Captivating Crete

  • Including flight

  • 3 excursions and visits

  • 3 days - free time

Crete is one of the most beautiful, interesting and diverse Greek islands to explore - we'll tick off some of its highlights on our Captivating Crete holidays. Stroll along the harbour - guarded by a Venetian fortress - of the island capital, Heraklion. Look out across the Lasithi Plateau, dotted with white-sailed windmills, then peek into the cave where Zeus is said to have been born. Sit back as the rugged, mountainous landscape of western Crete slides by, and enjoy a drink with new friends in one of charming Rethymnon’s harbourside bars.

Taste authentic Cretan olive oil

1 / 1

Savour the flavours of Crete as you sample locally-made olive oil. It’s been made at Avdou’s olive oil mill for centuries, and you’ll witness how traditional methods are combined with modern practices. The method of cold-pressing the olives makes the quality among the best olive oil in the world.
