Beskrivning

Gör dig redo för ett offroad-äventyr som tar dig långt bortom allfarvägarna. Utforska de lantliga hörnen av Kreta och fördjupa dig i naturen när du kör genom bergen på grusvägar. Upplev Kretas hjärta - dess rika mytologi, varierande flora och fauna och fascinerande lokala liv. Katerina, en av våra lokalguider, säger: "Kretas bergstoppar ekar av berättelser från den grekiska mytologin - Zeus, den grekiska guden som ansvarar för åska och blixtar, föddes i en grotta i Kretas berg, och det var här på Kreta som Theseus dödade minotauren.

Vi börjar med att köra längs natursköna vägar och olivlundar och passerar fornlämningar när vi kör uppför Kretas kullar. Vi stannar sedan till i en liten by där du kan smaka på raki och olivolja tillsammans med lokalborna. Kretensisk olivolja är uppskattad för sin renhet och smak, liksom för sin höga halt av polyfenoler och låga syrahalt, vilket gör den mycket hälsosam.

Härifrån börjar det verkliga offroadäventyret när vi kör upp i bergen och följer en gammal stig som användes av herdar för att nå flockarna högt uppe på sommarbetet. I enkla herdehyddor används färsk getmjölk för att göra en välsmakande hemlagad ost. Därefter besöker vi en familjeägd taverna för en typisk lokal lunch - ett vegetariskt alternativ finns också - med obegränsat med vin. Du kommer att upptäcka en annan sida av Kreta med professionella och informativa chaufförer som berättar allt om sin ö - från lokalt liv och historia till djurliv och mat.

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.
