It was likely the Daily Telegraph that suggested a unique reason to tour each Greek island a few years ago. For Crete, the main lure was the cuisine. Local residents would undoubtedly concur, as while 90% of the Greek islands possess unrivaled allure, Crete adds to that appeal with the highest-grade food. Clearly, a culinary exploration of the city would be an excellent decision.
This journey will present you with the chance to savor an array of indigenous produce, supplied by outstanding Cretan producers. From the emblematic Raki / Tsikoudia, to the Cretan Bougatsa, the indigenous varieties of Cheese, olives, and even the finest confections.
To make this tour stand out, we’ve incorporated a trip to a local herb and products shop, (a hidden jewel among locals), as well as a tour of the premier traditional Cretan knife maker.
In sum, if a person is visiting Crete to immerse themselves in its genuine character, this tour is exactly what they need.
