Explore Crete’s olive oil, wine, raki, soap making, and local food on a small-group tour from Heraklion with hotel pickup.

“Interesting to see and speak with the makers of olive oil, raki and wine in Crete. Pickups and drop-offs were on time and convenient. Alex at Cretan Dragon Farm was entertaining and informative, offering us some dragonfruit herbal tea and olive marmalade to try alongside olive oil, the olives themselves, and a yoghurt bergamot dessert. The lady at the raki stop - a very small family-run operation - was passionate and friendly, letting us sample lots of wines and liqueurs as well as her raki.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 15 reviews · 3 to 4 hours (approx.) · from $216

Review of Crete’s private Peza winery tour with olive oil, cheese, wine tasting, lunch, pickup, and a choice of three wineries.

“Beautiful location, decent food, nice wine. My rating reflects the value of the experience. Felt it was quite pricey for what we received. Driver was great. We paid $142 per person for a shared plate lunch and a tasting of five wines (2 red, 2 whites, and one sparkling). No offer of coffee or dessert. You may be better off going directly there on your own and getting a similar experience with one of the packages the winery offers at half the cost.”

Tour a Sicilian soap museum, make your own bar, taste olive oil, and enjoy an aperitivo among the olive trees near Sciacca.

“The whole experience was delightful, from the very first moment we met Alessandro he showcased not only an incredible and welcoming sunny disposition but a profound passion and knowledge of the subject, he very much inspired us in the matter of soap and olives but even more on the sustainable agriculture and on the folklore of our land. The aperitivo on the roof was the perfect ending of the interesting and magical day”
