Overview

This tour will give travelers the opportunity to explore interesting places at the Plateau of Lassithi, the area where Zeus was born according to the mythology. Climbed at 850meters above the sea level, the plain of Lasithi has the highest production of agricultural products in Crete. There are 18 villages built on the surrounding mountains of the plateau. Clients will admire a panoramic drive through the plateau, the Monastery of Vidiani, Lasinthos Eco Park and the traditional village of Krasi. Following, the participants will be guided in an Olive Mill Farm and see the production of olive soap, olive oil etc. and enjoy an unforgettable meal made from local products, at their own expense at the Olive Mill Farm, with unique aromas from the surrounding wild mountain and view to the Aegean Sea.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
