What to expect

Join the local guides to comfortably explore part of Crete's mainland, inaccessible to buses or minivans.Early in the morning, visit the 3000/5000-year-old olive tree. You'll reach the oil mill and winery in Anoskeli, where professional sommeliers and wine and olive oil producers will inform you about their products. This is where the most adventurous part of the tour begins: approaching to the White Mountains from Sebronas Gorge and driving along rough roads. The landscape here changes very quickly, and many goats and sheep are in the area year-round. You'll visit the entrance to Samaria Gorge, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, to enjoy lunch - consisting of traditional Cretan flavors with season salad, wine and dessert - at an altitude of 1200 m with magnificent views of the White Mountains and Mount Pachnes.On the way back you'll stop at 1000 m altitude to enjoy the view from above and take photos. Heading to Chania, you will observe the island's biodiversity and the beauty of nature: from the cypress forest, you will quickly reach the valley with lemon, orange, avocado and olive trees.

Pidimme tästä retkestä. Meidät noudettiin suoraan hotellilta maasturilla ja kyytiin tuli vielä toinen pariskunta. Retki tehtiin pienellä porukalla ja Dionysos (opas) kertoi meille paljon Kreetan historiasta ja nähtävyyksistä. Maistelun lisäksi kävimme mm katsomassa pientä tippukiviluolaa, vanhaa oliivipuuta ja ajoimme vuoristoteillä. Joka puolella oli upeat maisemat. Retki päätyi Samarian rotkon alkupäähän jossa söimme lounasta kauniissa vuoristomaisemissa. Ruoka oli yksinkertaista mutta hyvää.

The overall experience was great, we loved the visit to the oldest olive tree and wine tasting very much. Lunch up in the mountains was delicious with an absolutely stunning view.

Would highly recommend this! Nasos (our guide) was so knowledgeable and very passionate about Crete. Really great value for money and the lunch up in the mountains was fantastic! A really great day that we won’t forget!
