Guided Lasithi Plateau road trip through monasteries, eco workshops, Krasi springs, and an olive mill, with optional Knossos and Zeus Cave.
“It was a great day trip! Our guide Soula was amazing and told us a lot about the history of all the places we visited. Our driver Nikos was very experienced and handled the narrow streets like a pro! We drove around the Lasithi Plateau and had some nice stops for pictures. The tour through the olive oil factory was also very interesting. There are two different tours, one including Knossos Palace and one without (check the description of the tours). We booked the one without but we were able to change it on the day and also go to the palace. It was great to go there with an…”

Meet farm animals and pick eggs, learn olive oil, then cook Naxian dishes over a wood-fire feast with local wine.
“This was an exceptional farm to table experience! My son had a wonderful time learning about all the farm animals, and how the olive trees, the olives get collected to make olive oil oil and how the family makes wine during the winter!! Then the cooking portion began and there were two other families that participated as well and it just was so much fun. Niko couldn't have been more kind and this could not have been a better experience. I highly recommend this for a wonderful experience.!”

“I tried adding photos, but then I could not continue. Not much of a farm based on USA standards, 2 cows, a donkey, a dozen goats, 2 dogs and some chickens. Less than an acre of grape vines. Friendly hosts, very knowledgeable about wine and good, dry wines to taste (full glasses, not just a sip).”

Shore excursion from Katakolon to Ancient Olympia, plus Klio’s Honey Farm and an indoor olive oil tasting and market visit.
“I can’t see enough about how great this tour was! The site of Olympia was amazing and Alena was an excellent guide. She made the whole site come to life. Klio’s Honey Farm was excellent too. I learned so much and felt like I had been in tied into Klio’s home for a chat. There is no better way to get a feel for the culture of a place. I would highly recommend!”
Private 7-hour Katakolon trip: Ancient Olympia, Klio’s honey farm, Magna Grecia tastings, Saint Andrew beach, port pickup.
“Best combo tour when on a cruise in Katakolon! We were able to see the Olympia ruins, an awesome Olive oil farm, and a family owner honey farm all in 1 seamless day! The tour guise picked us up right at the pier and returned up to the pier, only 100 feet from the boat. The Olive farm was so awesome and should not be missed! They let you try the different types of oil and are served a light lunch. The van was huge with plenty of room and it was private, just our group. Highly recommend this tour!”
Guided tour at Kleanthi Olive Farm in Crete, with olive grove walk, mill views (seasonal), and local delicacies tasting.
“It was a really fantastic tour for many reasons, here are a few highlights. It was easy to find the tour, where we were greeted by George who gave us a tour of the grove to start. George is enthusiastic, speaks fantastic English and is incredibly knowledgable about olive growing and processing. After the tour of the grove and the mill, we entered the tasting room where we were treated to delicious olive oil, and many local Cretan ways to enjoy it including breads, cheeses, fruits, yoghurt, honey and herbs. Under George’s guidance we tried many variations we would not have thought of before and thus discovered many new flavors…”
Private Olympia day from Katakolo port, combining ancient ruins, museum time, a honey farm visit, and optional wine tasting.
“The trip to the Bee Farm was the highlight of our holiday. The warm hospitality from 3 generations of the ladies from the same family at this small family business was amazing. It’s tucked away but is a real hidden treasure. From the proud Grandma of the family who treats you like her own to her hard working daughter who is so passionate about what she does. Our driver was great and also took us to the ruins at Olympia and the immaculate winery.”
