Windmills Of Lasithi Plateau - Visit the the stone-built windmills at Seli Ambelou, which are one of the most remarkable set of windmills that survive on Crete and are located at the Northern entrance of the Lasithi Plateau.
Krasi - Walk the cobblestoned streets and enjoy a refresing beverage under the 2400-year-old plane tree, also known as the Writers’ Tree where famous Greek writers and people of the Spirit would often sit under and seek inspiration.
Omalia Olive Press - The guest not only gets to see how olive oil is produced today, but also how it was produced in the era of low tech, which gave it the name “press” that we still use today. Trying different olive oils is also available at no extra cost.
The Palace of Knossos - Visit the Knosos Palace where Zeus’s son, Minoas, intertwined his name with the oldest civilization in Europe. This Bronze Age archaeological site was a major center of the Minoan civilization and is known for its association with the Greek myth of Theseus and the minotaur.
