Tour Details

Duration 5 hours approximately

Our first stop is the diverse village in greenery, Potamies. Guided tour of a traditional animal ranch and monitoring of daily activities of the locals.

Wandering among the gardens of the village with the fresh fruits and vegetables of the season and the aromas we will reach the dam of Aposelemis, the largest water supply project in Crete. The village of Sfendili is submerged in the waters of the dam with its impressive old houses fading on the surface of the water. We continue, for perhaps the most representative village of Crete, Avdou.
Characteristic of the settlement, all the buildings preserved and with signs with all the information about how the village was shaped then.

We continue uphill on dirt roads to the gorge of Embassa. Impressive mountains and wildlife nature with unique views. Opportunity to collect some local herbs. Time for the sunset! Beautiful images as if taken from another setting accompanied by cool Prosecco and fresh seasonal fruits. Dinner follows with local delicacies in the best tavern in the area.

Mentally and physically full of amazing locations and good food, we take you back to your hotel.
