This is a private guided day tour in Crete that combines the Minoan civilization, mountain scenery and local food. It begins at Knossos Palace, then continues into the countryside of the Lasithi Plateau and its 15 villages.
Along the way, the tour passes old windmills and visits the Zeus Cave. It also stops at a traditional olive oil mill, where visitors can see how Cretan olive oil is made and taste fresh extra virgin olive oil.
You travel with a local guide. The stops are flexible, and the route includes lesser-known places away from the crowds.
