Crete Wine and Olive Oil Tour

Posted By : Kelli_P
Fabulous absolutely beautiful stunning phenomenal words can’t express how awesome this trip was! Andreas (sp?) was amazing! Extremely knowledgeable, professional and smelled good 😝

The wines were great (reds) I’m not a white wine drinker and the snack Dourakis took the edge off (didn’t eat breakfast, too early to meet up). The first winery loved Elvis (that’s actually his name), he was personable, funny and knowledgeable of the olive oil and wines. Bought a bottle of wine and olive oil from the first winery and two bottles of wine from Dourakis. The Olive Oil Factory was very informative and the honey was delish and the olives were good (not an olive eater) but these were good a little salty but good.. Definitely recommend to do indulge in this adventure!

Andreas picked us up in a black air conditioner mini bus there were 3 other guests, however it holds more passengers. We first were taken to what is believed as the oldest olive tree in Crete.This was followed by our first olive tour and wine tasting with snacks, and was informed of the processes. We then went onto our last wine tour where we further tested wine with snacks. Our preferably snacks was the first venue. At both establishments you have an opportunity to buy products. Lovely day and our guide was truly amazing.

The guide was a sommelier with a crazy amount of experience and made the wine tasting so fun and special! He is very personable and easy to listen to and get along with. We learned so much about the history of olive oil making and were practically olive oil and wine snobs by the end!! ;) Would recommend to anyone who wants to have a good day of good eats and great drinks.

Defintely time well spent. We met people that took a similar tour from our cruise ship and they did not have as good an experience as we did.

Learning about production of olive oil and wine was very interesting, and the presentations and tastings were great! Enjoyed the small group and the enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide/driver.

Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. It felt like he was a part of our group and not just someone paid to take us around.

I did this experience as a solo traveler, and it was absolutely incredible! I definitely recommend eating ahead of time because you will be trying 10 tasting wines. Super easy to get picked up for the tour too so you don’t have to worry about transportation! I HIGHLY recommend this experience for everybody!!!
