We spent there few hours and enjoy every minute???? Visit in spice garden was very interesting and guide demonstrated wide knowledge about plants . Cooking classes are still in our minds... Shall explaind all spices, rules and gave us opportunity to be real part of meal preparation- Finally all was so delicious that our stomaches almost exploded. At the end there was option to buy some spices, teas etc but without pressure that we have to buy something... Recommended place!

I visited the spice garden as part of an excursion arranged by my tour operator. The walk and talk through the garden was informative and interesting. We then had the chance of a free shoulder massage before visiting the shop if wished. I had a health problem which I discussed with the guide and he suggested a product which I am very happy to say has helped me and I hope to order more. I can highly recommend it.
