Experience an authentic adventure in Crete


Tour snapshot
Discover the “authentic Crete” that most tourists don’t see by joining us on an amazing road trip to Sfakia, Crete’s most remote and rugged region, home to the impressive White Mountains (being really white due to snow until early summer!)
Experience a 10-hour epic Crete tour, full of activities for the whole family, including hiking in deep gorges, hands-on cooking, sampling of local tastes, amazing storytelling and towering mountains, and endless blue sea views of unparalleled beauty.  

Local impact — How you help the local community by joining this tour:
  • You visit villages far from mass tourism and collaborate with the locals, supporting these small communities financially.
  • By sampling products that originate from the Cretan countryside, you promote 100% local, family-owned businesses such as a local cheese monger and a local botanist.
  • You visit a local family in their home where you learn about local products and traditional cooking techniques as you participate in a hands-on cooking class.
