Der er masser at se på denne udflugt til øen Spinalonga med dagens første færge
I besøger den venetianske fæstning og den tidligere spedalskhedskoloni på en guidet gåtur
Det er tid til at gå på opdagelse med egen tid i kystbyerne Elounda og Agios Nikolaos
Du smager på lækre, lokale smagsoplevelser ved en typisk kretensisk frokost på en lokal taverna
Din lokale specialistguide har et enestående kendskab til Kreta og dets befolkning

Det kan du forvente

Den lille ø Spinalonga ligger kun en kort hop væk fra Kreta, men et besøg her er som at rejse tilbage i tiden. Århundreder af historie lever i murene, der omkranser den. Se øen gennem en lokal borgers øjne på denne eksklusive heldagsrundtur, som også kommer til to kystbyer i Mirabello-bugten. Veta, en af vores guider, siger: "Du besøger den smukke fiskerby Elounda og kystbyen Agios Nikolaos. Du vil også prøve noget typisk kretensisk mad på en taverna".

Spinalonga har været mange ting i løbet af sin eksistens, bl.a. en venetiansk forpost og en osmannisk by. Den var endda en spedalskhedskoloni, hvilket førte til, at den blev døbt "Tårernes ø". Du vil gå en tur med vores lokale guide, som vil føre dig gennem smalle gyder med for længst forladte tagløse boliger og vise dig rundt i fæstningen og kolonien, som blev lukket i 1950'erne. Desuden kommer du før folkemængderne ved at ankomme tidligt med dagens første færge.

Senere sejler du tilbage via kystbyen Elounda. Du får lidt fri tid til at udforske i dit eget tempo. Svøm, stræk dig i solen eller se verden passere forbi på en af de mange familiedrevne barer ved havnefronten. Derefter går turen videre til en nærliggende taverna for at spise en lokal, velsmagende kretensisk frokost. Vi runder dagen af med et besøg i Agios Nikolaos, en chik kystby, der ligger i læ af to små øer.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable day which was a long 3hr journey both ways but that was our decision.. The guide was excellent and informative. The island tour was good and the visits to the 2 towns was brilliant. Very disappointed with the lunch. A very serious concern was that we and others were picked up originally by mini bus and went to meet the main coach. To get to the coach, we had to cross a VERY busy dual carriageway in the morning and evening. This was frightening !!!! Please sort.

Maria our guide was absolutely wonderful, she told us so much about the island & was very friendly. She really brought history to life. 20 mins by boat, Spinalonga is walkable but definitely not for wheelchairs. Lunch & free time at Elounda - set menu - 5 dishes to share for starters, then moussaka or veggie option of stuffed tomatoes and potato (which we had) all very tasty. Then on to agio nikolias another beautiful harbour town for shopping and relaxing with a quick ice cream. Fabulous day

The boat crew and guide were fine. The Island itself was ok. The travelling took too long as widespread hotels were included in the run. The stops at seaside villages were just there to encourage shopping and were of no interest to me. The reminder email from TUI stated that I should bring swimming gear, but there was no opportunity on the trip to use it, so carrying it all day was a waste of effort. The food at the lunch stop was good.

The guided tour was brilliant. Could have done with another hour in Ag Nikolaos though. By the time we walked from the parking place it was a 10 minute walk each way so we barely had time to see anything.

Mountains of Crete 4x4 sunset safari with dinner

Off-road adventures don't get more fun than this. On this evening tour, you'll buckle up for a thrilling ride through the Cretan mountains, taking in villages, landmarks and more. What's more, there'll be a traditional dinner at a local taverna waiting for you. Vaggelis, one of our local expert guides, says 'Lassithi Plateau was said to be the birthplace of Zeus, the king of the Greek gods. According to legend, his mother, Rhea, hid the newborn in a cave on the plateau to protect him from being devoured by his father. It's one of the best places in Crete to grab a bird's-eye view of the north'.It all starts the moment you hop aboard your 4x4 and head for the mountains. You'll stop by Aposelemis basin reservoir and ancient Roman aqueducts, before following the path to the village of Kastamonitsa. Here, you'll be greeted with a tipple of fiery raki. Vaggelis says, 'After the grape harvest, the leftover skins, seeds, and stems are fermented and then distilled to produce raki, a tradition that many Cretan families proudly maintain'.You'll continue along the Minoan path, taking in the wildlife and scenery while learning all about local mythology and history. You'll stop for a glass of sweet, sparkling wine and admire Lassithi Plateau, as well as its iconic views. And once you've built up an appetite, you'll head to a local taverna for a traditional Cretan-style dinner with unlimited wine. Finally, as night draws in, you'll head back down the mountain roads, taking in the moonlit coastline and the twinkling lights of towns and villages.

Crete food and wine-tasting with wine factory visit

Crete is the cradle of wine history, with its authentic country life and indigenous grape varieties dating far back to the ancient Minoans. Veta, one of our local guides, says ‘What I like most about showing visitors around on this tour is that they meet the local producers and farmers and hear their stories.' Over the course of the day, you'll taste locally produced olive oil, enjoy a typical Cretan lunch, and sip on regional whites and reds at an award-winning winery.We'll begin our culinary adventure at the Kriti Allios olive oil producer, set among olive groves to the south of Heraklion. Here we'll tour the facilities and surrounding groves before a Cretan olive oil tasting session. ‘Olive oil has been a Cretan staple since Minoan times. Archeologists have found evidence that the Minoans, the earliest Cretan civilization, used olive oil for rituals, medicine and culinary purposes,' adds Veta. After the tasting, there's a tasty farm fresh lunch to tuck into with traditional local delicacies.Next, we'll pay a visit to family-run Titakis Winery. Its wines have won multiple awards in the past decade, especially the Kotsifali reds. After a tour of the estate and the wine production areas, you'll taste four different wines, accompanied by breadsticks and olives. Veta says, ‘There's always a bottle on the dinner table in Cretan homes – and often it'll be from this winery. The Titakis family has a strong focus on the production of rare local varieties.'
