“Absolutely awesome way to spend a somewhat rainy day. Beautiful farm with lemons, olive, chestnut, orange and other trees. Very informative tour by the family sprinkled with humour and followed by an amazing home cooked farm to table meal! Possibly the best we had in Italy - including amazing bread, bruschetta, pasta puttanesca with home grown olives, grilled veg, cheese board, lemon tarts, and home made wine. Tasting and purchases followed. Highly highly recommend. Lastly lovely to see the wonderful goats, pigs and cats interact with our group.”

Lunch at the Olive mill was delicious and a great way to end the tour. Faih, the bus driver, was amazing how she navigated the bus around the hair pin bends on the mountains and through narrow village streets. The perfect way to see a special part of Crete without the stress of driving!”

There is a difficult walk to get to the cave of Zeus, it is worth it but would be difficult for anyone struggling with mobility. There is a wonderful green museum at this spot too, which could always be an alternative. The olive oil factory was also a great experience, and their products were delicious.”

Our guide Soula or Zoula (I’m sorry I don’t know the spelling) was so funny, lively, and knowledgeable. She was very engaging and didn’t just talk at us. It was a conversation and she really made you think about, contemplate, and imagine all the history we were seeing. Wouldn’t be able to get to all these places without our driver Nikolas. Very safe, smooth, and I was blown away by how easily he was able to navigate the mountain roads with our big bus. Overall price was reasonable…”
