Overview

The day begins with a pickup from your Eye Travel guide in our minibus which we drive firstly up in the mountains to the vineyards of the winery. It is an amazing place surrounded by the vineyards. We start with a guided tour through the vineyards, barrels and an old wine press. Now it is time for the wine tasting where we try 6 different Cretan wines. Every wine guided with a professional explanation so you will really experience the full flavors.

After the wine tasting we go to a traditional Cretan restaurant where also the workers of the wine area eat and you will enjoy a traditional Cretan lunch with ... local wine.

We follow the mountain roads through the vineyards to the pottery where the owner shows us how to make pots. After it's your turn to give it a try. Also a perfect place to buy some small souvenirs at wholesale price.
