Beschreibung

Auf dieser Sonnenuntergangsafari verlassen Sie die touristischen Pfade in mehr als nur einer Hinsicht. In Ihrem Geländewagen folgen Sie malerischen Wegen und entdecken auf diese Art und Weise versteckte Landschaften, die nur wenige Besucher sehen. Machen Sie sich für Panoramablicke auf Rethymnon bereit und durchqueren Sie traditionelle Dörfer auf dem Weg zum Amari-Stausee. Eleni, eine unserer ortskundigen Tourguides, sagt: "Abseits der Küste sind die kretischen Traditionen noch sehr lebendig, und viele Menschen leben von der Landwirtschaft. Olivenhaine, Weinfelder und Zitrusfrüchte sind die wichtigsten Anbauprodukte - obwohl in der Zwischenzeit auch Avocados gerne auf unseren Höfen angebaut werden."

Nachdem Sie Rethymnon hinter sich gelassen haben, fahren Sie hinauf in die Berge. Es geht durch ruhige Bergdörfer wie Pigi, Adelle, Saint Dimitrios und Harkia und Sie tauchen die helle Landschaft gegen unbefestigte Offroad-Strecken, wilde Vegetation und beschauliche Ausblicke ein. Erleben Sie das wahre Kreta aus nächster Nähe und gewinnen Sie einen Einblick in das Erbe der Insel. Eleni fügt hinzu: "Kreta ist eine der wenigen Inseln Griechenlands, die auch ohne Tourismus eine autarke Wirtschaft hätten. Die Landwirtschaft ist hier immer noch ein sehr wichtiger Wirtschaftszweig."

Sie fahren weiter hinauf in die Hügel zu einem fantastischen Aussichtspunkt, von wo aus Sie den Blick von der Küste bis zu den Bergen schweifen lassen können und eine herrliche Aussicht auf den Amari-Stausee haben, der direkt unter Ihnen liegt. Einen schöneren Sonnenuntergang kann man sich nicht wünschen. Zum Ausklang Ihrer Tour besuchen Sie eine familiengeführte Taverne, wo Ihnen eine Auswahl an kretischen Meze-Spezialitäten und ein Glas Wein angeboten wird.

Mountains of Crete 4x4 sunset safari with dinner

Off-road adventures don't get more fun than this. On this evening tour, you'll buckle up for a thrilling ride through the Cretan mountains, taking in villages, landmarks and more. What's more, there'll be a traditional dinner at a local taverna waiting for you. Vaggelis, one of our local expert guides, says 'Lassithi Plateau was said to be the birthplace of Zeus, the king of the Greek gods. According to legend, his mother, Rhea, hid the newborn in a cave on the plateau to protect him from being devoured by his father. It's one of the best places in Crete to grab a bird's-eye view of the north'.It all starts the moment you hop aboard your 4x4 and head for the mountains. You'll stop by Aposelemis basin reservoir and ancient Roman aqueducts, before following the path to the village of Kastamonitsa. Here, you'll be greeted with a tipple of fiery raki. Vaggelis says, 'After the grape harvest, the leftover skins, seeds, and stems are fermented and then distilled to produce raki, a tradition that many Cretan families proudly maintain'.You'll continue along the Minoan path, taking in the wildlife and scenery while learning all about local mythology and history. You'll stop for a glass of sweet, sparkling wine and admire Lassithi Plateau, as well as its iconic views.

Crete food and wine tasting with wine factory visit

Crete is the cradle of wine history, with its authentic country life and indigenous grape varieties dating far back to the ancient Minoans. Veta, one of our local guides, says ‘What I like most about showing visitors around on this tour is that they meet the local producers and farmers and hear their stories.'

After the tasting, there's a tasty farm fresh lunch to tuck into with traditional local delicacies.Next, we'll pay a visit to family-run Titakis Winery.

Rethymnon 4x4 Sunset Safari with Dinner at a Traditional Taverna

This sunset safari takes you off the beaten track in more ways than one. You'll follow scenic trails in your off-roader to explore hidden landscapes that few visitors see. Get ready for panoramic views of Rethymnon as you traverse traditional villages on the way to the Amari Dam reservoir. Eleni, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Away from the coast, Cretan traditions are still strong, and many people make a living from the land. Olive groves, fields of vines and citrus orchards represent the most important crops – though avocados are now becoming a popular fruit on our farms.'Leaving Rethymnon, you'll soon be heading towards the hills. Rumbling through the tranquil hill villages of Pigi, Adelle, Saint Dimitrios and Harkia, we swap the bright lights for unpaved off-road routes, wild vegetation, and peaceful vistas. You'll get a close-up view of the real Crete, and gain insight into the heritage of the island. Eleni says, ‘Crete is one of the few islands in Greece that would still have a self-sufficient economy without tourism. Agriculture is still a very relevant industry here.'You'll climb further into the hills to a fabulous viewpoint where your gaze will sweep from the coast to the mountains, with a lovely view over Amari Dam reservoir just below. Sunset spots don't come much better than this. To round off your tour, you'll stop at a family-owned taverna, where you'll be able to try a platter of locally sourced Cretan meze specialities with a glass of wine.

Combining inland Crete's rugged landscapes and ancient villages with a visit to a typical shepherd's hut, this small group 4x4 tour is for those who are wild at heart.

Full-Day Crete wine tasting and 4x4 off-road tour

This full-day guided tour is all about getting to grips with a few of Crete's most popular local products, olive oil and wine. You'll learn how both are made, and you'll get to sample some for yourself, all while travelling between stops in the back of a 4x4. Ioannis, one of our expert local guides says “in my opinion, there's no better way to understand the culture of a destination than by meeting the people who make local produce. They know the area better than anyone, and the produce is a reflection of the culture.”You'll kick things off at the Terra Creta Olive Mill. Here, you'll see how olives are turned into oil before a tasting session. Then, you'll be welcomed into a boutique winery for a tour of the grounds and, of course, to sample the wines produced here. You'll learn about the different grape varieties, including some experimental wines made from rare grapes. Next, you'll continue to the village of Ano Vouves, home to an ancient olive tree – it's thought to be between 2,000 and 4,000 years old, but it still produces olives to this day.Afterwards, you'll set off on an off-road adventure in a 4x4 towards the mountain village of Sebronas. As you zoom through the gorge, you'll see pretty chapels, vineyards and olive groves – and you'll have time to snap a few photos along the way. Then, once you've worked up your appetite, you'll stop for lunch at a small village tavern, where you'll tuck into some traditional dishes.
