The Essence of Crete Safari: Villages of Apokoronas & Profit Ilia
Overview
We can regret our regrets – the nagging voice of “I didn’t go” and “I wish I had”. Our advice is don’t hesitate and let yourself go in truly authentic experiences of Crete.
We have carefully designed this bespoke jeep safari trip to be taken all at once. Cretan village hopping. Unspoiled local lifestyle. Genuine flavors. Ancient temples. Off-the-map itineraries through the white mountains.
And the best part? We will take you to the shepherd’s hut “Mitato” as it is called in the Kreta dialect. At an altitude of 1300m, let our Safari Experts engage you with this ancient lifestyle that is crystallized by a pure life and archaic traditions. Not to mention the surrounding wilderness that speaks with emotions and vivid moments.
