Taste Cretan bread, honey, cheese, olive oil, and wine while visiting Vouves olive tree and local producers from Chania.
“The guide and driver were excellent. A shorter time perhaps at the first stop?”
Tour a family winery in Corfu, taste three local wines with garden snacks, and enjoy a relaxed look at Kakotrigis and Rose wine production.
“Lovely winery. The tour and tasting with Stella was great. Many cute cats running around as well. It even has a lovely little bar and super clean toilettes which is great, when on the road all day”
Tour Zakynthos’s family winery, vineyard, orchard, and Byzantine art studio, then taste six wines with local cheeses, olive oil, and handmade bread.
“We loved this tour! The tour is around 30 minutes explaining what goes into winemaking and the vineyards. Then you get 5 wines to taste and a bunch of little things to eat. This takes around 2 hours so plan accordingly! I would recommend this place to anyone such a nice little family fan place!”
Review of a private Crete day tour combining Knossos, Titakis Winery, five local wines, and a traditional lunch in Archanes.
“Though our guide was a little difficult to find at first (our internet was poor so we didn’t get meeting spot updates, perhaps a name sign would be helpful), Yanni was amazing. We didn’t need the full time at Knossos (plus it was darn hot), so we had the flexibility to choose a museum visit or visit to an olive farm (with tasting) to fill in some of the time we didn’t use at Knossos. We loved that! Wine was tasty and the lunch in Archanes was delicious and plentiful!”
Review of Kefalonia’s private island tour, with Melissani Lake, Antisamos Beach, Myrtos, Fiscardo, caves, and Robola wine.
“It was an amazing trip with Dani (tour guide). He was very kind and explained history and showed so many nice places with beautiful views.I liked the cave and lake. I really enjoy time in Kefalonia.”
Review of Crete’s Minoan Path tour, combining Knossos, five Cretan wines, private transport, and a traditional Archanes lunch.
“Our tour required flexibility because the palace unexpectedly closed half the day we were arriving. This company was on top of it; texted with me and we agreed to change the order, add a beach, take out the winery, add an olive oil tasting. The oil was the best we had tasted in the Greek islands so far. I was glad the tour company was able that last minute. The beach we got to relax at for a couple hours was in a beautiful resort area. We didnt want to leave. Then the meal in the village was truly authentic, service was great. Glad we picked this tour.”
Take a 4 to 5-hour off-road Crete shore excursion to Manousakis Winery, with mountain views, five wines, cheese, and port transfers.
“I highly recommend our guide. His love and enthusiasm for his country and nature was inspiring and informative. I fell in love with his country because of spirit! We tasted and smelled lovely and delicious fruits and herbs on our off road adventure. The views were amazing. I can’t say enough about our time at the most beautiful, peaceful and lovely vineyard I have ever visited!! Also, the wines and our meat and cheese plate were delicious! The tastings were generous and presented with a lovely wine talk. I highly recommend!!!”
Tour a major North Greek winery near Thessaloniki, visit its museum, walk the vineyard, and taste five Greek wines with guide Dora.
“Dora was amazing and kind! The winery was beautiful and shared a lot of history. Definitely recommend :)”
Review of a private Crete day tour combining Knossos Palace, five local wines, and a traditional lunch in Archanes.
“Roula is the best! An amazing lady that not only organizes your day perfectly, but also did her best to make the most for you out of the trip! A fun day that covers Knossos Palace, a bonus to quickly see the town and museum of Heraklion after the planned winery visit, ends nicely with a traditional lunch 🥰 Thank you Roula, you are a star!”
Review of Santorini’s small-group winery tour and cooking class, with vineyard walks, local wines, Greek recipes, transport, price, and practical tips.
Explore Santorini by private Mercedes minibus, with caldera villages, wine tasting, Prophet Ilias, Megalochori, Red Beach and Perissa.
“I highly recommmend booking this day tour around Santorini. It allowed us to see various island highlights in the comfort of a private vehicle with a knowledgeable tour guide - we were able to bypass crowds / lines due to his local knowledge. The tour was also flexible on time and allowed us to customize our stops to our own liking (for instance - we bypassed one stop in order to allow us to visit a winery we wanted to try). Lastly - I can’t recommend our tour guide Arturo enough - he made everything extremely comfortable for us and gave us the exact type of tour that we wanted…”
