I'm not artistic and have never carved marble before... so was thrilled to have learnt more about marble carving and to have been able to produce something half decent! The instructors were lovely and super helpful, this is a real hands on experience. We were taking quite a long time (due to inexperience) and they were so patient and let us finish our pieces. It's an usual activity, which is why it was so good to do it. We did it at the start of a two week holiday travelling around the ancient sites of Greece, and my word did it give us an appreciation for all the marbles we saw on our travels after that. The piece is ready to take home after the class, just be mindful of how heavy the piece of marble you choose to carve is if you are travelling around afterwards and have to carry it everywhere!

It was a very educational and guided experience. They were very thorough in explaining the history of marble carving, the tools and materials used. Asked questions that got us thinking, showed us inspiration and an example video. They were very kind, helpful, and attentive. It was a great experience, I enjoyed myself so much.
Highly recommend for experiencing Athens from a different perspective.

The best part of our trip in Athens (and this is coming from an Archaeologist). We had a wonderful, fun and fascinating experience with Dimitrius. Who has decades of experience, it was an honor to learn from him. We learnt about marble, and how to carve it, and mostly about the connection between working with your hands, expressing yourself and emotional healing. Highly recommended!
Such a fun experience....

This was a great hidden gem! Spent part of the time looking at examples of projects, art discussion, history of carving among the Greek islands, and then crafting your own piece. Instructors were helpful and creative. Plenty of marble supplies and tools. We loved it, though only one of us is traditionally crafty. Would highly recommend!

We booked this experience looking for something unique and meaningful. We are so glad we did this experience before we visited the Acropolis. It gave us a whole new appreciation for the incredible art presented there. Just carving a simple slab is nothing compared to the tons and tons of marble carved to create these amazing monuments. The instructors were absolutely incredible. They were so knowledgeable, friendly, and encouraging. Even though we were complete beginners with no experience, they assured us our art was perfect. Highly, highly recommend this experience if you are looking to learn something new and appreciate Ancient Greek culture.
Unique and fun...

Dmitrus & Dmitri were both very kind and helpful. Dmitrus was very hands on and skillful, you’d be amazed. Just a tip to keep your designs simple and workable within 2hrs, also bring a mask if you don’t want to sneeze with the dust particles

If you’re looking for something truly unique and meaningful to do in Athens, this marble carving workshop is it!!! From start to finish, the experience was incredibly enriching, hands-on, and deeply inspiring. The instructors were not only experts in their craft but also incredibly kind, patient, and creative. They struck the perfect balance between teaching technique and encouraging personal expression. You could really feel their passion—for marble, for history, and for helping others connect with it. What I didn’t expect was just how meditative and fulfilling the process would be. Working with authentic tools and real marble gave us such a deep appreciation for ancient artisans and the incredible effort behind the masterpieces in Athens. It’s one thing to admire Greek sculpture—it’s another to feel the marble in your own hands. By the end, my teens and I had created something we were truly proud of, and more importantly, walked away with a whole new perspective on Greek art and culture. My 13 year old said it was his favorite thing we did in Athens. This workshop goes beyond tourism—it’s a connection to heritage, creativity, and craftsmanship. Highly, highly recommend to anyone curious, creative, or just wanting to experience Athens in a totally memorable way!
