Join us for a delicious journey through Crete’s food and drinks!
We will take you to the best local spots, where you will taste fresh olive oil, strong raki, and rich Cretan wine.
Your day will end with a wonderful traditional meal. Your adventure starts at a beautiful olive farm. An expert will show you how olive oil is made, from picking the olives to pressing them for oil. Walk among the olive trees and enjoy a tasting of high-quality extra virgin olive oil, served with fresh bread and local herbs. Next, visit a traditional raki distillery to learn about Crete’s famous local drink. Watch how it is made in copper stills and learn why it is an important part of Cretan culture. You will get to taste different types of raki, including flavored ones, along with small local snacks. Then, explore a family-run winery. Walk through the vineyards and the wine cellar while discovering Crete’s unique grape varieties.
Enjoy a tasting of three special local wines and learn about the island’s winemaking traditions.
To finish your experience, enjoy an authentic Cretan meal in the charming village of Archanes.
