Beskrivelse

Den lille øya Spinalonga ligger bare et steinkast fra Kreta, men et besøk på øya er som å ta et skritt tilbake i tid. Murveggene som omgir øya inneholder århundrer av historie. Opplev alt gjennom øynene til en lokal på denne unike heldagsturen, der vi også besøker to kystbyer i Mirabello Bay. Veta, en av guidene våre, sier: "Du besøker den vakre fiskerlandsbyen Elounda og kystbyen Agios Nikolaos. Du får også prøve tradisjonell kretisk mat på en taverna."

Øya Spinalonga har vært mange ting opp gjennom årene, blant annet en venetiansk utpost og en osmansk by. Den var til og med en koloni for spedalske, noe som har ført til at den har fått kallenavnet "Tårenes øy". Du får se festningen og kolonien som stengte på 1950-tallet på en guidet rundtur til fots. Vi ankommer tidlig og unngår de store folkemengdene.

Etter denne opplevelsen, seiler vi tilbake til kystbyen Elounda. Her får du tid til å utforske på egen hånd i ditt eget tempo. Ta en dukkert, slapp av i solen eller sett deg ned på en kafé. Vi spiser lunsj på en lokal restaurant. Dagen avsluttes med et besøk i Agios Nikolaos, en elegant liten badeby som ligger skjermet av to øyer.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Discover Cretan Farm Life

Small-scale, family-run farms are integral to the Mediterranean diet that Crete is so famous for. A local family will welcome you to their Mitato, a small farmhouse, where you'll be greeted with the genuine warmth of Cretan hospitality. Listen to the local farmer tell the intriguing tale of King Minoas who watched from his observatory, and alerted locals to incoming pirates. Greetings over, it's time for a hands-on bread-making lesson, learning the techniques for typical Cretan bread, made with wheat and barley flour. Then, witness their cheese-making skills using goat's milk from the farm. Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in, helping out with daily farm tasks like feeding the goats, pigs, chickens, and rabbits, and tending to the gardens. The adventure continues with a snail hunt over the mountainside, exclusive to National Geographic travellers, peeking under rocks, and among shrubs and flowers. As the day unfolds, your collected treasures, including snails, eggs, fruit, and vegetables, become the ingredients for lunch. Alongside the family, you'll prepare a feast of local delicacies, all made from the products of your day's work. Finish off the experience with a taste of Crete's spirit, Raki, and why not sing along to their traditional Cretan ‘Mantinades,' - traditional Cretan couplets that express sentiments about Cretan daily life.

In the shade of the olive trees, you can try local raki known as ‘tsikoudia' with olives to nibble on while discussing the cultural and societal significance of olive cultivation in Crete.

Back on the Olive Path, seize the chance to taste fresh figs, almonds, and grapes, see what the locals are growing, and find out all about the Cretan lifestyle and diet. Then, at an olive farm, you can sample olives, fresh tomatoes, and raki before your olive oil tasting session begins – a great opportunity to learn how to taste oils like a professional and compare the flavor profiles of different varieties. Finish off the day with a cooking lesson on various ways to use olive oil in Cretan cuisine. Authentic dishes, such as tzatziki and Greek salad will feature, and you'll find out why the traditional Cretan diet is so beneficial to health and longevity.

You'll spend the day watching history come to life as you tour the grounds of the palace, before crossing over to Heraklion for some free time in the capital.Once the hub of Crete's Minoan civilisation, Knossos Palace sits in the heart of what's considered to be Europe's oldest settlement. You'll enjoy a guided tour around its treasures, stopping by the throne room, royal apartments, frescoes and more. And with fast-track access, there's no waiting around in queues.It's then time to head to Heraklion, the island's capital. See the 17th-century Morozini Lions fountain and the 400-year-old Venetian Loggia – which is still the city hall – during a short guided walk around the city centre. We'll round the day off by taking you to the open markets for some free time. Poke around stalls laden with hand-made trinkets and fresh local produce or stop off for a coffee at a local café for some people watching. Other must-sees include the Koule Fortress and the Church of Agios Titos.
