What you can expect
Experience Crete in a way few visitors ever get to know it.
This unique tour takes you deep into the island's pristine mountain landscapes – where tradition, nature, and genuine craftsmanship are still part of everyday life.
After being picked up directly from your hotel, your adventure begins with a scenic drive into the mountains. Along the way, we will stop at the most beautiful vantage points for unforgettable photos of the wild, unspoiled nature of Crete.
Our first stop is an extraordinary wood sculpture museum that impressively showcases the creativity and craft heritage of the region.
You will then arrive at a traditional mountain farm – the heart of this experience. Here you will immerse yourself in the real life of a Cretan shepherd.
You will get involved yourself:
Milk goats, discover the secrets of traditional cheese-making, and prepare typical Cretan dumplings with fresh ingredients.Together, we'll go out into nature and collect wild herbs and fresh vegetables – directly from the surrounding area, as has been done for generations.
To finish, you will enjoy an authentic meal on the farm, which includes the traditional Antikristo (lamb cooked over an open fire). Of course, delicious alternatives are available for vegetarians.
This tour combines nature, culture, cuisine and genuine encounters – an experience that goes far beyond a classic excursion.
Experience Crete as part of a centuries-old tradition.
