O que esperar

Creta é o berço da história do vinho, com sua autêntica vida no campo e variedades de uvas indígenas que datam dos antigos minoicos. Veta, uma de nossas guias locais, diz: "O que mais gosto em mostrar os visitantes neste passeio é que eles conhecem os produtores e fazendeiros locais e ouvem suas histórias". Ao longo do dia, você experimentará azeite de oliva produzido localmente, desfrutará de um almoço típico cretense e saboreará vinhos brancos e tintos regionais em uma vinícola premiada.

Começaremos nossa aventura culinária no produtor de azeite de oliva Kriti Allios, situado entre olivais ao sul de Heraclião. Aqui, faremos um tour pelas instalações e pelos olivais ao redor antes de uma sessão de degustação de azeite de oliva cretense. "O azeite de oliva é um alimento básico cretense desde os tempos minoicos. Arqueólogos encontraram evidências de que os minoicos, a civilização cretense mais antiga, usavam azeite de oliva para rituais, medicina e propósitos culinários", acrescenta Veta. Após a degustação, há um saboroso almoço fresco da fazenda para saborear com iguarias locais tradicionais.

Em seguida, faremos uma visita à vinícola familiar Titakis. Seus vinhos ganharam vários prêmios na última década, especialmente os tintos Kotsifali. Após um passeio pela propriedade e pelas áreas de produção de vinho, você degustará quatro vinhos diferentes, acompanhados de palitos de pão e azeitonas. Veta diz: "Sempre há uma garrafa na mesa de jantar nas casas cretenses - e muitas vezes será desta vinícola. A família Titakis tem um forte foco na produção de variedades locais raras."

Nat Geo Day Tour: Discover Cretan Farm Life

Small-scale, family-run farms are integral to the Mediterranean diet that Crete is so famous for. A local family will welcome you to their Mitato, a small farmhouse, where you'll be greeted with the genuine warmth of Cretan hospitality. Listen to the local farmer tell the intriguing tale of King Minoas who watched from his observatory, and alerted locals to incoming pirates. Greetings over, it's time for a hands-on bread-making lesson, learning the techniques for typical Cretan bread, made with wheat and barley flour. Then, witness their cheese-making skills using goat's milk from the farm. Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in, helping out with daily farm tasks like feeding the goats, pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and tending to the gardens. The adventure continues with a snail hunt over the mountainside, exclusive to National Geographic travellers, peeking under rocks, and among shrubs and flowers. As the day unfolds, your collected treasures, including snails, eggs, fruit, and vegetables, become the ingredients for lunch. Alongside the family, you'll prepare a feast of local delicacies, all made from the products of your day's work. Finish off the experience with a taste of Crete's spirit, Raki, and why not sing along to their traditional Cretan ‘Mantinades,' - traditional Cretan couplets that express sentiments about Cretan daily life.
