time to explain each step, offered guidance whenever needed, and created a friendly atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable.
If you’re looking for a memorable, hands-on activity in Athens, I would highly recommend this pottery workshop. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Thank you for choosing to spend part of your time in Athens with us. We hope your sculpture will always remind you of your visit, and we would love to welcome you back to the Ancient Symposium for another creative experience in the future!

Thoroughly absorbing activity
Really interesting thing to do, I'm not experienced at all but managed to turn out a piece of clay sculpture to take home under the tutor's guidance. Great surroundings and a little explanation of the history and context before we began. The time passed very swiftly! Definitely recommend
Operator response
Thank you so much, Kirstie! We’re very happy that you enjoyed learning the historical context behind the workshop and creating your own clay sculpture, even without previous experience. It’s wonderful to hear that the time passed so quickly and that you enjoyed the surroundings and the guidance. We hope your handmade sculpture remains a special reminder of your visit to Athens!

Master artist, teacher, and guide!
This experience—learning how to make a Hermes mask with Manos, a master artist—was one of the highlights of our trip to Greece. It was fun, funny, relaxing, and memorable, and it resulted in our best souvenirs. We all discovered that we need more art-making in our lives. And I am not only referring to the Hermes masks we made, but also the original jewelry we bought there as well. I HIGHLY recommend this for your next trip to Athens! Ευχαριστώ, Μανος!
Operator response
Justin you are amazing thank you so much and I hope to see you again in the future.

Best Activity in all of Athens
Manos is a kind and patient teacher and very talented. In the first minutes you get to see how ancients used the pottery you see in all the museums and how they made wine. Then, in the simplest to follow classes I have ever taken, I sculpted a delightful little Greek god-ish likeness. Anyone, even the art timid people, can be happy getting their hands in clay (from Crete) and making a new treasure. It's the most relaxing and fulfilling activity to participate in... Learning one of the most ancient of all arts from human history, from one of the masters. ❤️
