Experience Details

What sets this tour apart is its simple, heartfelt approach to Crete — not through the window of a bus, but through the eyes of locals, with a glass of raki in hand and the golden sun warming your back. Instead of crowded tourist traps and generic menus, we take you to real places: a working olive grove where the trees are older than your grandfather’s grandfather, a raki distillery where the cauldron still bubbles with tradition, and a sunset spot known only to shepherds and those who linger after the guidebooks close.


You won’t be herded from one stop to the next — this is a slow, sensory experience designed for those who want to sip, listen, taste, and breathe Crete. We blend stories of land and labor with flavors that aren’t printed on restaurant menus. It's a small-group, intimate evening where the sunset isn’t just a photo, but a shared memory — with olive oil on your fingers and laughter in your ears.

We continue to a local, family-run raki distillery nestled in the countryside. Discover the fiery spirit of Crete as we delve into the production of tsikoudia (raki), traditionally made in copper stills with reverence and pride.
