Cần Quan Tâm
Omalia Olive Press
Our first stop is visiting a 4th generation olive oil factory. You see firsthand the modern techniques and equipment used alongside traditional methods passed down through generations. As you explore the factory, you have the opportunity to taste the fruits of this labor – rich, golden olive oil freshly pressed from the harvest. Each sip is a revelation, a burst of flavor that transports you to the sun-drenched hillsides where the olives were grown. But beyond the sensory experience, visiting an olive oil factory in Crete offers a deeper understanding of the island's culture and heritage. Olive oil is not just a culinary staple here; it is a symbol of life itself, revered for its health benefits and intrinsic connection to the land. As you bid farewell to the factory, you carry with you not just a bottle of olive oil, but a piece of Crete's soul – a tangible reminder of the timeless bond between this ancient land and its most precious fruit.

5.00This was supposed to be a group trip, but the other family had to cancel and we ended up with an "accidentally private" tour. It was above expectations, specially because of our guide, Spyros. He does everything to ensure that you don't feel he is a guide presenting touristic spots, but a local presenting his home. He tells interesting personal stories, seems to deeply know everyone he presents, and show a clear love for the island. He made some stops to show us local herbs and even showed us the impressive garden of his family home. The tour itself is very nice. Pickup without issues, comfortable van and free water. I was impressed at how well the Knossos Palace is conserved. The unexpected highlight was the stop to pick fresh strawberries and eat them with fresh local yoghurt.

5.00If you’re even thinking about exploring Crete, stop what you’re doing and book a tour with Spyros—right now. This was, hands down, one of the most unforgettable experiences of our entire trip to Greece. Spyros didn’t just take us through the Cretan countryside—he immersed us in it. From the moment we met him, it felt like we were being welcomed by an old friend. He’s not only incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and traditions of Crete, but he shares it all with such heart and humor that every stop feels like a story coming to life. We drove by olive groves, visited hidden mountain villages, met locals we never would’ve found on our own, and tasted the most incredible food—each moment made more meaningful by Spyros’ passion for his homeland. What could have been a simple sightseeing tour became something deeply personal and genuinely magical. Spyros has that rare ability to connect with people instantly and make you feel like you’re not just visiting a place—you’re becoming a part of it. If you want a cookie-cutter tour, look elsewhere. But if you want to see the real Crete—the beauty, the soul, the stories—then Spyros is your guy. This tour didn’t just exceed our expectations; it redefined them. 1000% recommend.

5.00Wonderful way to see the highlights around Heraklion and get a flavor of Crete. My family and I signed up for this tour a few weeks ago and spent the day with Spyros. He was extremely kind, knowledgeable, accommodating, and well-connected with the locals. Aside from Knossos Palace, the activities were also very immersive and not too heavy on museum-style learning, which we really appreciated. Especially the strawberry tasting - hands down the BEST strawberries we've ever had. Highly recommend!
Loved this all day Crete adventure!

5.00It was beautiful and informative from start to finish. Beginning with our wonderful tour guide, Spiros, through the entire day visiting many incredible locations on the island. Tasting authentic Greek coffee in a lovely village on the Lasithi plateau to the pottery studio where we made pots! Delicious lunch in a taverna and strawberry picking. It was wonderful!!! Thank you Spiros!!
