Qué te espera

Prepárese para una aventura en 4x4 que le llevará fuera de los caminos trillados. Explore los rincones rurales de Creta y sumérjase en la naturaleza mientras atraviesa las montañas por pistas de tierra. Descubra el corazón de Creta: su rica mitología, su variada flora y fauna y la fascinante vida local. Katerina, una de nuestras expertas guías locales, afirma: "Las arrugadas cumbres de Creta resuenan con historias de la mitología griega: Zeus, el dios griego responsable del trueno y el relámpago, nació en una cueva de las montañas de Creta, y fue aquí donde Teseo mató al minotauro".

Comenzaremos con un recorrido por senderos escénicos y olivares, pasando junto a reliquias antiguas a medida que ascendemos por los montes de Creta. A continuación nos detendremos en un pequeño pueblo donde podrá degustar raki y aceite de oliva con los lugareños. El aceite de oliva cretense es apreciado por su pureza y sabor, así como por su alto contenido en polifenoles y su baja acidez, que lo hacen muy saludable.

A partir de aquí, comienza la verdadera aventura todoterreno, ya que nos adentramos en las montañas y seguimos un antiguo sendero utilizado por los pastores para llegar a los rebaños en los pastos de verano. En las sencillas cabañas de los pastores, la leche fresca de cabra se utiliza para elaborar un sabroso queso casero. A continuación, visitaremos una taberna familiar para degustar un almuerzo típico local -también disponible una opción vegetariana- con vino ilimitado. Descubrirá otra cara de Creta con conductores profesionales e informados que le contarán todo sobre su isla, desde la vida local y la historia hasta la fauna y la cocina.

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. And once you've built up an appetite, you'll head to a local taverna for a traditional Cretan-style dinner with unlimited wine.

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.' Over the course of the day, you'll taste locally produced olive oil, enjoy a typical Cretan lunch, and sip on regional whites and reds at an award-winning winery.We'll begin our culinary adventure at the Kriti Allios olive oil producer, set among olive groves to the south of Heraklion. Here we'll tour the facilities and surrounding groves before a Cretan olive oil tasting session. ‘Olive oil has been a Cretan staple since Minoan times. Archeologists have found evidence that the Minoans, the earliest Cretan civilization, used olive oil for rituals, medicine and culinary purposes,' adds Veta. 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. Its wines have won multiple awards in the past decade, especially the Kotsifali reds. After a tour of the estate and the wine production areas, you'll taste four different wines, accompanied by breadsticks and olives. Veta says, ‘There's always a bottle on the dinner table in Cretan homes – and often it'll be from this winery. The Titakis family has a strong focus on the production of rare local varieties.'
