Off-the-beaten-track tour of eastern Crete



There still exists a purity of experiences in this world, and you can find it here in East Crete.

Have the inside track from the top local insider unearthing gateways to an unseen world by the comfort of luxury chauffeured vehicle at your disposal. Venture from village to village to see the island through the eyes of a local.

Get off the beaten track and follow archaic trails across the Minoan mountains, embraced by ancient forests. From a perfect mountainside, the peak takes in the bird’s eye panoramas of the Libyan and Aegean Seas. Then lose yourself in the deep veins of magnificent gorges that host wild beauty with a soft heart.

Discover a secret paradise of the forefathers, nestled within an oasis of towering-aged trees and perennially flowing waters. Revel in genuine tastes of Cretan cuisine with local cooking techniques on a wood oven or open fire.
