Learn how to harness the nutritious power of Crete’s plant life.

Learn how to harness the nutritious power of Crete’s plant life.

Whether you are visiting Crete for the first time, or you seek to explore a side of the island that you haven’t seen before - we are here for you. Join us on one of our thematic tours, or learn how to create natural products from local experts. We offer you pre-conceived excursions, but we also stand ready to plan a custom-made outing. All tours will be conducted by us with our comfortable electric van. Our tours are eco-friendly and support local communities and traditional handcrafts. We do not work through agencies, but use our own network to offer you cross-country experiences far removed from well-trodden paths.

You are looking for a night out dancing to Greek music at a traditional festival? You prefer picking wild herbs, going on a rabbit hunt, climbing the mountains or exploring the sea? Ever wondered how local pastries, cheese, olive oil, honey, pottery, fabrics or lyras are made? We’ll take you to removed mountain dwellings, traditional workshops, olive mills, dairies and farms. In winter, you can even help us harvest our olives - and take back a bottle of olive oil made from fruits you picked yourself.

The choice is yours.

Olive trees are a symbol of longevity, as they weather storms and droughts through the centuries. They even grow in saltwater. Your love is as strong as the olive tree? Then contact us about our wedding package. We have reserved the oldest and most beautiful tree in our grove as the location for your promise to each other. Invite your friends and family to this occasion and celebrate your love on our property. In the shadow of the olives and with a view of the endless sea, you will make memories that will remain with you ever after.

Of course, we are happy to host any other type of event - be it a birthday, a small company retreat or any other type of special occasion. Let us know and we will send you an individual offer.
