O que esperar

Aventuras off-road não ficam mais divertidas do que isso. Nesta excursão noturna, você vai se preparar para um passeio emocionante pelas montanhas de Creta, passando por vilas, pontos turísticos e muito mais. Além disso, haverá um jantar tradicional em uma taverna local esperando por você. Vaggelis, um dos nossos guias especialistas locais, diz que "o Planalto de Lassithi era considerado o local de nascimento de Zeus, o rei dos deuses gregos. Segundo a lenda, sua mãe, Rhea, escondeu o recém-nascido em uma caverna no planalto para protegê-lo de ser devorado por seu pai. É um dos melhores lugares em Creta para ter uma vista panorâmica do norte".

Tudo começa no momento em que você sobe a bordo do seu 4x4 e segue para as montanhas. Você vai parar no reservatório da bacia de Aposelemis e nos antigos aquedutos romanos, antes de seguir o caminho para a vila de Kastamonitsa. Aqui, você será recebido com uma bebida de raki ardente. Vaggelis diz: "Após a colheita da uva, as cascas, sementes e caules restantes são fermentados e então destilados para produzir raki, uma tradição que muitas famílias cretenses mantêm com orgulho".

Você continuará ao longo do caminho minoico, apreciando a vida selvagem e a paisagem enquanto aprende tudo sobre a mitologia e a história local. Você fará uma parada para uma taça de vinho doce e espumante e admirará o Planalto de Lassithi, bem como suas vistas icônicas. E depois que tiver criado um apetite, você irá para uma taverna local para um jantar tradicional no estilo cretense com vinho ilimitado. Finalmente, conforme a noite cai, você voltará pelas estradas da montanha, apreciando o litoral iluminado pela lua e as luzes cintilantes de cidades e vilas.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The river broadens into a lagoon which trickles behind the sweeping beach into the bright blue sea. You'll have plenty of free time to stretch out on the shore or take a dip before the return boat trip.Back at Damnoni, a typical Cretan lunch at a beachfront taverna will be waiting for you. After tucking into fresh local dishes, you'll have free time to relax on and around the beach before heading back to base.

Crete 4x4 Mount Psiloritis Tour with Typical Meze Lunch

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. You'll journey into the mountains to the Halepa Monastery from Rethymnon, venture off-road and stop to enjoy some typical meze. Georgios, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The Halepa Monastery is thought to be the oldest on Crete, dating from the mid-16th century. Not only is it a special, spiritual place, but it boasts bird's-eye views over the valley of Mylopotamos.' Passing through areas of lush green landscapes and traditional villages such as Milopotamos, the tour gets off to a panoramic start. We'll wind our way up the slopes of Mount Psiloritis to Halepa Monastery, which was in ruins before the restoration works finished in the year 2000. The ruined structure used to be a refuge for Cretan rebels during past civil wars, but now it is as peaceful as it is beautiful. As you continue your off-road adventure, your guide will deepen your understanding of the history and the traditions of the island, introduce you to the locals, and point out the wildlife of Crete. Stop to see an original shepherd's hut – known as 'Mitato' – and taste local honey at a producer. Tracing mountain tracks, keep an eye out for wildlife such as eagles and wild goats as you rumble through the countryside. And with an appetite worked up, you'll take a break to munch on traditional meze.

Private guided tour with Knossos Palace & Heraklion

The ancient Palace of Knossos is Crete's most popular attraction and for good reason – it's absolutely fascinating. Exclusively for you and your party, this private tour takes you to the island's most-prized archaeological gem as well as the Cretan capital, Heraklion. Georgios, one of our local guides, says, 'The best way to visit Knossos Palace is with a private group. This way, you'll have the palace to yourselves, and you'll see it intimately, skipping the long queues.'Built back in the Bronze Age, Knossos was the political and cultural hub of Minoan civilisation, and its palace was said to have been the site of the underground labyrinth that contained the Minotaur – fearsome a half-man, half-bull creature. As your guide explains the myths surrounding the palace and its kings, you'll discover treasures like the throne room and the royal apartments, as well as exclusive rooms designed only for small groups. What's more, your visit directly contributes to the upkeep of this UNESCO-listed palace.It's then time to head to Heraklion, Crete's capital. Georgios says, ‘You'll see some of the few remaining monuments built by the Venetians during their five centuries of rule, such as the famous lion fountain and the elegant Palladian-style loggia.' You'll then have free time to explore the buzzing capital. You could go shopping at the market, walk around the harbour walls or just kick back in a café – with our private tour, you have the freedom to choose.
