Wonderful wine tour!

Published on Sep, 2024

We ended up lucking out and getting a private tour. Petros was very knowledgeable and great to talk to, and really knew his stuff as a trained chef. We went to 2 wineries with very different styles and vibes, and then went to a small restaurant where we were treated to a great lunch. There was also a store in the restaurant where we could sample oils and vinegars. The wine region is very close to Heraklion and it was a very enjoyable day.

More than advertised

Published on Jun, 2024

Petras was a true gourmand and wine connoisseur who provided a running commentary on his experiences as a chef, love of all things Cretan and supplied extra details about olive oil and wine that we hadn’t learned in our other tasting experiences. We were with one other couple, so a relaxed, friendly pace. It’s a true joy to have your guide so passionate about his adopted home and willing to share, making for a special experience.

Exceptional Tour!

Exceptional tour with an amazingly knowledgeable guide! We were able to taste and learn about Cretan wines and olive oils in a relaxed, personalized way. Lunch at Bakaliko along with wine pairings made for a delicious memorable day. Highly recommend this tour!

Full day of olive oil, wine, good food and a knowledgeable, passionate tour guide!
