WORLDWIDE · GREECE FARM TOURS
Olive oil, honey, cheese and a great deal of shade. The 15 below run on Crete, Mykonos and the mainland, priced a head, and the autumn pressing months are the ones worth aiming at.

Review of Crete’s Lasithi Plateau tour with Zeus Cave, Vidiani Monastery, Krasi village, and an olive mill tasting.
“We enjoyed the variety of site visits - monastery, cave, village and Olive mill along with explanations throughout the day. There was an appropriate amount of time at each destination. Lunch at the Olive mill was delicious and a great way to end the tour. Faih, the bus driver, was amazing how she navigated the bus around the hair pin bends on the mountains and through narrow village streets. The perfect way to see a special part of Crete without the stress of driving!”

Review of Crete’s Lassithi, Zeus Cave, olive farm, and Knossos tour, with honest advice on costs, walking, timing, guides, and value.
“Everything was great! We saw the most famous palces on Crete in 1 day. Knosos is the amazing place; cannot stop surprising what and how 4000 years ago all these was created...Each stop was very interesting; monasteries, villages, the cave and the view was so beautiful from any point. But the road to the cave is not an easy trail and not for everyone to handle. This has to be told in advance. Our guide Yani in a friendly manner provided very interesting info about each place we stopped. The lunch was delicious. The bus was clean with AC. Thank you”

Tour Naxos Perivoli Farm near Melanes, gather fresh produce, and cook traditional Greek dishes over a wood fire.
“Our tour guide, Tina, was wonderful! She walked us around the farm and showed us their animals and land.

We were given aprons and utensils, as well as some water, lemonade, and fresh watermelon We shredded and cut veggies, prepped fritters and tzatziki, cracked and prepped eggs, all while chatting and learning and the farm and our other tour guests. They did the actual cooking in wood stoves next to us, and then we ate. And ate. And ate. There was…”

Taste four Greek wines at a traditional Mykonian farm with a sommelier, local snacks, hotel transfers, and midday or evening departures.
“I booked this “Mykonos Farm” wine tasting expecting an authentic family farm experience. Instead, we were taken to what looked like an abandoned lot with a few dead grapevines, a chained dog, and trash piles in the middle of nowhere. Our sommelier Peter was the only bright spot — friendly and knowledgeable — but even he couldn’t rescue this depressing and misleading excursion. The “wine and local products” consisted of four wines served with stale white bread, cheap crackers, two cherry tomatoes, a few cucumber slices, and two rubbery, flavorless cheeses. We left hungry and disappointed. The “history of wine production” was four printed photos shown to us briefly. Transportation…”

We love the tour!!”

Review of Crete’s Lasithi road trip to Zeus Cave, Vidiani Monastery, Krasi and an olive mill, with costs, timing and practical tips.
“This is a very large group tour and there are two monasteries and a very touristy stop at a shop selling olive oil and wine. Kids loved the pottery class though and it is a safe clean way to go to the cave which was the main reason we had taken it. It’s a beautiful drive but it took 10 hours total given multiple pick ups and drops - and the monasteries and olive tree stop were extra hours we wish we had just been able to skip.”
Every kind of farm on the site, in one place.
