Description
Experience Crete on this unique experience that combines history, natural beauty and local gastronomy. Our journey takes us first through the impressive Therissos gorge. We will have coffee at the ‘’kafenio’’ of Therissos village, an authentic settlement prized for its incredible beauty and proud legacy while your destination angel explains how it played a defining role in the story of Crete.
After a short drive, surrounded by wonderful panoramic views, we will arrive at the village of Meskla to begin our gentle hike (almost 1 hour). The Sarakina Gorge is small but most impressive: to walk through its dramatic rock formations is to witness nature at its finest. Would you like to know what the mythological Greek giant Sarantapihos did to have this gorge named after him? Your destination angel will reveal that and many other tales.
Our last stop is Manousakis winery, where you’ll enjoy a classic Cretan lunch and imbibe on some excellent Cretan wines.
