What makes this shuttle service unique is the freedom to choose between two authentic Cretan producer experiences. Select either Lyrarakis Winery for a wine-focused visit or Politakis Olive Mill to discover the world of Cretan olive oil. Travellers choosing different options can share the journey from Heraklion, enjoy their selected venue and return together.

With a central meeting point, organised round-trip transportation and a small-group minivan, there is no need to rent a car, arrange an expensive taxi or worry about driving after a wine tasting.
