What You’ll Experience

This tour is a unique experience of traditional Cretan life. After a scenic countryside drive, you will visit a typical village farm, where a Cretan family will welcome you to their house and yard and show you around their farm, including a seasonal garden with vegetables and aromatic herbs, an olive grove, a citrus orchard, a vineyard and wine cellar, and a chicken coop. Enjoy a hands-on cooking class, where you will prepare at least 6 different recipes under the guidance of the family. The day will end with all the family and you as their guests enjoying your Cretan-style dinner, including the family’s homemade wine! Most products used in the class will be pure and organic from the farm’s garden. This is not a tourist but a slow-paced authentic experience shared with like-minded people from all over the world. It is operated by local Cretans in the English language. Special requests: Let us know if you’re vegetarian, vegan, lactose intolerant, or have any special requests.
