Overview
Embark on a journey through time with a visit to the legendary Palace of Knossos, where the ancient Minoan civilization comes vividly to life.
As you wander through the ruins of this remarkable palace complex, you’ll be captivated by its maze-like corridors, impressive architectural remains, and colorful frescoes that whisper stories of a highly sophisticated society dating back thousands of years.
The atmosphere is both awe-inspiring and serene, inviting you to explore every nook and cranny while uncovering the mysteries of Crete’s distant past.
The experience continues with a visit to a family-owned winery, where the third generation, Emmanuela and Niki, proudly carry on a tradition of organic farming and authentic Cretan winemaking.
Nestled within its own vineyards, the winery is a pioneering, gravity-fed facility designed to allow wine to be produced as naturally as possible.
Enjoy a guided wine tasting featuring five carefully selected Domaine wines, along with traditional tsikoudia made from local grapes.
The tasting is complemented by samples of virgin olive oil and a delicious platter of selected Cretan cheeses, deli meats, and handmade marmalade, offering a true taste of Crete’s rich culinary heritage.
This tour perfectly blends history, culture, and local flavors, creating an unforgettable experience that connects Crete’s ancient past with its living traditions.
